TERRADISC T with AMICO F

For high output application during stubble cultivation or seedbed preparation, PÖTTINGER has equipped trailed 8 and 10 m wide TERRADISC T models with a distribution system. The tillage and simultaneous seed or fertiliser application steps can now be completed in a single pass.

Versatile operations

TERRADISC disc harrows with a distribution system can be used for stubble cultivation as well as loosening to a depth of 15 cm. Different applications can be covered by a distribution rail that can be flexibly adjusted in angle:

• Apply fertiliser for rapid plant development

• Sow cover crops

High output operations

In just one pass, fertiliser and cover crops are sown directly into the soil using this resource-saving process.

By feeding fertiliser into the raised flow of soil, it is incorporated and covered straight away. The fertiliser does not lose any of its effectiveness and is immediately available for the plants. This process is suitable for seedbed preparation in spring or for replenishing nutrients with granular trace elements in autumn.

Cover crops are directly stimulated to germinate because they are immediately covered and consolidated by the packer. This can be done during shallow stubble cultivation.

Driving speeds above 10 km/h in combination with the wide working widths of 8 and 10 m ensure an enormous output.

Reliable tillage tools

Large diameter, scalloped discs with a diameter of 580 mm slice into the ground and get the soil moving. The aggressive setting of the tools ensures reliable soil entry, even in the driest conditions. The TWIN ARM suspension system prevents the discs from deviating sideways on hard ground. This ensures that the whole surface is moved, which ultimately ensures uniform application of the seed material and fertiliser.

Ingenious distribution system

The tube is designed to be telescopic and is guided centrally on the main frame. The distributor head is located in the middle at the height of the rear roller. In the transport position, the distributor head folds forward to form a compact unit.

The large cross-section of 150 mm allows high quantities of fertiliser or seed to be applied at high driving speeds. When the distributor head is folded out, the hoses tighten all the way to the scattering plates so that no blockages occur. As a result, the material is conveyed without obstruction, ensuring a reliable flow.
