Big-Bags

Seed hopper

The headstock is integrated into the seed hopper - centre wall and bulkhead plate for highest possible strength. A partition plate inside the hopper prevents the seed from wandering to one side when working across slopes. A seed level indicator is fitted as standard. LED Lighting for seed hopper is optional.

Rugged cover with rubber seal and gas-filled pressure cylinder

Two angles of opening with limit stop (85° or 103° for Big-Bags). The design of the seed hopper cover is unique in the farming business and has been adopted from the car industry. Instead of being welded, the cover plate is bonded to its frame so that no weld seams are visible.

Agitator shaft

The front and rear wall of the VITASEM seed hopper is so steep that all the seed flows to the metering system without the need for an agitator.

• Rotating agitator shaft optional for the seed types which tend to bridge.

• The oscillating agitator is very effective for seed material that is liable to segregate or does not flow well, such as grass seed.

• Can be switched on and off manually in a single move.

Seed hopper

The seed is drawn straight from underneath the feed funnel. This system ensures uniform seed flow, even when working up and down slopes.

Empties completely - no cleaning required

Wide, funnel-shaped outlets above each metering wheel ensure precision feed right down to the last grain, guaranteeing minimum residues and low minimum filling quantities. The wide opening angle of the bottom flap ensures that the metering area is completely emptied.

Loading platform

Side access on the left with folding step and handrail along seed hopper. The secure handrail is mounted directly on the seed hopper (not on the cover) for enhanced safety. Easy to fill thanks to plenty of space for seed sacks, the handrail on the seed hopper and the large hopper opening.
