Flexible and Modular Seed Drill System
The Aerosem F pneumatic front hopper seed drill and the Amico F hopper from Pöttinger are an established combination. To provide more flexibility, Aerosem F coulter rails are now available individually. Also, the Aerosem F is also available as a rigid 3 metre version to complement the folding 4, 5 and 6 metre seed drills. The new Aerosem F is ideally suited to the requirements of small to medium-sized farms.
For the new season, the Amico F hopper gains an external control terminal to make it easier to operate during calibration. In addition, GPS tramlines can now be selected visually.
A Balanced Pneumatic Drill
The innovative technology of the Aerosem F front hopper seed drill makes it possible to carry out drilling and fertilisation in just one pass. The precision Dual Disc coulters with a diameter of 350 mm and a coulter pressure of up to 60 kg ensure perfect seed placement and accuracy for optimum seed emergence. With the ‘Perfekt’ tines and harrow tines, there are two variants to choose from, with the straight harrow tines designed to operate as a levelling tine harrow.
Modular system to cover the full farming year
Spreading fertiliser, micro-granules, cover crops or two components simultaneously using the single shoot system, the Amico F hopper can be teamed up with a wide range of machines such as the Aerosem FDD coulter rail, the Terradisc T disc harrow, the Terria stubble cultivator, the Flexcare V row crop cultivator, as well as with machines from other manufacturers. Whether it is drilling, hoeing, fertilising, sowing a cover crop, stubble cultivation, or primary tillage, the Amico F hopper integrates cleverly to become a key component of an overall system that sees a lot of action throughout the whole farming year.
The Aerosem F coulter rail, which is now also available individually, provides a flexible drilling solution working together with machines such as the Fox D compact combination or power harrows from the Lion series to fulfil a wide range of requirements.
With the IDS distribution head and the Amico pressurised front hopper, precise distribution across the full working width is achieved for a wide range of seed materials, from cereals to cover crop mixtures. The optional partitioned pressurised hopper with double metering unit enables seed and fertiliser to be applied in a single step. Capacities of 1,700 litres and 2,400 litres and a division of 60:40 cater for a variety of applications.
Thanks to the weight distribution being balanced by the separation of the seed drill combination and seed hopper, the load on the tractor is evened out, the pressure applied to the ground is reduced, and safety during road transport is enhanced.
