New Subsoiler Effective Down to 60cm
Lemken have launched the Onyx subsoiler offering farmers a professional solution for working depths of up to 60 cm.
Available in two rigid versions of 3 and 4m working width, the subsoiler has a simple and robust design. The fully welded frame has a 90 cm underframe clearance, which provides ample space to the base frame even at the maximum working depth.
The frame also features a very clean design with two beams spaced 84 cm apart, ensuring easy access for inspection and maintenance.
Different points for different effects
The centrepiece of the Onyx is its sophisticated share system, which comes in two variants with a 42.5 cm leg spacing. It can be used with the OM (Onyx Mixing share) or the OL (Onyx Loosening share). Both shares are hard-faced as standard and optionally available with carbide coating to withstand wear-intensive operating conditions. The OM share, which is designed to move and intensively mix the soil, is mounted on a curved leg with a guide plate. With a working depth of 25 to 40 cm, it is ideal for improving the soil structure through medium-depth loosening and subsequent levelling.
Thanks to the hydraulic depth adjustment, the Onyx can be operated conveniently directly from the tractor, making it ideal for variable operating conditions.
The OL share, on the other hand, is mounted on a straight leg and is designed for deep loosening at working depths between 40 and 60 cm. It lifts the soil, creating cracks due to the lifting action and the weight of the soil itself.
In the right conditions, this breaks up compaction and improves water infiltration through the resulting cracks. Both points can also be equipped with wings. To ensure a wider and more even loosening of the soil, as well as a better mixing in of organic matter.
Well thought-out roller technology
For levelling and reconsolidation of the loosened soil, there are two rollers specially adapted to the Onyx: the DSW 580 double spiked roller and the RSW 600 tube bar roller.
A quick-change roller system enables the rollers to be changed quickly, providing maximum flexibility in variable soil conditions.
The Onyx will be available in limited numbers from 2026.
