☑ Increasing productivity due to the option to higher the sowing speed up to 15 km/h without losing the quality of seeding.
☑ Increasing uniformity of the seeding rate achieved due to the use of an electric drive. The seeding rate does not depend on the speed and slippage of the wheels, which eliminates gaps.
☑ The accuracy and range of the seeding rates setting enhanced. The electric drive allows adjusting various seeding rates in a wide range crops.
☑ Time saved when changing crops and changing the seed rates. Easy and smooth adjustment on the tablet from the tractor cab.
☑ Reducing the cost of seed up to 3 000 euros per year (taking into account the area under cultivation of 1 000 ha) due to the elimination of reseeding.
☑ Savings in spare parts and maintenance costs of up to 400 euros per year by reducing the number of operating units.
☑ Crop yield increases up to 17% using options PRO AFP.
☑ The total savings of the farmer, taking into account the above, is up to 5 000 euros ha per year (taking into account the area under cultivation of 1 000 ha).
☑ This planter works with class 1.4 tractors.
Installed electric drive and software allow you to perform functions using a tablet from the tractor cab:
- individual automatic disconnection of sections;
- sequential control of variable seeding rate;
- turning compensation for the angular speed of rotation for each seeding unit;
- manual or automatic control of the seeding rate by Rx task maps;
- quality control of sowing seeds in the form of histograms;
- reports on maps of actual application with color highlighting problem areas;
- adjustment rotation speed of electric motors is carried out: by manual input of the required parameters; signal from third-party GPS receivers; speed radar signal.
The seeding units are driven by electric drives with electronic control and seeding control, combining ease of maintenance, reliability and accuracy of seeding corn, sunflower and other row crops. Seeding rate adjustment is carried out from the tractor cab by the operator using the buttons on the monitor.
With this system, the gearbox, shafts, chains and gears are eliminated from the metering units, there is no need to waste time changing pinions to set a different seeding rate.
Working speed increases
A unique wireless system with electric drives on the Ukrainian market. The operator uses an Android tablet to control the system. The tablet connects to the controller using a Bluetooth connection.
Controller uses a patented wireless protocol to communicate with the planter controller. This means that the only wiring on the drill is to power the electric motors.
Controller integrates with any third-party GPS receivers to determine the location.
• provides accurate single-grain dosing of seeds;
• the presence of upper and lower adjustable seed spreaders, that is, the absence of twin seeds;
• easy and convenient maintenance without working tools;
• the presence of a viewing window - ease of adjustment;
• no load on the housing of the seeding unit - durability of its use.
Constant depth control is ensured by spoked wheels mounted on a balancer, which allows each roller to move independently, even when one of the wheels hits an obstacle and unevenness (e.g. stones) without changing the seeding depth. The spoked copying wheels prevent the earth from sticking to the inner surface of the wheel and as a consequence, damage to the bearing unit of the disc coulter hub of the section is eliminated and the service life of the disc coulter is increased.
Cleaners are installed to clean soil sticking on the copying wheels and double disc coulters for sowing seeds, which ensures uniform sowing depth on a wet background.
Precise and easy adjustment of sowing depth is ensured by rotating the handle relative to the scale.
The V-shaped press roller compacts the soil around the seeds and allows moisture to be drawn into the sowing area, which ensures better contact between the seeds and the soil and promotes earlier and more uniform germination.
It is installed in front of the working section and ensures removal of clods and dry soil from the sowing area.
*recommended for use with traditional technology.
The unique design of the cutting disc ensures maximum efficiency and high quality cutting of crop residues and soil cutting. The conical waves of the cutting disc cut the soil and effectively loosen the side walls of the furrow directly in front of the coulter. The disc waves enter the soil perpendicular to the surface, which gives maximum cutting effect, and exit the soil parallel to the surface, which allows to “control” ejection of soil.
*recommended for No-Till, Mini-Till with small amounts of crop residues.
This unit is designed to clear the furrow in front of the double-disc coulter from plant debris. It provides the double-disc coulter with uniform and high-quality sowing of row crops.
* recommended for No-Till, Mini-Till with large amounts of crop residues
The design of the cutting disc ensures high-quality cutting of compacted soil. The row cleaner effectively clears the furrow from the abundance of crop residues. This design provides the double-disc coulter with accurate and uniform placement of seeds into the furrow at any soil density.
*recommended for direct sowing with large amounts of crop residues
Seeder is equipped with plastic hoppers made of high quality polyethylene. This, in turn, provides a significantly lower hopper weight; resistance to various types of corrosion; and vibration resistance. In addition, these bins do not require periodic painting.
VEGA 8 PROFI seeder has a total capacity of the seed hoppers - 416 l, and 680 l - for fertilizers. So, for example, at the seeding rate of corn - 5 seeds per 1 running meter - the seeder can sow 6 hectares without additional loading.
This system represents polymer seeding units with polymer reels that are not subject to corrosion, and it enables to quickly and smoothly change the application rate by turning the adjustment knob. Thanks to this, there is no need in a device for changing fertilizer application rates.
Usege of double-disc fertilizer openers on Vega seeders has improved the quality of soil fertilization. By the consumers request, single-disc fertilizer openers could be installed on the seeder,optionally.
The fertilizer bunker is equipped with a protective screen for fertilizers screening, which helps to prevent the ingress of stones and large objects that can disrupt the operation of the seeder.
Due to the fact, that the fan is installed on the trailer unit, the possibility of cardan breakage during turns is excluded, and there is no needs to turn off the tractor PTO shaft, which eliminates the loss of seeds and reduces the time for turning around.
Use of high-pressure hoses of improved quality with double swaging allows the drill to operate under more demanding conditions without the fear of hydraulic fluid leaks and breaks under high pressure.
Usege of high-strength pipes of European steels allows to reduce the weight of the frame structure, while increasing its strength and rigidity, which leads to decreasing tractor fuel consumption.
Frame tube, acting as a receiver, provides a stable value of vacuum in all seeding units (it allows keeping heavy seeds in the holes of the seeding discs of the outer sections).
Transportation device in the basic configuration, provides additional protection against tire damage by plant stems and other objects on the surface of the field, with a transport width of 2.67 m allows you to move the seeder on public roads.
Design of the coupling hitch allows for aggregation with tractors of different manufacturers.
