Pneumatic seed drill VEGA 8 PROFI is designed for precision sowing, using minimum and traditional cultivation technologies. Provides sowing of seeds of corn, sunflower, soybeans and other row crops with the simultaneous introduction of mineral fertilizers and soil press rolling in the sown rows.
Thanks to this method of aggregation, this seeder works with tractors with power from 80 hp, which provides lower fuel consumption compared to mounted counterparts.
A protective mesh for sifting fertilizers is installed in the fertilizer tank, which helps to prevent the ingress of stones and large objects that can disrupt the operation of the seeder
• 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.
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.
• Double disc coulter made of boron steel of increased hardness has an increased resource up to 100%.
• Ability to regulate pressure on the soil up to 280 kg.
• Ability to use a lump or slotted disc.
• Adjustable V-shaped press wheel.
• Gauge wheels ensure accurate seed placement in depth. Gauge wheels with spokes eliminate soil clogging in the inner cavity of the wheel.
• High position of the sowing unit - excludes clogging with crop residues.
A protective mesh for sifting fertilizers is installed in the fertilizer tank, which helps to prevent the ingress of stones and large objects that can disrupt the operation of the seeder.
Dynamic design of the chain tensioners on the sections, eliminates chain dropping, during the operation of the drill.
New gauge wheels with spokes prevent the adhesion of soil on the inner surface of the wheel, and as a result, damage to the bearing assembly of the disc opener hub of the section is eliminated and its service life is increased.
Disc coulters with new bearing unit. The seeders use double-row ball bearings of the FKL firm, which have an increased service life and a greater resistance to dynamic loads.
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 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.
A gearbox unit of 5x5 gears has been installed, now the farmer has the opportunity to use a wider range of seeding rates, due to the bigger number of gear ratios of the gearbox wheels.
Electronic control system HELIOS is installed on the VEGA 8 PROFI seeders, which monitors the passage of seeds in each opener, the speed of movement and transmits information to a monitor installed in the tractor cab, which allows keeping records of the sown area.
Design of the coupling hitch allows for aggregation with tractors of different manufacturers.
• 4 sets of seeding discs;
| Sown crop | Diameter of holes, mm | Number of holes, pcs. |
|---|---|---|
| Corn, castor oil plant, broad beans, beans | 5.5 | 30 |
| Sorghum, sunflower (fines) | 2.2 | 40 |
| Sunflower | 3.0 | 30 |
|

4.0 | 30 |
• clod(lump) disposal set;
•cutting disks set;
• information device "HELIOS";
• transportation device.
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.
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.
Production line was equipped with a powder coating line -Ideal-line (Denmark). This painting technology makes it possible to produce high-quality paintwork with a guaranteed service life up to 8 years.
Usege of hardware with a strength class, at least 8.8, ensures reliability and durability of exploitation.
Fuel consumption when working with a 90 hp tractor is 2.6 - 2.9 l/ha.
