Optima R (SX)
Seeder | Pneumatic Precision Drill
Kverneland Optima R - cost-efficient - precise - straight forward
The rigid Kverneland Optima R pneumatic precision drill with SX high speed sowing units for cost-efficient precise sowing
Description
The Kverneland Optima is the universal pneumatic precision drill for maize, sunflowers, unpelleted beet, pelleted beet, soya beans, peas, and many other types of seeds. The rigid Optima R is the lighter version complementing the Optima RS within the full range of Optima models. The Optima R can be used for a whole diversity of applications and offers great capacity by increased working widths from 3 to 6m.
The Optima R can be combined with a large central fertiliser hopper which has a capacity of 1,000 l or a front hopper system to reduce the fill-up time. Moreover, the combination of the Optima with the iXtra LiFe allows the application of liquid fertiliser during seeding. A lengthwise transport device is not available.
The Optima R can be combined with an optional fertiliser spreader or front hopper and micro-granular applicator, micro-drill.
Features
- Stable design, modular system, low maintenance costs, high degree of wear resistance and optimum depth placement.
- For fertiliser placement Kverneland supplies hoppers for different applications.
- The chain drive for metering can be adjusted from 106 to 390kg per hectare at a distance between rows of 75cm.
- The fertiliser applicator is driven centrally by an easily accessible side mounted gear box.
- Fertilising coulter, standard seeding with narrow coulter design and stable, reliable construction, coil spring protection from sideways forces
- Mulch seeding notched double-disc coulter for blockage-free and precise fertiliser placement by a Ø 350mm notched double-disc Coulter.
GEOCONTROL - Cost saving with immediate payback
Seeding with GPS and GEOCONTROL in combination with an electric driven precision drill is a major step towards precision and cost saving. These machines are all equipped with ISOBUS technology which with the help of the IsoMatch Tellus terminal, can be easily controlled.
Each electric driven seeding element, in combination with GPS and GEOCONTROL, is automatically switched on or off in exactly the right place, ensuring there is no overlap with any row that has already been seeded. This is especially handy in triangular fields, on curved or irregular shaped headlands.
