Kverneland u-drill plus

Step 2: Prepare the seedbed

The disc harrow section consists of two rows of aggressively pitched conical discs.

The discs are 5mm thick and hardened for long life. Thanks to their conical shape, the cutting angle remains constant. The high rotation speed ensures an excellent cutting quality over the entire working width. The distance between the sowing rows can be

12.5or 16.7cm.

The MD disc section consists of two rows of straight waved discs. The MD disc havebeen designed for vertical penetration through the flutes. The blade keeps turning, penetrating and cutting even in the most challenging conditions. A seedbed is created only in strips of 3 to 5 cm in width, in which the seed is placed by the CD coulter. The MD disc section is only available for machines with 16.7 cm row distance and with the u-drill plus  only possible in combination with double entry fertiliser injection.

Step 3: First pack, then seed

For perfect depth control of the coulters and an optimum seed-to-soil contact providing excellent capillary action, the loosened soil is re-compacted by a large tyre packer. The large tyre diameter of 900mm significantly reduces the tractive power required by the machine and thus ensures a consistently good work result.

Step 4: Drill and pack at constant seeding depth

The narrow profile of the coulters with their slightly offset steel discs allow easy penetration into the soil. Thus, little pressure is required in this step and only little soil is displaced. The coulter pressure of 100kg can, therefore, be primarily used for the pressing by the integrated press wheels. The result: a uniform seeding depth even at high working speeds! The seeding depth and the coulter pressure can be centrally controlled by the push of a button from the tractor cab – this saves additional time.

The stable depth control and the pressing of the seed produce a capillary system in the soil that ensures access to water and excellent germination.

Step 5: Closing

Harrowing the soil completes the drilling. S-shaped or finger harrows ensure an optimum covering of the seeds. The working intensity can be set by the stepless pressure adjustment and at three different angles. To prevent damage to the harrow when reversing, it is equipped with an effective reversing device.

The u-drill comes with a fully automated headland management system. This saves the driver lots of time and eases the operation. Using just one button, the driver can initiate a headland sequence with wheels, discs and coulter bar all capable of automatic operation in timed stages. The lifting sequence starting with the disc section ensures a constant depth control until the headland.

As the headland sequence starts, the metering device stops automatically – avoiding double seeding. The seed hoses are empty at the headland. This saves up to 5% of seed.

The driver can concentrate on steering the machine and the correct operation. In addition double and/or missed seeding is prevented. With headland management the job can be done more quickly, precisely and efficiently. The drill requires only one double-acting spool to operate.

• The new metering device is electric driven by e-com and is fully ISOBUS compatible.
• GEOCONTROL by GPS signal is possible which avoids double seeding.
• Special sensors ensure functionality from the tractor cab.
• Four standard rotors are delivered for fine and large seeds or fertiliser.
• A fifth rotor is offered as an option for maize, sunflowers and greening seeds.
• The exchange of the rotors is quick and easily done without any tools.
• Application rates from 1 to 400kg/ha are possible (depending on working speed and width).
• The metering device is always easily accessible. 

Calibration

• Very simple calibration test due to the separate seed guidance.
• A remote control allows the driver to operate the calibration process at the metering device.  
• No gear has to be adjusted. The driver simply enters the desired values into the terminal, presses one button to start at the metering device and that’s it.
• The calibration is done automatically.
• A calibration flap with an integrated gate prevents any seed from dropping into the hose.

Depending on the individual agronomic requirements, the fertiliser can be applied either directly in the seeding row or in between two rows.

Fertiliser placement by the disc harrow

The fertiliser outlets in the second row of the disc harrow are allocated in such a way that the fertiliser line is applied exactly in between two sowing rows. All plants have exactly the same distance to the incorporated fertiliser depot. By adjusting the working depth of the disc harrow the depth of the fertiliser placement is controlled.

Fertiliser application in the seeding row

The fertiliser application in the seeding row is done by an extra fertiliser outlet. The fertiliser is placed in mixture with the seeds. This is especially suitable for phosphoric fertiliser in order to support the initial germination and development of the plants in the most efficient way. The special design of the coulter with two exits also allows the seeding of two different crops in just one working pass.
