THE WIDEST CULTIVATOR ON THE MARKET

Since their market introduction, SWIFTER SM wide working width cultivators are the largest of the market, featuring a working width of 14 to 18 meters, ideal for powerful tractors. With increasingly short weather windows for seedbed preparation, large farms are searching more outputs, to process more hectares on the same period. The widest SWIFTER SM cultivator efficiently handles over 230 hectares daily. Independent spring-loading of working sections ensures precise terrain contouring, even at such widths. Transport, folding, and unfolding are made easy and secure with the BAR-LOCK system.

UP TO 8 OPERATIONS IN ONE PASS

Creating a seedbed for proper and even crop emergence.

Combining several operations into one means fewer passes through the field and lower costs of seedbed preparation. The front levelling bar perfectly levels any unevenness. The front slatted roller crumbles the clods. The tine section undercuts, aerates and warms up the soil layer. The final clod crumbling is provided by various types of rollers in combination with other equipment behind the rollers.

EXCHANGEABLE WORKING SECTIONS

Adjusting seedbed preparation to the needs of the crop.

A share section

This working section can be used for summer and autumn preparation when soil needs to be loosened, undercut and mixed after the previous harvest. The 270 mm shares in two overlapping rows undercut the soil profile along the entire machine width, creating a firm bottom. At the same time, soil is aggressively processed thanks to the working angle of the shares, creating a loosening top layer. Each sweep is mounted on a flexible tine that provides a 3D effect (horizontal and vertical movement) which protects the sweep from damage.

SB section

The section is especially suitable for spring cultivation before of planting sugar beet where it is required to adequately manage spring moisture, but still prepare a precise seedbed. The sweep angle does not mix soil vertically, but the soil is still undercut in the whole area thanks to the overlapping shares that are 170 mm wide. Another benefit is the reduced demand on the towing vehicle power.

Gamma section

This section is suitable for early spring operations, such as before of seeding barley. The four rows of gamma points at a negative angle aerate and warm up soil without bringing wet particles to the surface, which preserves winter moisture. It is important for a fast start of the growth of spring crop. The spring-loading of each tine enables working at high speed. The gamma points for this section are also available in the LONG LIFE version.

HIGH DAILY OUTPUTS OF UP TO 230 HA/DAY

Get the most out of your tractor.

The SWIFTER SM wide working width cultivator is designed for hitching with the most powerful tractors on the market, such as quadtrac tractors. In combination with a working width of up to 18 metres, the high engine power, and the working speed, it is possible to achieve high daily outputs of up to 230 ha. Therefore, there is no need to deal with two-shift operation.

SIMPLE DESIGN

Does not require many points of lubrication.

SWIFTER SM cultivators only have two side frame sections, unlike other competitive products in this category. The structural design of the machine reduces the number of hydraulic cylinders where side frame pressure could be lost. This design also reduces the number of points of lubrication, the overall wear of the machine, and it simplifies manipulation with the machine, both in the field and on the road.

PROVEN DESIGN

Do not lose time, work at headland without having to lift the machine.

The design of the SWIFTER SM cultivator enables turning the machine at the headland without having to lift the working sections. Even so, we recommend turning on the headland with slightly excavated working sections and a larger turning radius. The fixed connecting rods of the BAR-LOCK system stabilise the side frames not only when turning, but also at higher working speed.

BAR-LOCK SYSTEM

Quick two-minute machine folding and unfolding.

BAR-LOCK is a lock bar system. The system ensures a continuous, easy and safe unfolding of the machine from the transport to the working position, as well as machine reversing. Also, it secures the connecting rods of the side frames with the drawbar when in the working position. The entire operation is done from the comfort of the tractor cabin.
