Stubble cultivation after harvest
Stubble cultivation is one of the most important operations. According to proper agrotechnical procedures, it should be performed as soon as possible after harvest. For this operation, the SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI can be equipped with notched discs or aggressive discs with a diameter of 520 × 5 or 560 × 5 mm, which ensure excellent cutting, soil mixing, and incorporation of crop residue. The rear packers then consolidate and close the processed soil profile for even weed and volunteer emergence.
Seedbed preparation
The small diameter of the discs combined with high working speeds allows high circumferential speed to be achieved, ensuring excellent crumbling and mixing effects of the disc section. Especially for more frequent use in soil preparation, we recommend equipping the SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI compact disc harrow with a front Crushbar, which is used to level unevenness and break up rough furrows.
X-PRECISE SYSTEM
Perfect tracking keeps the compact disc harrow in the right line
SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI machines have disc sections arranged in an “X” pattern. This innovative technical solution eliminates sideways movement of the machine, known as drifting. As a result, the compact disc harrow precisely follows the tractor’s line. The center disc eliminates the risk of ridges forming.
INTEGRATED AXLE AND PACKER LAYOUT
Extremely stable even at high working speed.
The arrangement of the rear packers in two rows provides greater stability at high speeds than a single row and also eliminates the gap that occurs with compact disc harrows that use two rollers in one row. The integrated axle ensures even weight distribution and eliminates rocking of the machine. It also makes transport safer and reduces the turning radius of the tractor with the harrow at headlands.
LARGE SPACING BETWEEN SECTIONS
It enables working faster and eliminates the risk of clogging.
When stubble cultivation or incorporating large amounts of crop residues, the machine can often become clogged due to low throughput, or the working speed may be limited to prevent the formation of waves. SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI compact disc harrows provide 140 cm between the front and rear disc rows and up to 160 cm between the discs and the rear packer axle. The 60-centimeter frame throughput allows for the incorporation of even large amounts of organic matter or manure.
DISCS AS TRACTOR TRACK ERADICATORS
PROFI design in every detail.
SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI can be equipped with a system of brackets that form track eradicators behind the tractor wheels for perfect loosening of compacted soil layers. Using spacers, it is possible to increase the working depth of 4 to 8 discs compared to the others in the front row by 2-4 cm.
HYDRAULIC DRAWBAR
Perfect terrain contouring – always and anywhere.
The SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI compact disc harrow is equipped with a hydraulic drawbar. We use this technical solution because it facilitates connection to the towing vehicle and, above all, improves the quality of work, as the disc harrow perfectly follows the unevenness of the terrain.
TRASH CUTTER
A cutting roller for tough crop residues.
The SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI compact disc harrow can be equipped with a Trash Cutter cutting roller in front, which is ideal for cutting plant residues and tough stalks. The chopped crop residues decompose better in the soil and facilitates subsequent tillage, during which the machine does not clog.
ALFA DRILL SEEDER
Establishing catch crops in one pass.
The SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI compact disc harrow can be equipped with the BEDNAR ALFA DRILL seeder for sowing catch crops and small-seeded plants during stubble cultivation in a single pass. The savings in time and fuel are significant in this case. The hopper capacity is 400 litres.
