Description
VSS AGRO FURROW PRESS
VSS AGRO FURROW PRESS SPECIALLY FOR SOFTER SOIL TYPES
The VSS Agro Furrow Press is specially designed as a replacement for the regular front packer. This is because a regular front packer has the major disadvantage that the machine must be connected and disconnected each time at the headlands. With the VSS Agro Furrow Press, this is a thing of the past! The machine is designed for softer soil types and, applied to the plough, creates an optimal seedbed in one pass.
TEMPORARILY INHIBITS CAPILLARY ACTION
After ploughing, moisture escapes from the soil as water rises with it. To prevent this phenomenon, called capillary action, use a our furrow press to your plough. This temporarily inhibits capillary action. This creates additional moisture under the pressed layer. Precisely the place after which sowing the seeds should germinate. Thus, the use of the VSS Agro Furrow Press promotes even emergence after seeding.
CONSTRUCTION OF THE FURROW PRESS
The furrow press consists of two or three hydraulic lifting arms, a drawbar and a box beam to which swiveling dense hollow discs (Ø560mm) are mounted. You can vary the number of discs on the bar as you wish. The discs are ball-bearing and manufactured from wear-resistant stainless steel. You attach the machine to the plough with included attachments that specifically fit the plough bodies. These are different for each brand/type of plough. All attachments and hydraulic hoses come standard with the furrow press.
OPERATION OF THE FURROW PRESS
The swing arms on the furrow press are designed to automatically guide the discs so that they always follow the direction of travel of the plough. Even with a plough with variable width adjustment. You control the pressure by adjusting the stop on the arms. The machine operates on its own weight. With the hydraulic pressure control option on the rolling arms, you can set the pressure yourself. Do you own a stone secured plough? On request, it is possible to apply the VSS Agro Furrow Press to this type of plough. Thereby, you have the choice of spring-loaded or hydraulic protection. For more information, please contact us or the VSS Agro dealer in your area.
