The right nozzle choice – The basis for success in plant protection

Less drift also at higher wind speeds

Injector nozzles (ID, TTI) have a relatively coarse droplet spectrum and are particularly versatile with regard to their field of application. A pressure range of 2 to 8 bar is possible. They are universally usable in all crops and all classifications. Because of the coarse droplet application, these nozzles can also be used in higher wind speeds.

If coverage quality is at the foreground of the application, the use of standard or anti-drift fine droplet nozzles, such as XR or AD, is recommended. Special care is required here due to their tendency to drift above 3 bar.

A good compromise is provided by the modern ID-K or Airmix compact injector nozzles: These have relatively little drift, but do not have too coarse a droplet spectrum and are operated at 2 to 4 bar.

When it comes to special coverage qualities, the double flat fan nozzle is an interesting alternative: the AVI Twin from Agrotop also produces droplets that are not too fine. The split spray pattern ensures a more even deposit on the front and back of the plant and makes sense maybe, for example, in ear treatment.

For speeds greater than 10 km/h, the TD HiSpeed nozzle with its asymmetrical spraying angle is becoming a new industry trend.

Electric boundary nozzle switching – For environmentally-friendly spray application at the field edge

Additional nozzle switching
In order to extend the normal working width, an asymmetrical nozzle can also be switched on. This is particularly useful if the distances between tramlines are not precise enough.



 

Additional nozzle switching







Boundary nozzle switching
For precision border spraying between two sensitive crops, the boundary nozzles can be used to make sure the spray pattern is accurately defined.
 

Boundary nozzle switching







End nozzle switching
If a one metre buffer zone around the edge of the field needs to remain unsprayed due to distance constraints, end nozzle switching can be used.

Liquid fertilisation

AMAZONE sprayers are particularly suitable for using liquid fertiliser: the use of high-quality plastics, the good paint finish and the use of stainless steel ensure a long service life, even when liquid fertiliser is used.

Under-leaf spraying

Elegant solutions for successful under-leaf spraying are also possible in combination with AMAZONE crop protection sprayers. For example, the Dropleg system is a light and robust under-leaf spraying system which hangs freely between the rows.

Multi-hole nozzles

For the distribution of liquid fertiliser in coarse droplet size, either multi-hole nozzles (3 or 7 hole) or the FD sluice nozzles are available on request.

Drag hose equipment

The drag hose equipment for the Super-L boom consists of a drag hose set and can be used in conjunction with an AmaSwitch quad nozzle body or AmaSelect system plus an off-set kit for 25 cm nozzle spacing.

Drag hoses offer a risk-free late top dressing with liquid fertiliser and stainless steel weights help keep the position of the drag hoses within the crop.
