For the perfect mix 

With the Ceus-TX, AMAZONE also offers a rigid machine for smaller farms with tractors from 150 hp. The Ceus 3000-TX and Ceus 4000-TX models are equipped with centre running gear. They are sure to impress with an excellent quality of work and high manoeuvrability as a result of the narrow working width and the centrally located TX running gear.

Overview of the Ceus-TX: 

• Hydraulic working depth adjustment of the disc element 
• Manual working depth adjustment of the tine element via eccentric pins 
• Depth control is provided via the roller and lower link cross shaft 
• The right roller for every soil type

Ceus 3000-TX, 3.0 m working width
Ceus 4000-TX, 4.0 m working width

Ceus 4000-2TX, 5000-2TX, 6000-2TX and 7000-2TX

The Ceus-2TX, in working widths from 4 m to 7 m, is designed for farms with large acreages and short application windows. The Ceus offers maximum performance under all conditions thanks to the combination of the disc and tine elements. Depending on the working width, the Ceus-2TX requires tractors of 200 hp or more. The folding frame also means that the Ceus-2TX can be transported comfortably and quickly on the road.

The benefits:

• Optional hydraulic working depth adjustment of the disc element
• Optional hydraulic working depth adjustment of the tine element
• Exact depth control via drawbar and rear roller and also the additional support wheels at working widths from 6 m
• The right roller for every soil type

Smooth running

To ensure that the implement runs smoothly, even at the larger working widths, and operates at a constant depth, additional support wheels are integrated into the implement, from a working width of 6 m. A track loosener is also mounted behind each wheel, so that the wheel tracks are loosened again.

1. Inner support wheels

With the trailed disc and tine combination cultivator, several operational processes can be combined in one pass. For example, the front disc element with serrated 510 mm discs enables shallow cultivation at working depths of 5 to 14 cm.

The following C-Mix tine element can then be used for the subsequent loosening down to a depth of 35 cm. At the same time, the downforce of the tine element which occurs during work increases the penetration effect of the front discs.

The Ceus is the universal machine for soil tillage. The principle of the Ceus is different from that of an ordinary cultivator. When the two implements are compared, the Ceus shows its strengths first and foremost with its intensive mixing. The front disc element helps with distribution and incorporation, especially in fields with a large amount of organic material.

The low pulling power requirement of the Ceus provided by the wider spacing of the tines is also sure to impress when deep loosening. The front disc element means that the Ceus gets by with a larger tine spacing without having to compromise its mixing performance.

The leading discs comprehensively incorporate the organic matter by intensively shredding and mixing the crop residues on the surface of the soil. At the same time, a finely crumbled structure occurs within that top soil layer. This creates optimum conditions for rotting on the one hand and excellent germination and emergence conditions on the other. The working depth is adjusted via a parallelogram. This changes the working depth of the front and rear row of discs to the same extent.

• The following tine element enables deep soil layers to be loosened down to a working depth of up to 35 cm.
• The flexible working depth adjustment also allows for shallow working depths of 5 cm for the tines.
• With the 430 mm wide wing shares on the tines, the entire soil surface is cut.

The system in comparison with a cultivator

The Ceus is the universal machine for soil tillage. The principle of the Ceus is different from that of an ordinary cultivator. When the two implements are compared, the Ceus demonstrates its strength first and foremost with its intensive mixing. The front disc element helps with distribution and incorporation, especially in fields with a large amount of organic material. The low pulling power requirement of the Ceus provided by the wider spacing of the tines is also sure to impress when deep loosening. The front disc element means that the Ceus gets by with a larger tine spacing without having to compromise its mixing performance.

• The combination of the disc and tine element provides extremely reliable and economical soil tillage in short windows of use  
• Complete movement of the soil horizon thanks to the combination of the disc and tine elements

The working depth of the front disc element in the Ceus-TX and Ceus-2TX is easily adjusted hydraulically. The tine element and the levelling unit in the Ceus-2TX can also be equipped with hydraulic working depth adjustment. Hydraulic adjustment of the tine element is also possible when operating without a roller. The tine element and the levelling unit can be mechanically adjusted via spindles as an alternative. Only mechanical working depth adjustment of the tine element is available for the rigid Ceus-TX.

The Ceus-2TX can be also operated without rollers in very wet conditions. In this case, it is no longer guided at the rear via the rollers but via the running gear. Each wheel track is immediately loosened again by means of the tines following behind the wheels of the running gear.

Spacers on the piston rod of the running gear lift cylinder can be easily swivelled in to hold the running gear at the desired working depth.

To ensure that the machine runs smoothly, even at the larger working widths, and operates at a constant depth, additional pressurised support wheels are integrated into the machine from a working width of 6 m. A tine is also mounted behind each wheel, so that the wheel tracks are always loosened.
