Centaya Special harrow-mounted seed drill

High precision, efficiency and flexibility are very important factors for successful and economical crop establishment with good yields. Similarly, the short time periods with ideal conditions available must be utilised to the full.

The Centaya harrow-mounted seed drill offers great advantages for achieving these objectives. Tilling the soil with a rotary harrow, rotary cultivator or mounted compact disc harrow enables perfect seedbed preparation in a single pass immediately before sowing.

AMAZONE's high-performance coulter technology sows with maximum precision at exactly the right depth. Divided hoppers, or other application systems, such as the GreenDrill rear-mounted seeder box or Micro plus micro-granular applicator, allow the simultaneous application of fertiliser into the seed furrow – ensuring the successful establishment of innovative arable farming concepts.

The large hopper reduces downtimes, while the high-capacity metering system can be easily adjusted to the conditions in each location.

This is how the Centaya from AMAZONE masters sowing.

Flexible crop establishment for economical working

1. Convenient SmartCenter settings centre for setting the placement depth and calibration at the touch of a button.
2. Seedbed preparation with a rotary harrow, rotary cultivator or compact disc harrow and ideal reconsolidation using a wide range of rollers.
3. Large-volume hopper with either single or dual seed chambers.
4. Flexible segmented distributor head with mechanical or electrical half-side control and short conveying distance to the coulters. A second optional segmented distributor head can be installed for a second material.
5. Universal RoTeC single disc coulter or high-output TwinTeC double disc coulter with smooth running characteristics for precision sowing and maintenance-free operation.

Sowing made easy with the Centaya. Fill the large hopper with seed, close the cover and drive off.

The TwinTerminal 3.0 or AmaTron 4 ISOBUS operating terminal ensure extremely reliable calibration. Once set, the metering units deliver exactly the required amount of applied material, such as seed or fertiliser.

Immediately before the seed is placed, the KE rotary harrow, a KX/KG rotary cultivator or the CombiDisc compact disc harrow work the soil, and the packer roller reconsolidates it thus preparing the perfect seedbed. 

The seed from the hopper is distributed evenly to the individual coulters via the conveying section and the distributor head, where it is sown at exactly the right depth.

The following harrow closes the seed furrow with fine soil to create the ideal conditions for germination and plant emergence.
