Segmented distributor head with electric half-side shut-off

The segmented distributor head is arranged behind the seed hopper directly above the coulters. This arrangement ensures a short conveying time for the seed.

The optional electric half-side shut-off helps to reduce any over-sowing on the headland or round the field border and thus saves seed. Via the half-side shut-off, the drill metering can be comfortably controlled via the terminal in wedge shaped fields or on a diagonal headland. Additionally, via GPS, the automated switching of half the working width is possible.

Either when using the electric half-side shut-off or during a tramline bout, the seed rate is reduced automatically.

The benefits:

• Electric half-side shut-off
• Short conveying times for the seed
• Reduction in overlap saves seed
• Minimising dust creation inside the seed hopper because no seed is rerouted
