Kverneland Flatliner - Ideal for loosening pans and tramlines

Subsoiling for good soil structure, root growth and increase yield stability!

Soil loosening is an essential operation for long-term soil management and maintenance. A good soil structure increases yields by up to 30% depending on soil type and crop. Soil compaction is created by heavy harvesting equipment, trailers, traffic tramlines, heavy disc harrows and ploughs especially when all these tools are used in damp conditions. In addition conservation tillage is requesting the respect of different soil layers in a protective farming system. The best answer to cope with all these needs is the use of subsoilers like the Kverneland Flatliner.

Pro-lift tines with an ideal arrangement in V-shape

The V-shaped arrangement of the Pro-lift tines ensures that compaction down to 50cm depth is loosened, power requirement reduced and soil penetration improved. The frame is equipped with bolted clamps for tine fixing. Then the tine spacing can be adjusted if necessary. The curved shape of the Pro-lift tines and the high quality chrome-boron steel reduce the wear, limit the power requirement and prevent the rising of clods and stones to the surface. There are 3 wing shapes depending on the target of the subsoiling job and soil conditions.

The tine is composed of 5 wearing parts, which significantly extend the lifetime of the tines and avoid waste of parts partly worn out. The tines are secured against overload by shear bolt protection.

The high under-beam clearance combined with the Pro-lift tines and the sturdy V-frame enables good soil flow even with higher amounts of residues.

New roller DD for wet but also dry conditions

The DD roller with a diameter of 600mm ensures optimum re-consolidation, levelling and depth control. The result is weather-proof soil conditions. The risk of wind and water erosion as well as flooding is reduced. The large contact surface reduces the pressure on the surface and at the same time it determines the pressure effect on the depth. This in turn moves the capillary water to the top and at the same time rainwater is infiltrated. Special scrapers ensure perfect self-cleaning of the rings.
