After introducing the 6m foldable ESPRO 6000 RC seed drill at SIMA 2017, the KUHN range gets even bigger with the arrival of new models:
- ESPRO 4000 RC (4m) foldable, with double « seed-fertiliser » or « 2-different-seed » distribution.
And an 8m working width, foldable model; the ESPRO 8000 R.
The ESPRO 8000 R seed drill has a 5,500 litre special-seed hopper. This seed drill, with 2 distribution systems and 2 distributor heads, is designed for large arable farms and contractors.
The other distinctive features specific to ESPRO seed drills since their launch in 2015 have of course been retained on this new model:
-
Large diameter wheels (900 mm), with exclusive profile, offset and featuring tyres with a specific deep tread pattern for ideal seedbed tilling as well as low power requirement.
-
CROSSFLEX coulter bar which ensures even emergence and quality seeding with the hold of the elastomer mounts fitted onto the cross-shaped sectional tube, for improved ground following.
-
Very simple adjustments, automated headland turn management, user-friendly terminals (VT or CCI) and ISOBUS compatibility make it a tool unanimously valued for comfort of use.
-
Versatility and rapidity make it capable of establishing a large variety of seeds at high speeds. It can be used with any crop establishment method and can be fitted with front press wheels with in-cab pressure adjustment for sowing on ploughed land or in light soils.
