Flexible tyre packer
The high volume combined tyre packer is positioned between the disc harrow and the seed coulters. The machine turns on the packer at the headland and runs on 4 packer wheels when driving on the road. Thanks to the suspension of the coulter rail with the four-linkages connecting it to the packer, a constant coulter pressure is achieved over the entire working width.
On the folding three-section seed drills with a working width of 6 metres upwards, the packer follows the contours of the soil, ensuring precise ground tracking in every position, lengthways and crossways.
The tyre packer is the central guide unit on all models
Hydraulic preloading of the frame sections on folding TERRASEM V machines
Freedom of movement of the frame sections upwards and 4° and downwards
The offset position of the tyre packer wheels guarantees smooth running smoothness both in the field and during road transport
In practice, TERRASEM mulch seed drills stand for best soil conservation and highest manoeuvrability in the field.
Perfect consolidation before sowing with wide 17 inch tyres and 3 or 4 seed slots per tyre
The machine is supported by all wheels at headlands - the chassis remains in the same position with the disc harrow and coulter rail raised
Each packer wheel is individually mounted - this prevents smearing of the soil surface at the headland
Tandem effect due to offset position of the tyres
Minimises bulldozer effect with packer wheel diameter of 900 mm
Due to the 15 cm offset of each of the packer wheels, the machines run particularly smoothly. Unevenness both on the road and in the field is compensated by the tandem effect so the machines do not tend to jolt.
Air brakes or hydraulic brakes are available as an option for the weight-bearing pairs of road wheels, allowing maximum driving speeds of up to 40 kph.
