AMAZONE Catros Disc Cultivator
The Catros range of disc cultivators are ideally suited to shallow and intensively mixing soil tillage. Thanks to their extremely low pulling power requirement, combined with high forward speeds, high work rates are possible. They are also extremely economical to operate owing to their very low fuel consumption.
Features
Support wheels
Optimum shallow chopping and mixing
Smart Frame System
GreenDrill seeder box
The short distance between the support wheels and the roller provides excellent contour following over hills and through hollows.
Very shallow tillage plays an increasingly important role when it comes to carefully managing the water balance in the soil. Shallow tillage significantly reduces the loss through evaporation of valuable soil moisture, particularly in hot and dry summers. Much less soil is moved than with other discs, which need to operate at much greater depths to move the full soil surface.
The Smart Frame System from AMAZONE is a completely new design of working depth adjustment for compact disc harrows. The complete row of discs is turned to adjust the working depth. The discs are either turned away from the frame to work deeper or up towards the frame to work shallower. In this respect, the main frame always remains parallel to the ground.
To enable the sowing of catch crops directly or together with the soil tillage operation, AMAZONE offers the GREENDRILL seeder box. With hopper capacities of 200 or 500L, the GREENDRILL seeder box is ideal for sowing fine seeds. The hopper of the GREENDRILL can easily be accessed via the loading steps. As part of the metering system, underneath the seed hopper, is the seed shaft where all seed types and seed rates can be sown using either the normal or fine seed wheels provided. The drive to the seed shaft and fan are carried out with an electric motor and hydraulically.
