Pottinger has announced its latest range of trailed Terrasam seed drills in the form of the Terrasem V 8000 D and Terrasem V 9000 D, which are high end models. They are said to work in widths of 8m and 9m and are custom-equipped to handle site-specific conditions. According to Pottinger, the disc harrow is fitted as standard as the leading tillage tool, and makes the machine ideal for mulch drilling. Despite being able to work with large working widths, the drills are capable of high operating speeds while retaining excellent positioning accuracy.
In terms of soil strips, the models are available with wave discs as an option for loosening, while the classic version is supplied without tillage tools and is said to be able to be handled smoothly when running prepared seedbeds. Having reconfigured the mounting of all the tillage tools, Pottinger ensures that the machine works efficiently and in a straight line. An additional advantage is that regular greasing is not necessary as the tillage tools have revolving parts secured with sealed bearings. Seeding rates of 1.5kg to 420kg at 12km/h are possible. The seed flow rate can be adjusted on these machines without leaving the tractor seat.
