Aguirre Tine Drill

A serrated cutting disc to mark the surface of the soil allowing operators to align the centre of the machine at equal and parallel distances from their previous workings.

A pair of pre-emergence markers are fitted to specially designed coulter brackets using a serrated cutting disc to leave a visible mark for operators to easily follow for subsequent operations. These are activated automatically by the RDS controller.

The Stocks Turbo Jet applicator with a capacity of 240 litres is a versatile and accurate 12 volt powered pneumatic applicator to meter and spread most small seeds. This applicator is commonly used to apply avadex or slug pellets with the measured material blown onto the seedbed surface via a separate distribution unit. Applicators can be configured to suit various working widths.

The Stocks Rotor Meter applicator has a capacity of 130 litres enabling it to accurately and safely meters micro and full size granular material and small seeds. The electronically speed controlled (ESC) applicator uses GPS to automatically maintain application rate as forward speed varies with ‘on the go’ rate adjustment. The metered material is fed into the venturi of the seed metering unit via a pressurised air supply ensuring constant delivery of material. The combination of materials is evenly mixed in the metering unit and delivered via each coulter into the seedbed.

Designed specifically for drills with a single pneumatic metering unit, this low cost electronic metering solution allows on the go rate adjustment, simple calibration and prevents seeding errors.

The drill is equipped with RDS Artemis Lite as standard but can be upgraded to RDS iSOCAN Controls. The benefit of the upgrade is being able to use up to 4 metering units or applicators, enabling dual cropping, fertiliser and Avadex applications. The iSOCAN software also monitors and controls tramlining, hopper level, fan speed alarms, variable rate controls, on the go seed rate adjustment and offers activity data (e.g., area worked and quantities applied). The iSOCAN software is ISOBUS compatible, allowing complete control via ISOBUS with the additional of an ISOBUS ready cable (see optional specification).

iSOBUS enables standardised communication between your tractor, software and drill through a single ‘plug and play’ terminal. The tractor driver is able to control multiple functions allowing better yield and precision drilling management from the comfort of the tractor cab using an iSOBUS Ready Cable.

This is only available with iSOCAN controls. By purchasing the unlock code, operators are then able to access the variable rate seeding facility on the RDS controller.

An electronically controlled actuator shuts off 50% of the distribution head cutting off seed supply to half of the machine width which allows for symmetrical tramlining.

Our Tine drills are equipped with a PTO driven fan as standard. A hydraulic motor that attaches to the PTO is available to drive the fan hydraulically to reduce fuel usage and prevent unneeded wear and tear on the tractor.

Sprung loaded Sabre Tine legs are retrofittable to our standard coulter which provides more uniform and consistent seed placement due to their rigidity. *Please note this will not allow our Tine Drills to be used as a Direct Drill (price per metre).
