Why choose METRO MEGA
MEGA is the ideal seed drill for large farms where there are no road traffic problems.
METRO MEGA model is part of the segment of large size in-line mechanical transmission seed drills. Based on the structure of SC MARIA model, it guarantees high reliability and sturdiness allowing sowing even on minimally or coarsely tilled soils. Equipped with a foldable trailed tool frame, it is available only in the 12-meter, 88-row version.
METRO MEGA seed drill is based on the union of 4 SC MARIA seed drill models that work in parallel with each other. This union is made possible by the trailed-type tool holder frame with folding wings which allows a closed footprint of just 6 meters, facilitating transport. This imposing seed drill maintains the peculiar characteristics of the model from which it derives such as the mechanical transmission system with three-cam transmission in oil bath, the internal partition of the hopper for the distribution of the seed and fertilizer with a combined system and the system of double disc coulters with adjustable compression spring.
The planting units are characterised by an easy adjustment of the sowing depths of the 2 rows of double disc coulters, a solution that allows correct spacing to avoid soil clogging even in the presence of a lot of crop residue.
The three-cam transmission in oil bath, situated on the side of the machine, transfers movement from the drive wheel to the distribution line. The seeding population can be varied from the transmission by acting on the adjustment lever calibrated on a continuous scale from 1 to 55.
The nozzle closing blades have three positions to adjust the quantity of seed coming out of the hopper.
SC version allows to spread seed and fertilizer at the same time. The distributors, independent of each other, direct their respective products within the same delivery tube and therefore within the same furrow.
The double disc is suitable for minimally tilled soils even with plenty of crop residue. Very penetrating on tough soils, it can be equipped with a special double rubber wheel to facilitate seed coverage and germination.
MEGA is the ideal seed drill for large farms where there are no road traffic problems.
