Rigid frame row-crop cultivator
Traditionally specialists in precision sowing, GASPARDO is also recognized for the reliability and operational capacity of its row crop cultivators, carefully designed for inter-row tilling of the main extensive, cereal and horticultural crops. The HL model represents the starting model, characterised by the fixed frame of the mounted type and available in the "Beet" versions up to 12 rows and "Corn" up to 8.
GASPARDO row crop cultivator element is characterised by high-level structural solutions such as the robust double parallelogram connection system with high ground clearance, quick release and solidly fixed elements. These have a staggered arrangement of the “Superflow” springs which allows both an easy flow of soil without any risk of clogging and mounting different types of working parts and side protections according to the different operating requirements. On request, the load spring of the parallelogram system is also available if you have to operate on tough soils where greater pressure is required to penetrate the ground.
GASPARDO row crop cultivator element is coupled to the sturdy fixed frame, characterised by a single- or double-beam (DT) structure in the case of the 12-row "Beet" and 8-row "Corn" versions. The double frame is equipped with 400 mm load-bearing wheels as standard, which is the best solution especially for row crop cultivators with large working widths. For the basic versions not equipped with fertilizer spreader, the front coupling to the tractor is available on request.
To meet the most diverse needs, it is possible to equip the HL with features that allow to make the most of its performance. The AUTOMATIC DRIVING system (for HL from 6 to more rows and without fertilizer spreader) allows the tractor driver to intervene in the sown crops in a non-linear manner, automatically directing the machine that perfectly follows the trajectory of the tractor (even when cornering), without causing damage to the crop.
Operational efficiency in the field can be improved thanks to the versions equipped with fertilizer spreaders that allow to concentrate three operations in a single pass: eliminating weeds, distributing and burying the fertilizer. The transmission can be mechanical as standard with a toothed traction wheel for greater grip, or with an electric motor on request.
HL is the row crop cultivator for medium-small farms where there are no internal traffic problems.
