OPERA 600

The machine is equipped with three independently adjustable working sections that combine six operations in a single pass. All working parts, from the discs for tilling the soil to the seed and fertiliser coulters, are equipped with independent arm connection elements with respective supports cushioned by 4 rubber silent blocks. This solution guarantees the greatest possible degree of movement of the working parts in order to operate efficiently even on uneven or unworked soil. The sturdy, semi-mounted chassis (optionally carried by means of an eye), with folding side members and crossbars, makes it possible to reduce the overall dimensions from 6 to only 3 metres for road transport, and thanks to the long drawbar, both road transfers and headland turns are made easy.

The new pressurised hopper features a high capacity of 5,100 l and has the possibility of varying the internal partition (60/40 or 50/50). This modulation allows for the best possible operation by combining different varieties, crops or fertilisers. Pressurisation is a technology already adopted in other MASCHIO GASPARDO seed drills, which improves the efficiency of product distribution along the entire working face and reduces the effort required by the hydraulically driven impeller, even in hilly areas. A solution that reduces the power required and consequently consumption and emissions. 

The newly developed X-FORCE seeding bar ensures a constant seeding depth even when working at high speeds and is capable of applying a ground pressure of up to 140 kg. The system consists of a double disc coulter with the same diameter as the fertiliser coulter (380 mm) and, thanks to its special V-shaped design, always ensures a uniform seeding depth even on heavy soils. The double-disc furrow opener has a mud scraper inside the V, which, together with the rear depth wheel made of soft self-cleaning rubber, makes it possible to work effectively even on wet soils, avoiding mud accumulations that could compromise correct deposition.

ISOTRONIC's electric drive with ISOBUS communication protocol allows digital control of the seed drill and all Precision Farming functions, simplifying calibration procedures for seed and fertiliser. Sensors and actuators help improve the operator's experience, allowing them to work more efficiently, saving time, effort and money.
