Mounted pneumatic precision planter with telescopic closure frame and adjustable row spacing adjustable
MONICA precision planter introduces within MTR range the category of telescopic frames with adjustable spacing. Thanks to over ten years’ experience in the precision planter sector and the versatility of MTR unit capable of planting in conditions of both fine and minimally tilled soils, MONICA model offers 6-row and 7-row versions with adjustable spacing, ideal for planting crops such as corn, sunflower and soy.
MTR planting unit is characterised by high-level structural solutions such as the sturdy double parallelogram connection system with adjustable load spring, double disc coulter, independent rocker depth wheels, distributor body made in cast aluminium and large 36 l capacity hopper.
MTR planting unit is coupled to the telescopic frame with a hydraulically operated extension, which ensures a road width of only 2.5 m. The rapid adjustment of the inter-row distance is carried out with locking pins for each planting unit, while the positioning of the individual elements according to the desired distance takes place hydraulically. The standard transmission is mechanical with a 16-speed gearbox which, together with the electromechanical release system of the single element (optional), also allows section control.
In case of greater technological requirements, the ISOTRONIC version with electric transmission and ISOBUS communication system, allows digital control of the planter and the use of all Precision Farming functions, thanks to the choice of different Universal Terminals.
The different customizations offered by MONICA model allow different combinations between microgranulators and fertilizer spreaders. The latter, available only with suffolk coulter, offers two different applications: rear on the frame of the planter itself or as a PA1 front hopper.
Customization can be further enriched in the 7-row version thanks to a central unit exclusion kit that allows for the 6-row configuration. This system allows to work both on 7 rows with inter-row distances (45, 50 cm) and on 6 rows with inter-row distances up to 75 cm.
MONICA is a multipurpose model, capable of varying the inter-row spacing but remaining extremely compact for road transport. These are the characteristics that have made it a point of reference for farmers and contractors.
