The Tined Weeder Pro VS 1200 M1 adjusts with its unique tine spring system to the soil and protects the culture plant at the highest level. The Tined Weeder Pro with 8 mm tines in a 35 mm spacing applies the same tine pressure on the ground even at different tine levels. This enables harrowing of crops planted on ridges, such as potatoes. The tine pressure stays the same on the ridge crowns, ridge flanks and in the furrow.
With the tine spring system, the tines can be lifted so that harrowing is possible even in sensitive crops or in sensitive crop stages. This enlarges the time slot, because the tine pressure can be reduced to the tine’s net weight and thus no breaks for harrowing are required in sensitive plant stages. The hydraulic tine pressure adjustment is available as standard on the APV Tined Weeder Pro and ensures stepless adjustment of the pressure.
The tines penetrate the soil while harrowing to a maximum depth of 2-3 cm in order to break up and crumble the top soil crust. This ensures a better soil aeration and the capillarity is interrupted. The main focus of harrowing is on the reduction of weeds. While the tines move over the soil, bad herbs in the shoot or germination stage will be covered with soil or pulled out and discarded on top of the soil. There, they wither and die off. This means that approximately 90 % of the weed germs in the stock are decimated.
We are looking forward to configure your own special implement.
Superstructures with Pneumatic Seeders PS, 6 mm or 8 mm tines (instead of 7 mm) - a lot is possible!
Please contact your APV consultant.
To reduce tine wear, the VS can be equipped with tines with soldered carbide.
Endurance tests show that this tine wears more slowly. As a result, the period
of use is considerably extended until the necessary tine change. The soldered
carbide tip has a length of 60 mm.
Warning signs with lighting are available as accessories. The brackets for the warning signs are mounted with U-bolts on the main frame of the VS.
Use this bracket to fix the Pneumatic Seeder PS 120 - 500 on the VS. The bracket is mounted on the center frame with U-bolts.
The VS can be equipped with feeler wheels in the rear. Instead of the support legs, a cross beam and additional struts are mounted on the flange plates in the rear of the center frame. The brackets for the feeler wheels can be moved as desired on the cross beam and so the track can be adjusted. The feeler wheels in the rear are swivelable.
A suitable platform kit is available as an accessory to easily get to the Pneumatic Seeder.
If a PS is attached on the VS, you need brackets for the dispersion plates. Each dispersion plate is mounted on the harrow sections using U-bolts and blank holders.
With the manual tine excavation, you can lift single tines and adapt the Tined Weeder Pro optimally for bed-cultivation. Either the entire VS can be equipped or any number of tine extensions can be selected. To activate the tine excavation, the flat blank has to be pushed in the direction of the tine.
