ZS 200 M4
Due to its structure and functions, the ZS 200 M4 is the ultimate slug pellet spreader. Due to the two spreading discs operated independently of each other, an absolutely symmetric spreading pattern is achieved also in the case of larger working widths. The ZS 200 M4 represents a cost-efficient and precise alternative for the output of catch crops, reseeding grass, the spreading of slug pellets (up to 31 m), nurse crops and the seeding on fallow land. Additionally, the seeding can be executed simultaneously to the soil tillage.
Functional Principle
The plastic hopper ensures the low weight of the entire spreader. It contains the spreading material, which securely reaches the metering shutter through an agitator. You can control the spread rate with the stepless metering shutter. The spreading material falls on the spreading disc and is distributed equally across the working width. The speed of the spreading disc and thus the working width are easy to set from the driver’s seat via the control box.

Lateral distribution curve
When developing the ZS 200 M4, we mainly focused on two aspects:
- Optimisation for the output of slug pellets: In order to further improve the performance of Disc Spreaders, particularly in connection with slug pellets, the throwing vane configuration and design were optimised in collaboration with the French institute IRSTEA. The results are great - best lateral distribution values even with maximum working widths. Our optimised device achieves a working width of up to 31 m with a variation coefficient that is smaller than 12 %.
- Independent control of the spreading discs: The advantages of independent control of both spreading discs is best demonstrated in practice at the field edge. With ZS 200 M4 you can reduce the throwing distance of a spreading disc.
An example: You can adjust the spreading discs so that the one oriented towards the field centre continues to operate at full speed and the one oriented towards the neighbouring field continues only at half speed. This diminishes the throwing width of the spreading disc with the reduced speed by about half. Consequently, you do not spread on your neighbour’s field and observe legal framework requirements. The control works via the control box in the driver’s cab.
