The Czech manufacturer of agricultural machinery BEDNAR has announced the release of updated models of Swifterdisc XE disc cutters.
Writes about this Traktorist.ua.
According to the announcement, the Swifterdisc XE 2022 discator models will have a new reversal pattern. Compared to previous models, now only the disc section is lifted during the turn, and the transport and support wheels, as well as rollers, remain in a working position.
“This design eliminates the negative load on the hitch and relieves the tractor when the machine is turning. Moreover, it prevents unwanted vibrations and makes the entire turning process faster and more comfortable, ”the message says.
It is noted that the Swifterdisc XE is equipped with double support wheels in front of the working disc section. Front double support wheels help stabilize the disc coulters at high speeds. The rear rollers are equipped with a parallelogram.
“This design ensures that when the discator is fitted with this type of roller, both rows of the roller are always pressed evenly against the ground. The big advantage is that you don't have to spend a lot of time adjusting the rear rollers for specific field conditions, ”the report says.
The Swifterdisc XE 2022 discs are available in two working widths: 10 and 12.4 m. Bednar says the 12.4 m wide unit is ideal for Controlled Traffic Farming (CTF) due to its working width. An additional 20 cm on each side will provide sufficient overlap for each aisle.
