Monopill – Sowing Heart
•
The seed disc is rotating through the second patented seed chamber
•
The disc picks only one seed at a time, additional seeds are wiped off
•
Due to the centrifugal force, the seed remains in the seed cell throughout its rotation
•
With the seeding heart positioned deep inside the seeding coulter, the seed drop height is only 3cm
3cm
Monopill – Sowing Heart
•
The seed disc rotates counter clockwise
(U), in opposite to the driving direction (F)
•
With a seed distance down the row of
20cm, the circumference speed of the disc
= drive forward speed => Zero deposit
•
Standard seed spacing of 18 - 24cm with seed disc A4
•
Up & down movements of the parallelogram have no effect on the seed disc/spacing due to a specially designed chain guide
20 cm

Monopill – Press Wheels
Row setting = Coulter
– intermediate press wheel – coverer – conical press wheel
1. V-shaped coulter opens the furrow
2. The intermediate press wheel firms seed into the furrow
3. The coverers put some more earth on the furrow
4. The conical press wheel consolidate the earth at the side more than in the middle
=> The amount of covering soil (B) is similar to that of the sowing depth (A)
Ideal for wet and loamy soils
Monopill – Press Wheels
Row setting = Coulter
– coverer – finger press wheel
1. V-shaped coulter opens the furrow
2. The coverers put some more earth on the furrow
3. The finger press wheel consolidate the earth in the middle more than at the sides
=> The covering soil (B) is lower than the sowing depth (A).
A "Micro climate" then protects the germinated plant
Monopill S/ e-drive II – Electronics
Introduction: tramlines in Sugar Beet
Reasons for setting up tramlines:
•
Opportunity to save sugar beet seeds (cost of 100.000 sugar beet seeds: 150
€)
• Ease follow-up operations e.g. fertilising and spraying with less crop damage
• Opportunity to drive over the sugar beet field without special cultivation tyres
=> reduce handling costs
• Reduction of losses at the edge of rows => uniform root size
• Possibility to reduce soil compaction and damage of the earth structure => use of floatation tyres possible
• Reduce the danger of erosion in the tractor wheel tracks
Visus – The Opto - Electronic Control
• Monitoring of seeds/ha
•
Control of up to 12 sowing units
•
Electric hectare meter
• Summary of worked total area
• Opto transmitter with plug connection
• Automatic tramlining system up to 4 clutches (set of 2 or set of 4 clutches)
• Service function

• Seed spacing adjustment during work
• The amount of seed at edge rows can be reduced or increased stepwise
• Opto-electronic sensors counting the seeds and advising of unit problems (e.g. empty hopper)
• Row by row shut-off Ready for GEOcontroll® IsoMatch
• On board diagnostic system to help locate failures
Tellus
• Ready for GEOseed ®
Monopill e-drive II – IsoMatch Tellus
The next generation universal ISOBUS
Terminal
–
IsoMatch Tellus
• Two ISOBUS interfaces in one terminal
• Multifunctional ergonomic design
• ISOBUS Shortcut Button
The IsoMatch Tellus is the first ISOBUS with the capability to operate different machines on 2 screens through 1 terminal, without the need to constantly toggle between screens.
GEOcontroll ® - the automatically row switch-off, steered by GPS
•
Steered by GPS one row after another is switched off at the heads land
•
Saving seeds
•
No place in field with doubles or triples
• No missings no free spots for weeds in the field
• Easy handling for driver
• Full concentration of driver on field conditions and turning process
27
GEOseed ® - the intelligent way of precise placing of seeds
Seeding in parallel and diamond pattern
•
The patented two-dimension placement control allows seeding in parallel or diamond patterns
•
By adding a precise GPS signal (RTK) in combination the sowing heart extension synchronisation beyond machine width is ensured by GPS co-ordinates.
•
Positive effects of GEOseed
® can be reached with close row sowing (37,5 – 45 cm) and seed distances wider than 18-20 cm
•
Further information about the possibilities and necessary needs for GEOseed you find in GEOseed presenation!
