Key properties

A combination cultivator for cutting crop residue and intense loosening up to a depth of 14″ in one pass.

TWO OPERATIONS, ONE PASS

ACTROS RO GEN II cultivator for incorporation of large quantities of residues.

The efficient combination of a blade and shank gangs provides two operations in one pass. The high implement underframe clearance, and the spacing of the individual blades and shanks are modified for incorporation of large quantities of organic matter in the form of cover crop, crop residue, or manure.

HYDRAULIC DRAWBAR

Perfect terrain contouring – consistant in any conditions.

The ACTROS RO is equipped with a hydraulic drawbar. This design is used as it provides an excellent attachment and operation for the tractor, and above all, improves the quality of work because the combination cultivator follows the terrain contours perfectly.

A LARGE BLADE DIAMETER OF 27" × 0.24"

Excellent cutting and incorporation of trash.

The ACTROS RO combination cultivator is especially designed for processing large quantities of crop residue, for example, after grain corn. The ACTROS RO cultivator is equipped with two ranks of large notched blades with a diameter of 27″ x 0.24″ which provide excellent cutting and incorporation of crop residue up to a depth of 6.5″. The spacing of the individual blades in the rank is 16.7″, ensuring trouble-free work with high throughput.

HEAVY CAST IRON DISC ARMS

Greater weight on the front disc gang sections.

ACTROS RO GEN II has each disc on one arm. The disc arms are made of cast iron. This allows for a greater weight per disc, which penetrates the soil better and cuts trash.

MAINTENANCE-FREE DISC BEARINGS

Quality first.

Bearings specially developed for agricultural use, designed for longer service life, containing a double row angular contact ball bearing sealed with two static and one dynamic cartridge seal with four sealing ribs and running in a solid metal housing. The bearings are attached to the disc with 6 bolts.

ROBUST CAST IRON SHANK BRACKETS

Mounted to the implement main frame.

Each shank is mounted (not welded) to the main frame of the ACTROS RO GEN II by means of a solid bracket. The advantage of this design lies in the high durability of the brackets and the frame. In case of any damage, each bracket can be easily replaced. Each shank is firmly located and its geometry works within accurately defined limits without oscillations and lift.

TWO RANKS OF ACTIVE-MIX SHANKS

For intense loosening up to 14".

For the intense loosening effect, the ACTROS RO GEN II combination cultivator is equipped with two rows of ACTIVE-MIX shanks. The ACTIVE-MIX shanks provide cultivation up to a depth of 14″. In one pass, the soil profile is both loosened in depth and intensely mixed.

TWO OPTIONS OF SHANK PROTECTION

Maximum adjustment of the implement to the soil conditions.

This type of protection is suitable for medium to heavy soil containing a small amount of stones. The release force is 1,102 lb.

This type of protection is the ideal solution for dry, heavy soils with a higher concentration of stones. The release force is 1,455 lb.

INTEGRATED AXLE

The smart design allows working without the rear packers.

Rear packers might get clogged when cultivating heavy soil in the late season or working in extreme conditions. The integrated axle and the placement of the second rank of shanks behind the axle makes it possible to use ACTROS RO GEN II in muddy conditions, as the rear packers can be easily disconnected or lifted. The integrated axle also enhances turning at headland, continuous approach into the next working section and transport.

VARIOUS LEVELLING SECTIONS

Perfect soil profile structure.

The ACTROS RO GEN II levelling section following the second rank of shanks can be equipped with two types of working tools. The available attachments includes levelling discs with hydraulic control. There are also simple levelling springs with mechanical control; hydraulic control is available on request. This section levels the ridges behind the shank gang and levels the surface before it is consolidated by the rear packers.

COMBINATION WITH FERTILIZER HOPPERS

Precise fertilizer batching thanks to BEDNAR pressurized tanks suitable for supplementary fertilization into the soil profile in one pass.

The FERTI-BOX FB_F front mounted tank is primarily designed to supply fertilization directly in the soil profile and has a capacity of 54 – 62 bu. Fertilizer is pneumatically distributed from the tank to the distribution tower mounted on the combination cultivator.

The FERTI-CART FC is trailed cart which has a capacity of 100 bu. The opening of the plastic hopper has a large inclination which allows it apply lower-quality fertilizers.

The COMBO SYSTEM CS is a trailed cart with two tanks which have a total capacity of 140 bu. The cart design allows the application of two types of fertilizer in one pass, or use both tanks for one fertilizer.

ACTROS RO 4000 R GEN II WITH PRESSURIZED TANK

Simple solution for soil fertilization in one pass.

The ACTROS RO 4000 R GEN II can be equipped with a 80 bu tank. The tank is placed on the main frame of the implement. Under the pressurized tank is a stainless steel metering unit that allows doses of up to 446 lb/acre depending on the working speed.

ALFA DRILL SEEDER

Simple and easy establishment of cover crop with a combination cultivator in combination with a seeder.

The ACTROS RO GEN II combination cultivator can be equipped with the BEDNAR ALFA DRILL seeder during the production process, for seeding cover crop and small-seed plants during stubble cultivation, all in one pass. The time and fuel savings are considerable.The ALFA DRILL seeder has the same metering unit as the BEDNAR seed drills. Even seed/fertiliser distribution is ensured by the distribution head. The ALFA DRILL has a volume of 11 bu.

DEEP SOIL CULTIVATION
Deep soil cultivation has its proven advantages, and it can completely replace standard tillage when carried out at the right time and in the right way. Deep cultivation enables root systems to develop, disrupts compacted layers and the plough basin, and creates optimal soil environment for proper functional water and air conditions of soil. BEDNAR machines can carry out deep loosening up to the maximum depth of 65 centimetres. It is recommended to add profile fertilisation in one pass, to provide soil with essential nutrients.
