Key properties

The SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI product range is a professional series of compact disc harrows, which are suitable for post-harvest tillage as well as for seedbed preparation.

VERSATILITY

Its true name. See for yourself.

Stubble cultivation after harvest
Seedbed preparation

Stubble cultivation is one of the most important operations. According to proper agrotechnical procedures, it should be performed as soon as possible after harvest. For this operation, the SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI can be equipped with notched discs or aggressive discs with a diameter of 520 × 5 or 560 × 5 mm, which ensure excellent cutting, soil mixing, and incorporation of crop residue. The rear packers then consolidate and close the processed soil profile for even weed and volunteer emergence.

The small diameter of the discs combined with high working speeds allows high circumferential speed to be achieved, ensuring excellent crumbling and mixing effects of the disc section. Especially for more frequent use in soil preparation, we recommend equipping the SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI compact disc harrow with a front Crushbar, which is used to level unevenness and break up rough furrows.

X-PRECISE SYSTEM

Perfect tracking keeps the compact disc harrow in the right line

SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI machines have disc sections arranged in an “X” pattern. This innovative technical solution eliminates sideways movement of the machine, known as drifting. As a result, the compact disc harrow precisely follows the tractor’s line. The center disc eliminates the risk of ridges forming.

INTEGRATED AXLE AND PACKER LAYOUT

Extremely stable even at high working speed.

The arrangement of the rear packers in two rows provides greater stability at high speeds than a single row and also eliminates the gap that occurs with compact disc harrows that use two rollers in one row. The integrated axle ensures even weight distribution and eliminates rocking of the machine. It also makes transport safer and reduces the turning radius of the tractor with the harrow at headlands.

LARGE SPACING BETWEEN SECTIONS

It enables working faster and eliminates the risk of clogging.

When stubble cultivation or incorporating large amounts of crop residues, the machine can often become clogged due to low throughput, or the working speed may be limited to prevent the formation of waves. SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI compact disc harrows provide 140 cm between the front and rear disc rows and up to 160 cm between the discs and the rear packer axle. The 60-centimeter frame throughput allows for the incorporation of even large amounts of organic matter or manure.

DISCS AS TRACTOR TRACK ERADICATORS

PROFI design in every detail.

SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI can be equipped with a system of brackets that form track eradicators behind the tractor wheels for perfect loosening of compacted soil layers. Using spacers, it is possible to increase the working depth of 4 to 8 discs compared to the others in the front row by 2-4 cm.

HYDRAULIC DRAWBAR

Perfect terrain contouring – always and anywhere.

The SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI compact disc harrow is equipped with a hydraulic drawbar. We use this technical solution because it facilitates connection to the towing vehicle and, above all, improves the quality of work, as the disc harrow perfectly follows the unevenness of the terrain.

TRASH CUTTER

A cutting roller for tough crop residues.

The SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI compact disc harrow can be equipped with a Trash Cutter cutting roller in front, which is ideal for cutting plant residues and tough stalks. The chopped crop residues decompose better in the soil and facilitates subsequent tillage, during which the machine does not clog.

ALFA DRILL SEEDER

Establishing catch crops in one pass.

The SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI compact disc harrow can be equipped with the BEDNAR ALFA DRILL seeder for sowing catch crops and small-seeded plants during stubble cultivation in a single pass. The savings in time and fuel are significant in this case. The hopper capacity is 400 litres.

Take a look at your future machine.

Drawbar

The hydraulic drawbar contributes to perfect terrain contouring.

Double front support wheels

Provide excellent terrain contouring and maintain the set working depth along the entire width of the machine.

Disc section

Disc section with notched or aggressive discs, with a diameter of 520 / 560 × 5 mm.

Integrated axle

Provides even distribution of the machine weight, contributes to better stability, and eliminates the risk of machine swaying at higher working speed. Another advantage lies in the reduced turning radius at headlands and high manoeuvrability, even in rugged terrain.

Rear packers

The wide range of rear packers make it possible to adjust the machine to any conditions. The packers crumble clods and consolidate soil to prevent its drying.

OUR INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES

X-PRECISE SYSTEM OF THE DISC SECTION

The unique technical design ensures precise machine guidance in the track. Thanks to that, the entire width of the disc cultivator is used because there is no drifting of the machine.

DOUBLE-ROW REAR PACKER LAYOUT

The two-row layout of rear packers provides better stability at high speed than a one row design, and also eliminates the gap in machines with two rollers in one row. The machine must work in a steady and stable manner to achieve a levelled field without waves.

TWIN-DISC MOUNTING SYSTEM

One arm for two discs provides a high material throughput. Crop residue can easily flow through the machine (large quantities of straw, crop residue after grain corn). Most compact disc harrows only have one arm per disc. Such design restricts the flow of material namely in wet conditions, or when there are large quantities of crop residue.

RUBBER SEGMENT DISC SECURING

The mounting of two discs on one arm provides twice the space for rubber segment securing. The rubber segments absorb shocks formed during soil cultivation. The cultivator works fast and without maintenance, even in very difficult conditions. The rubber is high quality, with a long service life.

MAINTENANCE-FREE BEARINGS

The ball bearings with an oblique contact are closed by two static and one dynamic cassette seal with four sealing ribs, and they move in a solid metal body. The bearings are attached to the disc with six bolts. They are oversized, which ensures a trouble-free operation.

HYDRAULIC DRAWBAR

The hydraulic cylinder of the drawbar provides excellent terrain contouring. It removes tension affecting the machine drawbar and absorbs shocks, even at high working speed

SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI - new review from farmer

WHAT DO THE FARMERS HAVE TO SAY?

„We began working with BEDNAR in 2014 with the purchase of a SWIFTERDISC XO 8000 F compact disc harrow. After eight years of effective stubble cultivation, we were very satisfied with its performance, especially with the aggressive discs. Therefore, we decided to switch to the XO 7500 PROFI model, fully equipped with an ALFA DRILL seeder for seeding catch crops, large aggressive discs with a diameter of 560 mm, and a TRASH-CUTTER roller. We are very satisfied with the efficiency of the TRASH-CUTTER roller, as it has completely replaced our mulcher and allows us to perform two operations in a single pass.“
