SWIFTERDISC XN Disc cultivator

High quality, swift, inexpensive stubble cultivation up to 12 cm.
Zero maintenance bearing discs lasting for a lifetime.
High operating speeds of up to 15 km/h due to the customized design.

The performance of the 520×5 mm discs is not affected by wear and tear due to the truncated cone shape.
The Alfa Drill option to drill covering crops.
A-discs (aggressive) give you the option of a better cutting and mixing effect.

SWIFTERDISC XN is a mounted disc cultivator of short conception, with individual suspension of the discs with rubber segments that are ready for swift, low cost, quality stubble cultivation.

The SwifterDisc XN can also be used for seedbed preparation minimizing the need for conventional tillage systems.

Each arm is fitted with a pair of discs (Twin-Disc system). The machine aggregates with a tractor over a 3-point hitch cat. II./III.

Agronomic advantages of the machine Cost savings benefits You can use the SWIFTERDISC for

Better quality work Why should the cultivation be done immediately after the harvest Stable tillage, flat land

AGRONOMIC ADVANTAGES OF THE MACHINE

The stubble cultivated immediately after the harvest takes advantage of
the higher soil moisture content.
Fast stubble tillage forms the foundation for a managed germination process of second growth and weeds following the harvest.
Shallow tillage means greater humus content in the upper soil layer creating a more permeable soil (no soil crust).
Fine crumbling due to the high speed of the machine and the resulting high circumferential speed of the packers, which delivers a flatter field without clods.

Compaction of the cultivated surface ensures the even germination of volunteer plants and weeds.
Agrotechnical deadlines are met as a result of the machine’s high performance and coverage.
All-purpose tool for stubble tillage, soil preparation and intercropping with an Alfa Drill.

COST SAVINGS BENEFITS

Quality tillage in one pass – one pass instead of many, quality cutting, mixing and incorporation of plant residue due in particular to the profiled aggressive A-discs.
High operating speeds – means cutting costs and the number of hours spent out on the field. The high speeds are reached thanks to the high stability of the machine.

Large area capacity – SwifterDisc is a light disc cultivator which can be connected to tractors of lower output, while the operating width and operating speed guarantee unusually high performance.
Low maintenance costs – the components have a longer lifespan.

YOU CAN USE THE SWIFTERDISC FOR

Shallow and fast stubble tillage to stimulate volunteer plant and weed germination and prevent capillary action.
Maintain the moisture in the soil by compacting the surface with a rear packer immediately after the harvest.
Seedbed preparation which includes levelling the furrow.

The incorporation of plant material such as intercrops.
Planting intercrops and grasses using an Alfa Drill.

BETTER QUALITY WORK

A-DISCS: A NEW DIMENSION TO WORK QUALITY

Specially shaped discs of 520 mm in diameter and a wall thickness of 5 mm with significantly high cutting and mixing abilities compared to other classic cutting discs. A-discs have a large number of blades around their circumference for the easy incorporation of large amounts of crop residue. These sharp blades cut up the crop residue efficiently. The profiled shape also allows a larger amount of soil to be lifted up than with standard serrated discs. Each profiled disk takes soil and takes it to the plant mulch where it is mixed. This concept delivers excellent results.

THE TWIN-DISC ENSURES A BETTER THROUGHPUT

The discs work in pairs on one arm. This solution means the distance between each arm is larger (50 cm). This results in more space for the material to pass through the machine. The machine can work smoothly even when the combine has left clumps of straw on the field. SwifterDisc cuts it up, spreads it out, mixes it with soil and covers it.

3-POINT LINKAGE

Connect it to the tractor quickly and effortlessly by using a -point linkage.

COMFORTABLE TRANSPORT

Transport on public roads and through the fields is comfortable and safe.

WHY SHOULD THE CULTIVATION BE DONE IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE HARVEST

The foundations for successful crop growth are laid when harvesting the previous crop. By tilling the stubble immediately after harvest, you
can use the moistness of the soil, which was protected from the sun by the stems. Fast tilling ensures the reliable and even germination of
volunteer plants and weeds.

The basis for success here is a short interval between the harvest and sowing. Whether the farming is done by using a minimum-tillage system or a conventional method it is irrelevant.

A DISC DIAMETER OF 520×5 MM

The standard model of SwifterDisc cultivators is fitted with serrated discs with with a dimension of 520×5 mm. For an additional fee, you can have the machine fitted with aggressively profiled A-discs.

SECURING OF DISCS

Rubber segments prevent bumps created during soil tillage. The machine functions quickly without maintenance regardless of tough conditions. High quality, long-life rubber is used!

SIDE SECTION SHIELDS

SwifterDisc machines can be equipped with side shields (discs) which prevent the formation of ridges around the edges of the machine. Individual passes cannot be seen.

Pracovní hloubka se nastavuje jednoduše na vedení válců stroje, popř. na předních podpěrných kolech. Pracovní hloubka lze nastavit mechanicky nebo hydraulicky.

HYDRAULIC DEPTH ADJUSTMENT

The working depth can easily be set using the roller control, or the front supporting wheels. It can be set mechanically or hydraulically.

MAINTENANCE-FREE AXIAL BEARINGS

Axial ball bearings with oblique contact are encased with two static, one dynamic cassette and four rib seals in a solid metal body.
1 – dynamic cassette sealing with four ribs,
2 – metal body, 3 – static sealing,
4 – four-point bearing, 5 – double sealing

STABLE TILLAGE, FLAT LAND

For tillage, a level surface must be maintained both horizontally to the direction of work and along the direction of work. To achieve flat land without mounds, the machine must operate smoothly and in a stable manner.

Any unwanted movement of the machine through, e.g. rocking, creates an uneven field. Till with the stable SwifterDisc with its cleverly positioned centre of gravity.
