Key properties

The SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI model line is a professional line of disc cultivators with properties suitable for soil cultivation after harvest, as well as for seedbed cultivation.

VERSATILITY

Its true name. See for yourself.

Stubble cultivation after harvest
Seedbed preparation

Stubble cultivation is one of the most important field operations. According to the proper agricultural procedures, it should be done as soon after harvest as possible. For this operation, SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI can be equipped with notched or aggressive discs with a diameter of 520 × 5/ 560 × 5 mm, providing excellent cutting, mixing with soil and incorporation of crop residue. The rear packers consolidates soil and close the cultivated soil profile to ensure even emergence of weeds and unwanted cereal seeds.

The small disc diameter in combination with the high working speed provide a high circumferential speed of the discs, which leads to excellent crumbling and mixing effect of the disc section. If you are planning to use the disc cultivator for soil preparation more frequently, we recommend adding the front Crushbar levelling bar to the SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI, for levelling unevenness and breaking the rough furrow.

X-PRECISE SYSTEM

Perfectly precise disc cultivator guidance in the right track.

SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI models have disc sections arranged in the shape of an X. This innovative technical design eliminates drifting of the machine to the side. That allows the disc cultivator to precisely follow the tractor tracks. The central disc reduces the risk of ridge formation.

INTEGRATED AXLE AND PACKER LAYOUT

Extremely stable even at higher working speed.

The two-row layout of rear packers provides better stability at high speed than a one row design, and also eliminates the gap in disc cultivators with two rollers in one row. The integrated axle ensures even distribution of the machine weight and eliminates its swaying. Moreover, it ensures safer transport and reduces the turning radius of the tractor with the cultivator at headland.

LARGE SPACING BETWEEN SECTIONS

It enables working faster and eliminates the risk of clogging.

Machines can frequently get clogged while stubble cultivating or incorporating larger quantities of crop residue due to low clearance, or when the working speed is restricted to avoid the formation of waves. In their disc cultivator category, SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI cultivators offer the largest distance between the front and rear row of the disc section, 140 centimetres, and the distance of discs to the rear packer axis is up to 160 cm. The frame clearance of 60 centimetres makes it possible to also incorporate large quantities of organic matter or manure.

DISCS AS TRACTOR TRACK ERADICATORS

PROFI design in every detail.

SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI can be equipped with unique tractor track eradicators for perfect loosening of the hardened soil layer. Adding spacers between disc holders can increase the working depth of the discs against other discs in the row by 2-4 centimetres.

HYDRAULIC DRAWBAR

Perfect terrain contouring – always and anywhere.

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

TRASH CUTTER

A cutting roller for tough crop residue.

The SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI cultivator can be equipped with the Trash Cutter roller in the front, an ideal choice for cutting crop residue and hard stalks. Such cut crop residue decomposes better in soil and facilitates subsequent soil cultivation, preventing machine clogging.

ALFA DRILL SEEDING UNIT

Establishing catch crop in one pass.

The SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI cultivator can be equipped with the BEDNAR ALFA DRILL seeding unit while in production, for seeding catch crop and small-seed plants during stubble cultivation, all in one pass. The time and fuel savings are considerable. The seeding unit has a capacity of 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

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

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.

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.

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.

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 disc cultivators 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.

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.

SWIFTERDISC XO_PROFI - new review from farmer

WHAT DO THE FARMERS HAVE TO SAY?

„We started with BEDNAR in 2014 by purchasing a SWIFTERDISC XO 8000 F disc cultivator. After eight years of effective stubble cultivation, we were very satisfied with its performance, particularly with its aggressive discs. Consequently, we upgraded to the XO 7500 PROFI, fully equipped with the ALFA DRILL seeding unit for our cover crops seedings, large 560 mm aggressive discs, and the Trash-Cutter roller. We are very pleased with the Trash Cutter’s effectiveness, as it has replaced our mulcher, allowing us to do two operations in a single pass.“
