e-drill maxi plus

• The metering device ELDOS accurately measures the required volume of seed by the distinctive rotor and discharges it into the seed injector where is is mixed with the air stream and then conveyed through the diffusor tube and the seed delivery hoses to the coulters. 
• The distribution head is mounted in a protected position inside the seed hopper.

• ELDOS is electric driven by e-bas and e-com, the e-com edition is fully ISOBUS compatible, e-bas works as stand alone controlled system.
• GEOCONTROL by GPS signal is possible which avoids double seeding.
• Special sensors ensure functionality from the tractor cab.
• Five standard rotors are delivered: for fine and large seeds or fertiliser.
• The exchange of the rotors is quickly and easily done without any tools.
• Application rates from 1 to 400kg/ha are possible (depending on working speed and width).
• The metering device is always easily accessible. 

Calibration

• Very simple calibration test due to the separate seed guidance.
• A remote control allows the driver to operate the calibration process at the metering device.  
• No gear has to be adjusted. The driver simply enters the desired values into the terminal, presses one button to start at the metering device and that’s it.
• The calibration is done automatically.
• A calibration flap with an integrated gate prevents any seed from dropping into the hose.

Adjustable hopper capacity offers extra flexibility

The e-drill maxi plus is offered with a hopper capacity of max. 2,100 litres which is divided into an adjustable hopper ratio of 60:40, 70:30 or 100:0 with two independently working metering devices positioned either side.  Two electronic low-level sensors, adjustable from outside, monitor small quantities of rape as well as larger quantities of beans. The full hopper volume can be used when sowing one sort of seed only.

The e-drill maxi plus with double entry CX-II coulters and divided hopper places the fertiliser within the seeding row. The fertiliser or a second different crop is placed together with the seeds in just one working pass.

This is especially suitable e.g. for phosphoric fertiliser to support the initial germination and development of the plants in the most efficient way.

By an extra outlet of the CX-II coulter double entry, various combinations are possible:

• two types of seeds,
• one type of seed and one type of fertiliser or
• one type of seed combined with e.g. slug pellets
• one type of seed.

For an extended scope of application, Kverneland has integrated the well-known Kverneland  a-drill.  This extra seeder with separate hopper and metering device will allow applying an additional sort of seeds/fertilizer all in one pass.

Sustainable and efficient

There are good reasons to promote the establishment of additional crops or to apply extra nutrients whilst seeding. An additional crop will suppress weed growth but not compete with the leading crop. The extra crop catches the mineral nitrogen in the soil as well as air nitrogen, when mixing with leguminous plants, transforming it into organic nitrogen. Thus, nitrogen will still be available for the next crops. Fertilisers are applied most precisely to support plant growth, specifically during youth development avoiding its wash-out into groundwater.

Wide scope of application

The scope of application and possible variations for this integrated seed drill are manifold:

With the e-drill compact/maxi, one type of material is precisely deposited by the CX-II coulter; whereas the second material is applied via the baffle plate from the integrated a-drill into the soil flow of the following harrow:

1. 2 types of material in one pass: 1 type of seed (e.g. rape) plus slug pellets

2. 2 types of seeds: e.g. barley by the coulter plus clover/grass via the following harrow

The e-drill maxi plus, as the combined grain and fertiliser model of the power harrow mounted seed drill, is already equipped with a divided hopper with adjustable ratio of 60:40, 70:30 or 100:0 and two independently working metering devices.

Here, two sorts of material are precisely deposited by the double-entry coulter CX-II (2 distribution heads); whereas the third sort of material is applied via the baffle plate of the integrated a-drill into the soil flow of the following harrow:

1. 3 sorts of material in one pass: 1 sort of seed (e.g. wheat/barley) plus fertiliser in the sowing rows plus slug pellets via the following harrow
2. 3 sorts of material in one pass: 1 sort of seed (e.g. wheat/barley) plus fertilser in the sowing row plus 1 sort of seed (e.g. clover) via the following harrow
3. 3 sorts of material in one pass: 2 sorts of seed in different sowing rows (e.g. beans & rape seed) plus slug pellets via the following harrow
4. 3 sorts of material in one pass: 2 sorts of seed in the sowing row (e.g. beans & rye) plus 1 sort of seed (e.g. clover) via the following harrow

 Advantages

• Utmost efficiency and cost saving by combined application of various sorts of seeds plus/or fertilizer all in one pass
• Encouraged root development
• Reduced risk of erosion
• Increased sustainability
• Increased biodiversity and humus content

For the electronic control of the e-drill, a whole range of steering systems is available
