Advantages at a glance:
AirVac:
AirSpeed:
The new metering generations AirVac and AirSpeed basically have a very similar design. They work according to the same metering principle. They can be used universally for a very precise grain singulation for a lot of crops. With different metering discs maize, sunflowers, sugar beet, soyabeans and other bean crops as well as rape and sorghum are singulated reliably.
The AirSpeed system works according to the overpressure principle where the grains are pressed to the perforated disc. The AirSpeed system works according to the overpressure principle where the grains are pressed to the perforated disc. In both metering devices, the grains run through a singulator which sees to it that double seed is avoided. The characteristic of this special component is that it does not have to be replaced when changing crops and that the driver does not have to carry out any adjustments. The contour of the singulator was optimised in such a way that a reliable singulation for all crops is guaranteed.
The basic difference between the two new metering generations is the transfer of the seed from the metering device into the soil: with the AirVac system, after the singulation the seed is led into the bottom of the furrow by means of the drop tube and if required is pressed by the catching roller. With the AirSpeed system the singulated grains are captured by an air current, accelerated and shot with the air current through the shoot pipe into the soil. They are caught and embedded by the mounted catching roller.
In both metering devices the grains pass a grain sensor in the drop - shoot tube for an optimum monitoring of the sowing success. The measurement technology of the sensor is able to count grains, identify spacings between the grains and thus inform the driver about double spots and gaps.
The transferred values of the singulation accuracy are clearly displayed at the terminal of the machine and additionally increase safety for sowing. The new metering generations AirVac and AirSpeed are driven electrically as standard, and each row can be controlled individually. This technology allows for the well-known functions individual row switch-off, SectionControl, VariableRate and tramline control.
For VariableRate the metering systems have been designed in such a way that the seed quantity can be changed individually for each row. With regard to the tramline control the sowing density can be adapted individually in the rows at the left and at the right side of the tramline. With these advanced functions all measures to increase precision while sowing can be used to full capacity.

Optional twin tyres for a row spacing of 45 and 50 cm:
In addition to a precise placement of the grains the exact positioning of fertilisers or plant protection agents is very important for single grain sowing. The rows of the Maestros, thus, can be equipped with different components to provide an optimum solution for all requirements and demands.

Which press wheel is suitable for which application?
Rubber and profiled press wheel
Finger and spike press wheel:
The closing of the seed furrow is the last time when you can influence emergence. Depending on the type of soil, the sowing method, sowing depth and the crop, the requirements differ. Therefore, the Maestros can be equipped with different press wheels and press wheel combinations to be able to achieve an optimum work result for all crops in all conditions.
What do you need an automatic coulter pressure control for?
AutoForce guarantees an always consistent embedding of the grains in changing conditions. Thus, more regular emergence and populations are achieved. The contact pressure of the row unit is measured with a sensor at the two support wheels. This pressure (= nominal value) is previously set in the terminal. You can choose between three pressure levels: 25 kg – 50 kg and 80 kg (the values can also be adapted individually). With changing soil conditions, the row needs more or less power to be able to keep up the set placement depth. The contact pressure would change. The sensor detects this, and the system regulates the contact pressure in such a way that it always corresponds to the nominal value that has been set. This is possible due to the design of the machine which allows for transferring weight to the seed bar. The coulter pressure automatically varies between 150 kg and 350 kg. Thus, the grain is always embedded at the same level. A too shallow placement as well as soil compaction can thus be avoided.
Especially in uneven shaped fields, ContourFarming offers many advantages. For large working widths there is a speed difference between the inside and outside radius of the seed bar. The system measures this difference and adjusts the seed rate by means of a speed change of the metering units proportionally across the working width. Thus, the set seed rate is maintained precisely across all rows.
