MOUNTED COMBINATION DRILLS

Alpego design and manufacture a wide range of seed drill options from the Jet M and Jet X rear mounted combinations to the ASPRO and ASMAX front and rear combination drills.

The range spans simple 3m solutions to customised 8m wide units for the highest of work rates, it also includes innovative design features to improve accuracy and make the drills simple for the operator to use.

JET-M

Rear mounted combination drill

The Jet M pneumatic seed drill is designed for ease-of-use and maximum versatility. It is compatible with Alpego BG, RMT or RTEK power harrows and suitable for working in combination with tractors from 85 to 250hp.

355mm Boron steel single disc coulters
- Anti-block flap
- Twin bearings
- 60kg coulter pressure
- Rubber shock protecting mounts
- protecting coulter arm mounts
- 43cm coulter stagger

Quick attach
“Fast” - Flexible configuration that allows the seeder to be detached from the implement very quickly (in less than 10 minutes) in order to use the harrow independently (For BG power harrows)

“Auto level” - Maximum precision configuration thanks to the attachment of the seeding bar to the rear roller that allows the seeding depth to be maintained even when changing the working depth of the power harrow. The complete seeding bar or complete drill can be demounted  in around 15 minutes to allow independent use of the power harrow (For RMT and RTEK power harrows)

RDS Super-Plus control box & GPS speed sensor
- Manages seeding operation and tramlines
- Pre start metering function
- Monitors fan, metering roller and seed level

Stainless steel AIRON electronic metering unit

FEATURES & BENEFITS

SEED BED PREPARATION AND SEEDING

A coulter bar for all conditions

Parallelogram mounted roller
Alpego use a parallelogram linkage between the power harrow and rear roller. This ensures the angle of the frame that the drill is mounted on stays the same also allowing the power harrow depth to be adjusted without affecting the coulter pressure or depth.

Seeding bar adjustment
There is also a parallelogram linkage to adjust the coulter depth, this ensures the coulter bar stays parallel to the ground and therefore the front and rear coulter depth pressure is the same.

 

Coulter spacing
There is 43cm clearance between the two rows of coulters which ensures crop residues and soil flows through the discs even in sticky wet conditions.

Press wheel
An optional rubber press wheel is available to help maintain consistent depth when drilling shallow and improved seed to soil contact.


 

A - Rubber shock absorber: Discs are mounted on a rubber shock absorbing clamp that allows up to 60kg of coulter pressure.

B - Single boron disc: 355mm Boron steel discs provide consistent penetration and longevity.

C - Double roller bearing: Alpego disc coulters are mounted on two roller bearings for reliable work in tough conditions.

D - seed flap: A seed flap behind the coulter tube prevents blockage in wet conditions.


 

METERING AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

Precision for even application

AIRON

Precise gentle metering for small and large seeds

Stainless steel metering unit suitable for large and small seeds and Fertiliser.

The AIRON metering unit has been designed to provide simplicity and ease of use from the calibration test, through to cleaning out when drilling is finished. It utilises interchangeable metering rollers as well as adjustable gears to allow metering of various of seed types and fertiliser and features simple manual half side shut off.

DOSAL

Accurate high capacity metering.

Stainless steel metering unit suitable for large and small seeds and Fertiliser.

The Flexible DOSAL metering unit is designed for maximum volumes alongside precision for small seeds. It utilises an adjustable metering roller and adjustable gears to achieve unbeatable accuracy with small and large seeds as well as fertiliser.


 

TURBO ROTAL

(JET-X ONLY)

Even distribution for uniform application

The Turbo Rotal system is an innovative solution for an issue that affects all drills especially when using long seed pipes at wider working widths. It consists of a spinning impeller located in the centre of the distribution head that promotes more uniform distribution of the seed to the individual outlets.

This improves the consistency of seed volume delivered to each outlet by 50% which, coupled with Alpego attention to detail throughout the other elements of the metering and distribution, provides market leading accuracy.

REAR ROLLERS

Consolidation is important for consistent establishment.

Packer Roller

Alpego packer rollers are available in 480, 520 or 570mm diameter depending on the power harrow they are fitted to. They are fitted with centrally adjustable individual scrapers and the levelling board is mounted to the front of the Packer roller to prevent multiple adjustments needing to be made when the power harrow depth is being altered.

Trapeze Roller

The Trapeze roller is 505mm in diameter and has notched ridges which provide additional drive in soft soil. The notched cast-steel roller ridges are spaced at 12.5cm or 15cm centres to line up with the drill coulters and provide a small furrow for the disc coulter to work in. Whilst consolidating across the full width the Trapeze roller leaves firm soil behind the ridges and loose soil in between which can then be used to cover the seeds. The end result is excellent soil to seed contact and capillary action of moisture towards the seed which improves germination and establishment.
