TF 2300 C front hopper with double compartment

The new front hopper, with a total capacity of 2,360 litres, has a double compartment (60% / 40%). In a single pass, this machine configuration is capable of:

• Establishing cover crops consisting of several precisely-dosed species,
• Delivering starter fertilisers or non-mobile mineral elements as close as possible to the seeds,
• Protecting the seeds from pests such as slugs.

For users looking for maximum autonomy, it is possible to fill both compartments with the same product.

The new OPTISEED metering unit with cassettes provides a large application range that can reach 500 kg/ha at 15 kph! Each tank is equipped with two independent metering units. The two separately dosed products can then be mixed (single shot) or delivered separately (double shot). An agitator facilitates the flow of difficult seeds.

This new hopper can be fitted with either a carrying frame or the new front packer. What features does the new front packer have?

• Four large-diameter wheels (Ø 822 mm) that reduce rolling resistance and have an excellent land-crossing capacity,
• A radial structure that improves the hopper’s load-bearing capacity and reduces compaction
• A built-in ballast carrier that accepts up to 800 kg.
   

This new ISOBUS hopper has many functionalities:

• Quick and easy calibration test,
• Automatic GPS-controlled opening and closing function for seeds and fertiliser,
• Independent application rate modulation, by prescription map, for seeds and fertilisers to suit the soil,
• Data transfer to the farm management software possible via agrirouter.
