5 Layout and function
The following section provides information on the implement structure
and the functions of the individual components.
Fig. 28
The implement enables direct seeding with simultaneous fertiliser
spreading.
The large hopper (Fig. 28/1) has three chambers for carrying seed
and fertiliser.
From three metering units (Fig. 28/2), driven by a star wheel (Fig.
28/3), the metered seed/fertiliser quantity is carried into the air current
generated by the blower fan (Fig. 28/4) and further to the distributor
heads (Fig. 28/5), which evenly distribute the seed-fertiliser mix over
all of the ConTeC coulters (Fig. 28/6).
For seed/fertiliser placement, the "on grip" ConTeC coulters penetrate
into the soil. Supported by the trailing press rollers(Fig. 28/7), the
ConTeC coulters maintain a constant seed placement depth. The
seed placement depth is adjustable.
The Condor has a closed system for the overpressure built up by the
blower fan, which includes the large hopper. The overpressure
escapes at the coulter openings and allows the even distribution of
the metered seed-fertiliser mix.
The ConTeC coulter optimises the seeding accuracy, area efficiency
and service life.
The implement can be folded to a transport width of 3 m.
