f-drill CB

For all kind of combinations and applications in various working widths

• A wide range of fine to larger seeds and fertiliser can be applied.
• It allows seeding and fertilising in one pass
• It allows the combined application of seeds and companion crops
• In spring the Kverneland f-drill can be used as a fertiliser hopper with the Optima F or with the Kultistrip for strip tillage. When joined with a power harrow drill combination such as the Kverneland e-drill, the f-drill can be used as an additional seed hopper for sowing companion or spring crops.
• In summer and autumn, the hopper can be combined with the power harrow range and coulter bars to have a compact combination from 3.0 up to 6.0m working width.

Modern design for low maintenance and long lifetime

• The f-drill made of plastic has a modern design which ensures low maintenance and long lifetime also when working with corrosive material such as fertiliser.
• The f-drill front hoppers are available in two sizes and three versions.
• The f-drill compact has a capacity of 1600 litres and the f-drill maxi up to 2200 litres.
• The standard version is equipped with one ELDOS metering unit. Either seeds or fertiliser can be filled into the hopper.
• Higher application rates can be achieved by the duo version, as two ELDOS units distribute two times up to 400kg/ha of one type of fertiliser or seeds.
• The hopper of the plus model is divided into two sections. This allows either two types of seeds or one type of seeds and fertiliser to be applied in one pass. The ratio of the hopper split is 60:40.

Easy filling and lifting

• The large hopper capacity of up to 2,200 litres reduces the set-up time.
• The hopper covers open sidewise and lock automatically supported by gas cylinder.
• The hopper made from plastic can easily be filled using e.g. big bags, a front loader or a telescopic handler.
• The parking wheels are available for quick and easy storage. The f-drill can easily be hitched. There is no PTO shaft needed.
• Pipes installed on the side of the cab convey the seed or fertiliser to the coulters by an air stream.

Increased safety and manoeuvrability

• The dissolved structure of the Kverneland f-drill ensures an even weight distribution across the machine arrangement, giving the tractor the best balance at maximum capacity.
• This improves both safety and manoeuvrability whilst at the same time giving the driver an unrestricted view over the entire machine set-up.
• The wheel packer with lifting function relieves the load on the front axle while maintaining good steering ability.
• The packer is self-steering and pull-attached which reduce power requirement and fuel consumption. In addition it also avoids the bulldozing effect.
• Especially in wet periods, the dissolved design with its better weight distribution reduces the impact on the soil structure

Precise seed metering, automatic and safe

• ELDOS is the electric driven metering device for Kverneland pneumatic seed drills.
• ELDOS is steered by Kverneland e-com software, which is fully ISOBUS compatible.
• By the automatic section control, GEOCONTROL, the metering device stopps/starts automatically. Double and/or missed seeding on headlands or odd-shaped fields is avoided. Special sensors ensure complete functionality from the tractor cab.
• Calibration is automatic, and a range of interchangeable seed metering rotors can be swapped - even when the hopper is full - without the need for tools. Sensors monitor the metering rotors, and give a warning if the wrong metering rotors are accidentally installed.
• The f-drill is available with one or two ELDOS metering units. Two ELDOS are possible if larger quantities have to be applied as with the duo models.
• If the hopper is divided as plus version, there are also two ELDOS available to have the possibility to apply either two different seeds or seeds and fertiliser in one pass.
• The entire system is based on the Venturi principle. No additional effort is required to keep the system tight. The Venturi system guarantees the accuracy of the desired dosage and also the adherence to higher application rates.
