Mechanical seed drill VELES series

disc2-row3-point hitch

Short description
Seeding module for a wide range of crops enabling double-row (wide-row) sowing for improved root nutrition zone and reduced plant competition.

Description
Mechanical weed control, soil aeration and water balance regulation achieved while maintaining a loosened seedbed. Suitable for harrowing before or after sowing to crumble crust and support seed germination. Wide-row two-line sowing increases the feeding zone, promoting stronger root system development compared with conventional single-row methods. Sowing parallelograms are mounted on a universal frame with a three-point hitch for easy attachment.

Simultaneous application of liquid fertilizer or inoculant directly to the seed row is possible using additional tanks (400–6000 l). Seeding depth is precisely adjusted and controlled via a soil-copying wheel. Quick adjustment of row spacing is performed with a single screw mechanism. The seed disc is manufactured from hardened steel and runs on maintenance-free double-row ball bearings. Dirt guards prevent soil adhesion to pressure rollers in wet conditions. The parallelogram with a spring system increases soil pressure on the seeding disc from 80 to 160 kg to improve seed-to-soil contact and emergence.

Features and further details

• Wide-row two-line (double-row) sowing increases the nutrition zone for stronger root development versus classic sowing.
• Sowing parallelograms mounted on a universal frame with three-point hitch for compatibility and stability.
• Optional direct application of liquid fertilizer or inoculant to the seed row (requires additional tanks 400–6000 l).
• Precise seeding depth adjustment and control via soil-copying wheel for consistent placement.
• Quick row-distance adjustment through a single-screw mechanism.
• Seed disc made of hardened steel with maintenance-free double-row ball bearings for durability.
• Dirt guards prevent soil build-up on pressure rollers in wet conditions.
• Parallelogram with spring system increases soil pressure on the seeding disc from 80 to 160 kg for improved seed-to-soil contact.
• High-quality seed distribution: double-row seeding redistributes the plant nutrition area without thickening while maintaining desired seeding rate to reduce intra-species competition.
