• DRIMAC ZIP.03: Suitable for small to medium farms with varied crops and spacings; three-module configuration reduces working time to approx. 3.5 hours/ha.
• DRIMAC ZIP.04: Four-module machine managing diverse planting schemes; adjustable frame with movable elements up to 3 m width.
• DRIMAC ZIP.05: Five-module version recommended for very large crops; optimal when adapted to the transplanting layout.
• DRIMAC ZIP.06: Six independent modules for extensive areas; covers large surfaces in relatively short times.
