Product overviewThe Dynamic Disc Core is a tractor-mounted precision single-seed planter designed for accurate spaced planting on trial plots. Mechanically driven via the PTO, it is available in multiple base configurations (2R light, 2–4R, 5–6R) and offers a low operator platform height and weight-optimized chassis.
Seed metering unitThe high-speed seed metering unit uses radial and spiral slotted discs with a central vacuum to pick and retain seeds. As the disc rotates, seeds travel along the slot and are released at the ideal position for placement without scrapers. Residual seeds are evacuated into a container at plot end and a sluice prevents mixing between consecutive plots.
Benefits- Precision seed placement even at elevated field speeds
- Gentle grain separation due to the slotted-disc principle
- Suitable for multi-crop use (maize, soybean, sunflower, wheat, barley, rapeseed, beet, beans, peas) from 20 cm row spacing
- 100% seed purity in the metering unit
- Maximum planting speed up to 5 km/h
- Row-independent electric sowing drive for flexible plot design and per-row spacing adjustment
- Compatibility with Easy Plant planning software and Smart Feed automation
Openers and configurationThe Dynamic Disc Core can be equipped with various openers (heavy double disc, narrow double disc, short double disc, shoe opener) and is offered in several base machine configurations to match trial requirements (2R light, 2–4R, 5–6R).
