Description
The classic AEROSTAR-CLASSIC tined weeder with direct spring-loaded tines is ideal for weeding standard crops such as grain, corn or soybean. It is considered an “entry-level model” in weeding technology.
Advantages
The concept of Aerostar Classic
- Increased tine vibration due to special plastic holders
- One central lever per section to adjust the tine position
- Sturdy, robust and durable tube frame
- Effective operation because of narrow line spacing of 2.5 cm / 1″
- Wide range of tines as options = the right tines for every job
- Large frame clearance
Direct spring-loaded tines
The AEROSTAR-CLASSIC & – EXACT is equipped with direct spring-loaded tines.
These have many advantages:
- Tines swivel – ensuring effective weed control also in the row without harming the crop
- Highest adjustment range of the tine pressure on the market – enables gentle blind weeding and aggressive crust breaking
- Vibration ensures self-cleaning of tines – guarantees operation without clogging
- Weeds are uprooted from soil and dirt – fast drying out prevents re-growth
- State of the art tine guidance system – ensures weed control over the full surface
Line spacing of 2.5 cm
The line spacing has a decisive influence on the working effect and quality of the operation. With a 6-row arrangement of 60 tines per 1.5 m / 59.1″ field, an effective line spacing of 2.5 cm / 1″ is achieved. The basic requirement for efficient weed control is the smallest possible line spacing.
Precise tine position & tine movement
The tines on the weeder are fixed to the sections by plastic holders to prevent them from twisting so the tine is aligned in the exactly working direction.
The spring coil of the tine is mounted below the holder to ensure free tine movement and vibration out of the spring coil. As movement of the tine is not limited or restricted, breakage is very unlikely.
Stable operation
Due to the solid and accurate frame construction the operation of machine and frame is very steady, even at higher working speeds. Also on hard soil the tined weeder can apply sufficient pressure on the tines without making the frame swing. In addition, the frame is designed to withstand heavy loads and many seasons of operation without any problems.
Large frame clearance
A large frame clearance is guaranteed by the position of the sections and the frame. This ensures operation without damaging the crop even when the plants are higher (up to 55 cm / 21.7″ – depending on tine position and length).
Simple mounting of a seeding box
The P-BOX-STI or P-BOX-MD seeding boxes can be mounted on all tined weeders. In addition to various additional options for the seed drill, steps for filling are available.
