Lemken Evolves the Rubin 12 for a crop to more depth

Editorial Interempresas11/12/2013

Already in Agritechnica 2011, with the 'concept' of the Rubin 12, Lemken entered a terracing of compact disk that allows a crop with a depth of until the 20 cm. After two years of intense work and numerous proofs of field, the Rubin 12 already is smart for the production in series. The position of the disks and the form of the beam have optimised and for the models mounted also has developed an entirely new concept of the wheel of support.

“The Rubin 12 is the only terracing of disk of the market that has disks of 73 cm, something that allows to cultivate to a depth of until 20 cm, stirring up perfectly the earth and to greater speed, to some 15 km/h. It treats of a terracing that has liked a lot, there is not something the same in all the fair and go to carry it to the Spanish market in his version suspended of 3 m because it is guarantee of success, and especially because in a lot of zones goes to substitute the plough”, transmitted us in Agritechnica José Antonio Pita, director of Sales in the Zone West and Portugal of Lemken Iberia.

Two rows of toothed concave disks, with a diameter of 736 mm, allow to the Rubin 12 work to the same depth that a cultivador, but mixing and desmoronando with greater intensity in the process. The symmetrical disposal of the disks in each row allows to work without lateral traction, even to high speeds of driving. The angle of the disks, of 20° with regard to the floor, and the position bent of the steering in 16° provides an optimum penetration and allows a crop homogéneo from the 7 cm.

The Rubin 12 stands out by his impressesive disk of 73 cm.

Lemken Presents Azurit, a new prototype for seeds of precision

The engineers of Lemken, anxious for investigating in new approaches for a more efficient agriculture, have found in the technology of seeds of precision an opportunity for repensar completely a concept that was not previously in his range of products. The result of this deliberation is the sembradora of precision Azurit, presented for the first time in Agritechnica like prototype. The current technology, that plants the seeds in a row with distance between grooves of 75 cm, is not optimum for the plant. In consequence, the aim was to create an element of seeds with a better longitudinal distribution. The conventional placing of the credit in a row at the side of the row of seeds also has seen improved.

The prototype Azurit for seeds of precision, also was presented in Agritechnica.

With the system 'Delta Row' in the Azurit, the engineers Lemken found the key for an optimum space distribution of the plants. The seeds do not plant in an only row, but rather staggered with two grilles of double disk by unit of seeds in a row opened at intervals of 12,5 cm. The distance between the elements of seed keeps in 75 cm, so that there are not changes for the operation of the cosechadoras. The variable space until the 37,5 cm also is selectable.

Seeds it in open row attains using a new unit of singularización of accionamiento electrical with two disks drilled synchronised. They distribute the seeds alternatively on both grilles. The placing of the seeds of staggered form increases the distance between the two plants, providing until 70% more than surface for the water supply and of nutrients.
