The Centaya pneumatic harrow-mounted seed drill is a comfortable to operate and precise seed drill,
which can be mounted, from choice, on either the KX or KG rotary cultivators or also on the CombiDisc
mounted compact harrow. In working widths of 3 m to 4 m and with hopper capacities of 1,600 l or
2,000 l, the Centaya harrow-mounted seed drill is particularly effective. The Centaya harrow-mounted
seed drill is available with RoTeC Control single disc coulters or TwinTeC double disc coulters.

      1       ElectricDrive electric metering drive: the electric meter-
              ing drive is regulated via any ISOBUS terminal. The cali-

              comfortable and offers additional functions, such as, for
              example, pre-metering of the seed in field corners and
              the increase and decrease of the seed rate on the move.
              For detecting the forward speed of the drill several dif-
              ferent signal sources are potentially available. In addition

As all the coulters are suspended in a parallelogram guided
frame, a central and stepless adjustment of the coulter
pressure is possible. It is possible, for instance, in the area
behind the tractor wheels, to increase the coulter pressure
by another 6 kg using additional tensioning springs.
As an option, hydraulic coulter pressure adjustment is avail-
able allowing the comfortable matching of the coulter pres-

the coulters to be raised by up to 145 mm. This coulter lift                    –                                  +

Exact harrow

The Exact harrow can be used in conjunction with the
RoTeC pro coulter system as well as the TwinTeC coulters.
The Exact harrow tine has a thickness of 10 mm, is low-wear-
ing and provides excellent seed coverage. The Exact follow-
ing harrow serves for both coverage of the open seed furrows
and for levelling. It operates, even where there are large
amounts of surface straw, blockage free. With its individu-
ally pivoting harrow elements, the Exact harrow follows
the undulations of the soil perfectly, ensuring an even seed
coverage on soils either with or without straw.
The harrow pressure is adjusted mechanically by pre-tension-
ing the harrow springs. When equipped with the optional          Exact S following harrow

Coulter harrow on the TwinTeC coulter

Each TwinTeC coulter can be equipped as an option with
a directly-mounted covering harrow tine. The coulter harrow
creates additional loose soil over the furrow. This is particu-
larly of help in heavy soils or in sloping terrain where they
can prevent capping as well as the formation of any drainage
runs.
Thanks to the sprung harrow brackets, even in undulating
ground the depth guidance is carried out without problem.
In addition, every harrow can be adjusted as required. To
compensate for wear and tear, the harrow can be readjusted
in 7 steps down to a length of 150 mm. Also the intensity
of the harrow is settable via the repositioning of a pin in
three steps (30°, 45° and 60°). Its profile needs less space
and less weight and, due to the shorter space needed,
sowing can be carried out right into field corners.

The GPS-Track parallel steering aid proves to be an enormous
aid for orientation in the field, especially also on grassland
or fields without tramlines. It features various track modes
such as A-B line and contour line driving. The deviation from
the ideal line is graphically displayed via an integrated light
bar. Thanks to the clear steering recommendations with exact
tramline distances you always remain in the track.
