Spirit 600-900C

Spirit 600-900C is equipped with two Fenix II metering systems that provides a constant and reliable seed metering. The strong motor permits high seed rates at high speed.

Due to the high location of the integral fan, the dust intake is minimised, thereby increasing drilling accuracy. 

To optimise the air distribution according to the respective seed and fertiliser type, all airflows are adjusted with the integrated AirBalance system.

To ensure an even seed depth in hilly terrain and at varying soil types, Spirit 600-900C is equipped with an active seed coulter pressure.

Sensors in the hydraulic system immediately registers if Spirit is located on a crest or a trough. If so, automatic valves directly compensates for an increased or decreased pressure. Thereby the seed coulter pressure is kept at a constant pre-set value, irrespective of which working angle the seed coulters are in, relative to the rest of the machine.

The result is an impressive seed placement and an even emergence over the entire field.

When lifting or lowering the seed drill at the headland, the automatic sequence control lifts or lowers the working zones one by one. When entering the field the system makes sure the front tool is lowered into the soil before the seed coulters and the following harrow. 

By optimising this automatic lifting and lowering sequence, the seeding and fertiliser accuracy is enhanced at the headlands. 

This system makes it possible to drill the headland first, without disrupting the result when drilling the rest of the field.

Väderstad SeedEye is a unique system for seed counting and seed monitoring. With SeedEye farmers can easily set the number of seeds per square metre, without the need for calibration. SeedEye ensures excellent seeding results with full control.

Spirit is equipped with the iPad-based control system Väderstad E-Control.

In addition to an extensive control and monitoring of the seeding process, the control system offers the possibility to adjust the working depth of the front tool, the seed coulters as well as the hydraulic following harrow, while driving on the field.

User-friendliness, cost-effectiveness and an easy to update system are some of the major advantages.
