Application Volmer Engineering T-Rubber compact disc harrow

The TR disc harrows in the 1000 series have a 3-part design. In the working position, it is advantageous if the disc harrow adapts to the unevenness of the ground. The floating position offers the following advantages:

  • Despite the flat setting, the soil is worked evenly across the entire width of the machine.
  • On slopes, the lateral inclination of the towing vehicle is compensated for by sinking into the tires.
  • There is significantly less tension in the attachment and the tractor.
  • The machine is easier to pull, which reduces fuel consumption per hectare.

The floating position function electrically switches the oil chambers of the folding cylinders to the tank line. This allows the cylinders to move freely. To retract the machine, the electrically operated valves must be closed again.

Our autoFloat controller automates this function. The system registers that the machine is unfolded and activates the float position. When the machine is to be folded in, autoFloat registers the hydraulic pressure and automatically switches the floating position off.

Many users use the folding function, especially on headlands with wider machines, to increase the distance between the compact disc harrow and the ground.

Important information from the compact disc harrow can be displayed in the vehicle cab via ISOBUS. If no ISOBUS connection is available, this information can also be displayed via a data cable with a separate display. If none of the options described are available, the system also works completely independently.

12 volt coils are installed to switch the hydraulic valves. If 24 volts operating voltage is applied, autoFLOAT reduces this to 12 volts operating voltage. The 12 volt coils can still be used.

This has the advantage that no coils need to be replaced when changing the towing vehicle, e.g. from a self-propelled vehicle with 24 volt operating voltage to a tractor with 12 volt operating voltage.

The box also monitors the folding process on models with a telescopic unit.
