SAMCO 7100

Output and Precision

The Samco 6 row folding model is designed for large farmers and contractors with the requirement to have a compact high output machine. Equipped with Optima Kverneland pneumatic seed units, the drill offers good quality of sowing regardless of the type and size of the seed. A roller in the front of the drill allows the seed to be sown into a firm seed bed with a constant depth of sowing. This roller is also the drive train for the seeding elements. Two mechanical selectors can be adjusted to reduce doubling of

smaller seeds on the disc and allow larger seeds to be sown without any changes to the seed unit. The cab mounted seed computer, monitors the number of seeds being sow on each unit which is displayed to the operator via the in cab display. Sensors fitted to each seed unit of the machine allow the operator to know when a unit is empty or blocked by sounding an alarm.

Information provided by the computer: - Seed rate per ha for each seeding unit - The number of ha per day - The number of total hectares - The actual speed per hour - Area per hour - The number of hours worked

Quick and easy adjustment of the seeding rate can be done to maximize productivity.

Two track eradictors are fitted to the 7100 SAMCO Drill. Their position prevents soil compaction in the seed row.

The 6-row 7100 is divided into three independent units. This allows the machine to fold to a width of 3.2 meters.

The junctions between the axel drives for the seeding units is made using steel joiners. These by their shape allow easy automatic connection between the 3 units and allow an even seed spacing.

The 7100 SAMCO drill is equipped with a front tank of 1200L This tank includes: - A flushing tank of 120L - hand rinse 15 L - Mixing pot for adding the herbicide to the front tank - A valve for self filling using the machines P.T.O driven pump

The SAMCO Spraylight computer is designed to make the simplest possible operation for the user. Several functions are managed directly by the computer: - Management of spray volume - Management of Ha worked and total daily - Management of herbicide volume remaining in the front tank

The SAMCO Drill 7100 is equipped with a spray system controlled automatically by a computer located in the cab. It takes into account the forward working speed to regulate and spray the correct volume per hectare programmed. A speed of 0.2 km / h speed is required to trigger spraying. Regulating the volume starts as soon as the forward speed to 3.5 km / h. This is necessary to ensure even application of the volume of herbicide and a even coverage of the entire surface to reduce the risk of weed growth.

The film metering units on the SAMCO machine is designed to lay the film on the soil and to cover the edges securely. This prevents wind damage to the film, even while travelling at high speeds, to maintain daily output. Each roll of film covers two rows of maize corn. With the “Easy Roll Loading System,” it allows the operator to change the rolls of film with ease. Spring loaded roll holder units place the new roll in the correct position. Spring tensioned wheels allow the film to be fed into position and to maintain this position while working, eliminating the need of the operator to re- adjust the roll during operation.

Hydraulic Three hydraulic valves allow easy use of the drill: - Lift / Lower the film metering units - Lift / Lower the markers - Movement of the hill side unit To manage 5 hydraulic functions on the drill two combinations are selectable in the Spraylight computer, road combination and work combination. Each film unit can be lifted / lowered independently through the Spraylight terminal to make the use of the drill easier in small parts of fields or in angled parts to maximise the field coverage.

Accurate sowing on side slopes

A Hill side adjustment is fitted to the drill to maintain optimum laying of the film even on the sides of slopes.

Simplicity

To facilitate the work of the operator, the 7100 drill is provided with walkways for filling the seed units safely.

The 7100 drill is equipped with light units required to meet the road standards.

Maintenance Easy and Fast

The locations of the different service elements were studied to optimize the time required for the operator for daily maintenance and guarantee quality of work.
