Benefits

  • One metering roller for all crop types, including small seeds: poppy, oilseed rape, alfalfa, etc. (no need to change rollers). Volumetric metering: proportional and accurate. Identical metering units for seed and fertiliser
  • Low tractor draught requirement. The large packer wheels (Ø 900 mm) have lower rolling resistance (compared with smaller-diameter wheels), which reduces the draught needed. Staggering the wheels in the row by 200 mm forwards and backwards reduces soil build-up in front of the wheels, making the drill run more smoothly and improving seeding quality
  • The ESPRO delivers precision at high speed thanks to the CROSSFLEX coulter bar, which places every seed accurately at speeds of up to 17 km/h. CROSSFLEX mounts the coulters on polyurethane blocks on a cross-shaped tube, so the elastomers do not slide but work only in compression
  • The hopper on ESPRO RC models is split into two parts, with two metering and distribution systems, allowing different seeding and fertiliser application options to be combined

With its ESPRO minimum-tillage seed drills, KUHN opened a new chapter in the history of versatile seeding solutions.

Designed to work on ploughed land, on minimum-tilled soil or when drilling directly into crop residue, the drills meet customers’ demands for maximum versatility.
