McConnel will showcase its new Consolidator range of premium arable rollers at Cereals 2016.
The company has enhanced its product portfolio after its recent merger with Twose of Tiverton, and can now offer a comprehensive choice of three, five and seven-gang rollers with working widths from 6.4m to 18.4m
These robust rollers are among the heaviest in the industry – delivering even ground pressure across the width of the roller and feature a unique castellated ring profile that ensures constant soil pressure for greater moisture retention and a weather-proof finish.
Each section centre-pivots independently for a smooth and even reaction to undulating ground conditions, ensuring close contour-following and outstanding seed to soil contact.
Strength and durability are boosted by an exceptionally robust design, triple sealed bearings and 65mm steel shafts, while the heavy-duty frame design allows for excellent contour following when the hydraulic system is in the float position.
Four different roller configurations are available with a choice of 22-inch and 24-inch Cambridge rings and 22-inch and 24-inch Cambridge rings with Cambridge breakers available.
The rollers come with a wide range of options including spring-mounted levelling boards to break down clods and plough ridges leveling the ground to deliver smooth and even consolidation.
Two rows of 8mm spring tines are also available. When working in crop stubble the tines help to evenly distribute straw and surface residue – distributing slug eggs and encouraging a flush of volunteers to germinate.
