Mzuri has developed its new Mzuri Pro-Til iGen drill to meet the demand for mounted machines with more output.
Staying true to the Mzuri philosophy, the Pro-Til iGen is a one-pass drill designed to produce the perfect seeding environment straight into stubble, cover crops and grassland. Accurate seeding depth is maintained across the width of the machine and dual reconsolidation is achieved through a full-width packer and individual press wheels.
Aimed at farmers looking for a high-output mounted solution, the new drill has been launched as 4.8m machine that features 15 coulters on a row spacing of 320mm.
Based on the Mzuri Pro-Til core concept, the Pro-Til iGen features a leading tine to prepare a nursery seedbed, dual reconsolidation and independent coulters as standard. Each has its own depth wheel that not only reconsolidates but importantly provides individual height control for each coulter. A simple mechanism is employed to control the height and pressure of the rear seeding wheels, offering exceptional seed placement accuracy across the width of the machine.
Reliable seed delivery is achieved through twin metering units with seed being conveyed via a generous fan system. The iGen’s 2,200-litre tank is pressurised to effectively double output over conventional metering, with the drill operating comfortably at speeds up to 18km/hr.
The Pro-Til iGen is fitted with a twin harrow bar as standard to achieve a uniform level surface, ideal for getting the best out of pre-emergence herbicides.
Mzuri made the decision to expand its mounted offering to cater to a growing market of customers looking for a mounted drill without compromising on reliable establishment or output. Customers can also benefit from expected cost savings of up to 30 per cent compared to a trailed machine.
