Kinze Manufacturing is introducing its new 5670 pivot fold, split row model planters for the 2025 planting season. The company says the new planter delivers enhanced productivity, increased operator convenience and efficient serviceability.
Kinze will introduce the 5670 planter at the 2024 National Farm Machinery Show Feb. 14-17 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville.
The versatile 5670 pivot fold, split row planter, available in 12/23-row and 16/31-row configurations, plants both 15" and 30" row widths and can be used as a dedicated narrow-row planter or a multi-crop planting workhorse. The lift-and-pivot frame provides balance and stability in the field, narrow width when transporting and enhanced residue flow with the exclusive cast push row unit.
“Building on our 5900 and 5700 model planters, the 5670 is packed with standard features that boost productivity in diverse planting environments, along with expanded controls and conveniences for the operator,” said Susanne Veatch, president of Kinze Manufacturing.
The model 5670 lineup of features and options include:
- New Kinze 5000 Series electric drive pull and push row units with standard features that boost productivity and minimize daily maintenance, and a full complement of residue control, closing wheel, fertilizer and seed handling options to fulfill the unique requirements of each farm.
- An all-new clean and robust frame featuring 24" of toolbar clearance, 12" of row unit travel, an adjustable active hydraulic weight transfer, up to 30 degrees of wing flex, enhanced residue flow, VF radial tires and a narrow transport width. In addition, it supports bulk fill hoppers, push split row units and optional onboard fertilizer tanks all at the same time.
- Blue Vantage display-controlled onboard 300-gallon fertilizer system featuring a diaphragm-style pump, delivery rates of 2-25 GPA, optional factory-installed plumbing to connect to saddle tanks or a nurse tank, and an automatic tank leveling system to maintain equal fertilizer levels in both onboard tanks while planting on slopes.
- Accurate seed spacing and depth control with True Rate vacuum electric meters that plant a wide variety of seeds at speeds up to 8 mph, True Depth hydraulic downforce with 650 lbs. down and 150 lbs. uplift force, and standard adjustable active hydraulic weight transfer — all controlled by the Blue Vantage planter display.
- Reduced maintenance requirements from fewer grease zerks, easier adjustments and longer-life components. This includes greaseless and shim-less gauge wheel pivot arms, large cast parallel arms equipped with double bushings, disc openers with double-row bearings and hardened scrapers, and greaseless row markers.
The 5670 pivot fold, split row model planter is Kinze’s latest addition to its exclusively electric 5000 Series planter lineup that debuts for the 2024 season with the new 5900 and 5700 front fold planters.
