Unverferth announces the addition of two high-flotation undercarriage options to its lineup of Pro-Force dry fertilizer spreaders (models 1850, 2250 and 2650): an Equalizer track system and in-line walking tandem dual wheels, and ISOBUS-enabled boundary control for optimal fertilizer placement, according to a press release from the company.
The Equalizer track system features a patented cambering action which pivots the track up to 20-degrees front to rear and up to 9-degrees side to side for smooth operation over rough terrain and maximum flotation.
The in-line walking tandem axle undercarriage features front to rear oscillation for maintaining ground contact and smoothing out the ride. Model 1850 features 710/50x26.5 HF-2 tires and wheels and models 2250 and 2650 feature 750/60x30.5 HF-2 tires and wheels. The wider tire design distributes weight across a larger area for improved flotation.
ISOBUS boundary control moderates the speed of the right-hand spinner disc for more precise application around field edges. This feature can be activated using the Raven RCM screen or through the use of a convenient on/off switch.
Pro-Force dry spreaders, depending on model, are available in mounted or pull-type models with 10- to 22-ton capacities and are constructed from premium 304 stainless steel, the company says. The 34” wide belt-over-chain conveyor and dual 30” dished spinners with tapered vanes accurately spread common fertilizers up to 90’ and lime and litter up to 60’. For micro nutrient application, up to three compartments can be added to apply four separate products, each with variable rate.
For additional information, farmers should contact their local Unverferth Pro-Force spreader dealer, or visit the Unverferth website.
