AD-P Super

AD-P Super
 The new dimension in professional
sowing combinations

More output – more profitability:

• through acreage outputs of more than
3 ha/hour with a working width of 3 m
• through an enlarged seed hopper capacity
• new metering unit for high outputs but with
precision
• unrestricted suitability following the plough
or mulch sowing
• compact design – minimal lifting power
requirement
• reduced preliminary work necessary thanks
to a coulter pressure of up to 50 kg on the
RoTeC+ coulter

4 m output – with a 3 m working width!
The AD-P Super pneumatic pack top combination in
working widths of 3 m and 4 m is particularly suited to
farm sizes of 200 to 500 hectares. The high acreage
outputs are achieved thanks to the flexibility of the
combination for both mulch sowing and following the
plough but yet at much higher operating speeds.
The filling times are reduced thanks
to the large seed hopper.
AD-P Super
Introduction
Seed bed preparation –
consolidation – sowing
With the 3 m AD-P Super capacities that are usually
found in a 4 m combination are achieved. The new
RoTeC+ coulter with coulter pressures of up to 50 kg
enables high speed sowing at up to 15 km/h even on
minimally worked soils and yet with a constantly high
sowing quality. Less previous operational passes, ability
to work in less than suitable soil conditions and higher
forward speeds mean more hectares during the season.
Higher efficiency pays off!
Less capital expenditure and less var-
iable costs for cultivation increases
profitability.

 Optimally matched components: Compact with
rotary cultivator and wedge ring roller

Compact design
Modular assembly system
Due to its compact design with favourable centre
of gravity the superbly strong AD-P Super sowing
combination requires a comparatively low lifting
power with the components close coupled to the
tractor. Less tractor rear wheel load reduces the
depth of any wheel marks.

Thoroughly thought through in every detail

Strong frame
The clean, simple frame concept of the AD-P Super
with its integrated roller and coulter fixing frame not
only helps to save weight but also increases the
robustness.

Large hopper
The capacity of the basic, 1500-litre hopper can be
increased to 2000 l by adding an extension. Large
amounts of leftover seed can easily be removed
using the quick emptying flap.

Precise metering
The metering rollers with their new distribution sys-
tem can easily be exchanged allowing the precise
metering of all seeds
As well as the standard mechanic drive via a star and seed rates with
wheel and Vario gearbox a fully electrically driven excellent distribution
metering system is available as option. In conjunction along the row even at

Coulters, harrows, electronics

Electronics aid precision!

Well thought out, universal usage and easy to operate.

Both AMALOG+ and AMATRON+ on-board computers
control the tramline and pre-emergence marker func-
tions with sensors monitoring tramline creation and
making re-programming to another tramline rhythm
very simple. The working status of bout markers and
tramline rhythm, area sown and fill level are displayed.
In addition, the AMATRON+ allows in-cab adjustment
of the seed rate in random increments and the creation
of intermittent tramlines on slopes. In this case grain is
alternately sown and not sown within the tramline, so
that, although the tramline is still visible, water erosion
down the tramline is prevented by the sown areas.
With the aid of the integrated serial interface the
AMATRON+ in combination with a GPS terminal can
be also used for part area site-specific sowing.
Additional advantage: AMATRON+ is an overlapping
The electric drive is also controlled by the AMATRON+. non-machine specific operator terminal being also
useable with AMAZONE fertiliser spreaders and
AMAZONE crop protection sprayers.

Practical report with the AD-P Super by Herrn Täger-Farny

“On our farm the AD-P 303 Super has replaced a 4 m combination, where, due to the larger seed hopper capacity
and a higher forward speed thanks to the new sowing discs, the daily output is by no means inferior.
The permanent loading on and off the transport wagon is no longer necessary and so the flexibility has also
been very much increased. A big additional advantage is, that with a working width of 3 m, due to the front packer
and appropriate tractor tyres the operational quality and depth
guidance of the soil tillage implement is also improved. This has
been obvious by the superb and even field emergence in spite of
heavily varying soil conditions.
With 150 HP in front of the AD-P 303 Super we were able to
achieve good acreage outputs of up to 20 ha per day.”

Hydraulic coulter lift Hydraulic harrow lift

For solo operation the coulters can be hydraulically
raised so the system can be quickly adapted to the
prevailing conditions. In areas of poor straw incorpo-
ration preliminary work is possible just in part areas
or areas on the headland or where compacted can
be specifically pre-loosened.
To maintain the transport width of less than 3 m For
transporting the AD-P 403 Super on longitudinal trans-
port trailers the harrow can be folded upwards via the
optionally available hydraulic harrow lift.
