The original 3.0m Cultro 3TC double knife roller launched at Agritechnica 2019 has been joined by 5.0m (5TC) and 6.0m (6TC) widths, can be both front and rear mounted.
Designed to produce an intensive crushing effect in tough stubbles, such as oilseed rape and maize, and to incorporate cover crops at speeds of up to 20km/hr, six knives per roller are arranged across the entire working width. The angle of the blades is adjustable and the compact diameter of the roller body allows for a high number of revolutions and cuts.
The 5.0m and 6.0m models, which fold to 3.0m for transport, are available with a two-bar harrow. They can also be combined with other machines, for example, as a front attachment without a packer and with the disc harrow Joker CT. Another option for the 5.0m-9.0m models is the rear attachment to the tractor and the fitment of different packers such as the RollFlex or RollPack.
The Cultro TC is also available as a rear-mounted 9.0m unit and the five-model range peaks with the trailed 12m (7.9t) model. Both fold to 3.0m for transport. Tractor power requirement of all models is said to be low. 60hp-80hp is said to be sufficient for the 3TC and 200hp-270hp for the 12TC.
