Description

AgriEuro tractor-mounted ripper Romagna type

The AgriEuro 5 tynes subsoiler Light Series 170 type Romagna is a machine for subsoiling (or scarifying) the soil.

Equipped with a 3-point hitch, the Light Series model of this implement also allows its use with less powerful tractors.

Subsoiling consists of breaking up the compact, more or less deep layers of soil. This process is commonly alternated with tilling, which does not turn the soil, but breaks up clods.

This specific soil preparation process allows:

A considerable saving in time, halving the time needed to till the soil with a tiller;
Preserving the content of organic substance and micro-organisms in the soil;
Increasing in useful space for roots;
Increasing in drainage capacity;
Improving permeability and aeration;
Not leaving the tillage pan, differently from ploughing;

AgriEuro Serie 170 Romagna Series Light 5 Tynes Tractor-mounted Ripper

Subsoiling

The force required for a ripper is generally less than that required for a plough. This makes it possible to operate on an area almost twice as large as the one that can be tilled with a tiller.

This tyne subsoiler (also called Ripper) features a working depth of up to 25-30 cm depending on the power of the tractor. The machine is connected to the tractor via te 3-point hitch and operated by the hydraulic lift.

The ripper function is particularly effective with compact, dry soil, allowing it to be broken up effectively. Indeed, thanks to its action, the soil will be loosened on the surface and marked by a series of small furrows.

The tillage from the bottom up creates a certain amount of macro-porosity and crumbling in the soil, thus causing little or no change in the profile of the layers. In not very compact soils, the operation is in any case effective in breaking up clamps and improving water drainage.

This multi tyne ripper consists of a sturdy support frame and 5 tynes, shaped and angled forward to facilitate effective soil penetration due to the tractor fast forward motion.

Main features

This ripper is equipped with sturdy tynes featuring a safety device with bolt. They are mounted on a double bar tubular frame.

The tyne subsoiler will come with a wade range of accessories:

3-Point hitch:
Safety bolt on each tine that protects the cultivator against damage in case of hitting a rock or a buried root. Indeed the bolt is designed to break on impact, preventing further damage.
Reversible and replaceable tyne;
Pairs of adjustable iron gauge wheels
Pairs of clod shattering fins which allow a better and more effective soil tillage.
