Tempo F 6-8

The placement and design of the support wheels maintain the seed depth in all conditions which ensures an even crop. Tempo F offer very high fertiliser capacity with individual row shut-off, resulting in maximised uptime and fertiliser savings.

Väderstad Tempo is a new generation high-speed planter, delivering an unmatched precision at double the speed of traditional planters. No-till, min-till or conventional tillage – Tempo performs exceptionally in all conditions. The crops gets the best start possible which results in an even emergence.

Features may include:

• To ensure optimal depth control, Tempo F is equipped with hydraulic support wheels mounted between the row units, this avoids any tilting in hilly conditions. The wide tyre profile maintains the working depth irrespective of soil type. The large diameter ensures a smooth ride at high speeds, improving planting precision.

• The eight-row Tempo F 8 has four support wheels which are coupled as a hydraulic bogie unit – walking tandem.

• This ensures that the load on all wheels are the same in the field, giving the machine a smoother ride on uneven ground.

• Tempo is designed to fit most tractors. It has a low hydraulic requirement, self-sufficient electric power and requires low draught force.

• Tempo F can be equipped with a large fertiliser hopper and disc fertiliser coulters. Depending on model, the fertiliser hopper contains 1275 or 1700 litres.

• The hopper is easy and safe to access via a platform and its large opening improves filling time and reduces downtime in the field.

• Electric motors enable variable fertiliser rate, offering higher yield with the same amount of fertiliser.

• Together with the seed metering, the fertiliser metering has individual row shut off. This maintains the correct application even on irregular fields.

• The fertiliser is metered through short hoses which improves the reaction time.

• Individual row shut off provides equal conditions for the plant which leads to an even crop emergence and reduces fertiliser costs.

• The iPad-based control system, Väderstad E-Control wirelessly delivers data about each seed that travels through the machine, including seeding quality, skips, doubles, distance in the row, and rate.

• You benefit from user-friendly remote set up and calibration, as well as easy, real-time monitoring and control.

• With the iPad you can upload the most recent program software which allows you to benefit from future developments.
