Ecomat TM
Features and benefits for the farmer
• Time saving
• Reduced fuel and tractor costs
• Less risky crop establishment method than reduced tillage
• Less dependent on the weather than reduced tillage methods
• Reduced use of chemical compared to reduced tillage methods
• Better and more consistent yield quality
• HIGHER PROFIT
Ecomat TM – features and benefits
• makes an optimal seedbed
• working 10-18 cm deep
• turns the straws and weeds
180 grades
• levels and consolidates the soil
• contains the capillary effect
• quicker transformation of residues
• clean soil to seed in
• less problems with fungi
• less problems with weeds
• less problems with slugs
• less use of chemical
Ecomat TM – features and benefits
• better organic/humus conditions, better soil
• optimal mix of manure • great capacity, working width
up to 4,00 m• working speed 8 – 12 km/h• working capacity 2 – 3 Ha/h• very low power requirement: • 110 – 130 HP for 6-furrow
150 – 180 HP for 8-furrow • very low fuel costs• increased yield• Higher Profit
Ecomat TM– the construction
• the Ecomat looks like a plough, but it is much more than an ordinary plough
• all parts except the headstock are new – Headstock 200
• up to 4,00 m working width • new plough body with a new
skimmer turn the furrow 180 grades – 20 kg lighter
• new beam – 20 kg lighter
Ecomat TM– the construction
• new frame construction :more transversal
• closer to the tractor less lifting power
• Packomat is an important part of the Ecomat
• built together with the plough :very good balance
• a 3,00 m working unit levels, crushes clods, consolidates and makes a perfect seedbed
• Optimum working result
Ecomat TM compared to normal ploughs
• 10 – 18 cm is enough in most soils• makes the soil structure better• Ecomat keeps the best features of
ploughing• nice seedbed with clean soil• higher speed : 8 – 12 Km/h• higher capacity : 2 – 3 Ha/h• lower costs
Kverneland Ecomatcompared to minimum tillage
• ploughing has always been the safest and best way
• safer technique• mixes or buries straws and
residues in a better way• better when using manure• nice and clean seedbed • less problems with fungi• less problems with weeds
Kverneland Ecomatcompared to minimum tillage
• less problems with slugs• less problems with weather• can work in rather wet
conditions, even with light rain• great speed: 8 – 12 Km/h• great capacity: 2 – 3 Ha/h• low power requirement -
only: 110 – 130 HP for 6-furrow
150 – 180 HP for 8-furrow
Kverneland Ecomat – use of manure
• manure in big quantities (30-50 t/Ha) can be ploughed within minutes after spraying
• manure will be placed at a depth of 10 – 15 cm = optimum depth for the plants
• great capacity 2-3 Ha/h• better and cheaper technique
than wagons with manure incorporators
Kverneland Ecomat the special body
• shorter, higher with more cylindrical form
• turns the soil 180 grades• increases the turning effect• very flexible - prevents stopping• the beam is hidden behind the
bottom to prevent stopping
• equipped with:- Quick-Fit share- Landside-knife - Leg protection (plastic)- Trashboard
Ecomat with plastic bodies
• a very good alternative in most soils, especially in
loose and sticky soils• will go clean in all soils – no sticking
Steel or plastic body?
• for heavy soils • for soils with a lot of stones
• for very loose soil• for sticky soils
Plastic body with full equipment
Plastic Body with:
- Quick-Fit Share
- Skimmer-knife
- a must for plastic bodies
- Trashboard 1
- Trashboard 2 on top
- Leg protection
A very good alternative
for excellent working
Ecomat – easy to transport
• Ecomat is very easy to set from transport to working position
• when in transport the Packomat
is folded over the Ecomat• Ecomat 8-furrows, 650 mm,
should be transported in ”butterfly-position” on a combined depth/transport wheel
• the change is manoeuvered hydraulically from the driver seat
• makes it easy to start at the
edge of the field.
