GEOFORCE ROW SX
GEOFORCE
AUTOMATIC SOWING DEPTH AND PRESSURE CONTROL OF THE ROW
The Kverneland GEOFORCE system is designed to meet the challenges of varying soil conditions by ensuring precise seed placement. Light soils require less pressure, while heavier soils demand more. The system adapts seamlessly, maintaining even depth control and consistent weight on the gauge wheel across different soil types and working speeds. Equipped with advanced sensor technology and double-acting hydraulic cylinders in the setup of the row parallelogram, GEOFORCE automatically adjusts oil pressure to keep each sowing unit at the optimal depth. This ensures uniform germination and consistent field emergence, even in compacted areas like tractor tracks.
A complete lifting of one or more rows is also feasible when creating tramlines.
GEOFORCE’s automated control minimizes operator workload, enhances sowing quality, and reduces production costs, resulting in higher, better-quality yields. Uniform seed placement promotes rapid leaf coverage, lowering weed pressure and the need for chemicals or mechanical weeding. The risk of bird damage and poor emergence from deep seed placement is minimized, benefiting shallow-sown seeds like rapeseed. Precise pressure application reduces fuel consumption by preventing bulldozing effects and allows smooth operation at higher speeds. Additionally, the system extends the lifespan of coulters and wearing parts through on-the-go pressure adjustments, supporting more efficient maintenance cycles.
GEOFORCE is available with the high-speed Optima SX sowing row for maximum efficiency and yield.
