Quivogne Gladiator 3 m knife cultivator, Veteli

Quivogne Gladiator knife cultivator

A new light cultivator for treating stubble fields to speed up decomposition. Allows high travel speeds, so it is also suitable for faster-paced operators.

Features:

• The Gladiator is a robust machine with knife rollers first and then discs that break the crop residue.

• Also ideal for handling tougher-stemmed stubbles such as oilseed rape, soybean and sunflower.

• Can be used both at the front and the rear of the tractor.

• Recommended ground speed 11–18 km/h

  
  

A new solution for stubble management where the roller knives first cut the crop across the row and the discs then cut vertically and break the surface structure, carrying chopped material into the soil. The knife cultivator can be used both at the front and the rear of the tractor. When used at the front, a verge crusher or another tool can be used at the tractor rear to achieve the desired result.

The use of the knife cultivator speeds up decomposition by incorporating chopped material into the topsoil. Can be used in spring before sowing or in autumn for stubble care.

Benefits:

• Fast working speed saves time and fuel.

• The discs grind soil into the machine, so decomposition starts faster.

• Requires little power, so suitable for many tractor types.

• Long service life: maintenance-free bearings and only the knives and discs are replaceable or serviceable parts.
