MS Frame Components

The MS planters are made using 5”x5” frame. This type of frame offers a vast choice of assembly configurations, row spacings and equipment.

1. On the Monosem planters, all the wheels drive the seed discs. This system ensures a smooth drive and so a better planting regularity. All are equipped with a slip clutch for a smooth drive of the seed discs in irregular ground conditions. The wheel units are adjustable, planting flat and/or on beds.

The wheel units that can be adjusted in height enable planting on flat ground or on ridges.

2. The MS planters are equipped with a central or end-mounted gearbox. These gearboxes have 16 ratios for precise adjustment of the seed population.

3. The Monosem turbofans are reliable, high performing and ensure a regular vacuum for optimal operating of the seed discs. Our standard turbofans have 19 outlets and are driven by hydraulic motor at 450 rpm. On option, they can be driven by PTO at 450 rpm, 540 rpm, and 1000 rpm.

4. The MS planters are delivered with a vacuum clean-out system which easily and rapidly retrieves all the seeds left in the bottom of the metering boxes. All the seeds are retrieved in a transparent container.

+ Emptying is very simple, not a seed lost, using the vacuum clean-out system delivered as standard equipment.

The assembly of the units with clamps ensures a reliable and solid fixing of the units. If necessary, the units can be moved in order to modify the alternative spacing by loosening the clamps. This method of fixing excludes the risk of the metering unit sliding sideways when working.

The MS planters can be equipped with optional row markers.
