Planter Tempo V

The new seed sensor and treaded closing wheels for the Väderstad Tempo planter, offer extended possibilities regarding high precision planting of small seeded crops such as oil seed rape and sugar beets.

Product family Tempo

The heart of the Tempo planter is the unique PowerShoot system, which uses pressure to control the seed transport with great precision. When leaving the short seed tube, a soft press wheel stops the seed and ensures an optimal seed to soil contact. A key part in the system is the electrically driven Gilstring Seed Meter, which uses the pressure to deliver an unmatched singulation and precision at very high driving speeds, without being affected by slopes or vibrations. Each seed meter has an electric motor, which enables individual row shut off, easy calibration and seed rate adjustments from the cab.

The result is a unique combination of high precision crop establishment and exceptional capacity, irrespective of soil type or tillage system on the farm.
