2020 Kuhn North America Axent™ 100.1 Base

2020 Kuhn North America Axent™ 100.1

The Axent™ 100.1 trailed fertilizer spreader is a large acreage dry fertilizer and lime applicator providing operators with high precision rate control, wide working widths, high capacity and lime capability, Opti-Point and Vari-Spread and ISOBUS compatibility.

The KUHN Axent™ 100.1 trailed fertilizer spreader is the ultimate large-acreage dry fertilizer and lime applicator. Innovative technologies including EMC rate control, Opti-Point, and Vari-Spread create an industry-unique combination of high capacity and high precision that saves fertilizer and offers outstanding return on investment. Wide working widths reduce the number of passes required in each field, lowering fuel consumption and preserving soil structure. ISOBUS compatibility makes all of this capability easy to use and integrate into your operation.

Wide Working Widths

Operators are able to spread fertilizer with high precision, up to 164’ depending on the material. Wider working widths mean fewer passes in a given field, saving you valuable time and fuel.

Electronic Mass Flow Control (EMC) is a unique technology, well-established and proven after years of experience. The patented torque-based system measures and continuously adjusts the application rate on each disc separately for complete flexibility and high precision.

Border spreading is accomplished on the Axent™ fertilizer spreader by reducing disc speed and/or drop point so fertilizer stays within the boundaries of your fields. Border spreading can be engaged on either the left- or right-hand side via the control terminal in a similar manner to the KUHN Axis® fertilizer spreader.

The Vari-Spread system saves fertilizer by shutting off sections in point rows and oddly shaped fields. In manual mode, four sections per side are selectable (eight total). In automatic GPS mode, the system adjusts the drop point and disc speed constantly, resulting in a continuously variable spread width. Opti-Point takes the guesswork out of headland turns, starting or stopping the discs at just the right moment to reduce overlap.

The Coaxial Distribution Adjustment (CDA) system has two important features that make it unique:

• The pivoting hopper base enables quick adaptation to various fertilizers and working widths by adjusting the drop point of the fertilizer onto the spreading discs.

• Specially designed metering outlets close to the center of the discs allow multiple supply points to the paddles. This helps ensure constant fertilizer flow and an even spread pattern.
