2020 Kuhn North America Premia 4000

KUHN Premia mounted seed drills provide high-quality results with seeding units for mixed soil types and a covering harrow designed to work under variable conditions.

KUHN Premia seed drills give users the possibility of working alone or in combination with a power harrow, reducing the number of passes over a field. KUHN engineers have paid special attention to easy adjustments and simple access to adjustment points.

The Premia has been recognized for its application rate and precision. Its well-designed hopper has a wide opening for easy filling and cleaning. The flow rate can quickly be checked with the machine on the ground or without being hitched to a tractor through simple and easy-to-access adjustment points. An additional grass box, which also has a wide opening for easy filling, can be added for drilling small seeds.

Precise, Versatile Seeding

The volumetric seed metering by fluted rollers, with built-in small seed rollers, is suitable for all seed sizes and shapes. The helical grooves dose applications rates from 1 – 400 lbs/acre. This distribution system is accurate and reliable throughout the whole operation. It provides regular seeding rates and distribution in the row even on slopes or uneven ground and is unaffected by vibrations. The Premia metering system is controlled by the seed drill’s two wheels via a 6-cam selector. This ensures reliable control and a regular flow through uniform rotation for small seeds with according low application.

The small angle of the single disc reduces soil movement and the cast iron seeding tip, positioned in line with the disc, both cleans the disc and precisely positions the seed in the furrow. The disc shape ensures penetration into the soil maintaining accurate seeding depth.

A half-width shut-off disengages the left half of the seed drill, if it is necessary to seed with half width along field borders.
