2024 Great Plains 35' No-Till Air Drill NTA-3510

The Great Plains 35' No-Till Air Drill utilizes a field-proven design, centered around a direct link between the implement and the cart.

The Great Plains 35' No-Till Air Drill features a field-proven design, centered around a direct link between the implement and the cart.

In this integral design, the implement is semi-mounted to the cart, allowing the implement to raise and lower independently across undulations in the field. The hydraulic weight transfer system further enhances flexibility and ensures equal weight is distributed to all rows.

To aid in penetration, this Great Plains No-Till Air Drill utilizes a spring-loaded coulter that is separate from the row unit. This allows coulter depth to be set hydraulically for residue and moisture conditions while the independent opener provides precise seed placement in all conditions, from severe no-till to conventionally tilled soil. Dimpled air towers randomize the seed in the air flow, while the transition cone at the top of the tower gently changes direction of the seed, providing even seed distribution to all rows.

Features may include:

The close-coupled design offers exceptional maneuverability when backing into a storage shed or the corners of a field. Active hydraulic weight transfer maintains even, consistent penetration across the entire width of the implement.

Weight transfers hydraulically from the center section to the wings for even penetration and seeding depth across the entire width of the drill.

A single fan supplies air to a divided manifold, where the star-wheel meters drop the seed into the airflow of each tower. The towers use a transition cone to uniformly divide the seed to individual rows. A full-length seed tube completes the process, delivering seed to the bottom of the seed trench.

This system splits no-till seeding into two operations: penetration and seed placement. Preloaded at 450 lbs., frame-mounted coulters get the job done by working at the desired depth, ensuring optimum seed placement for a uniform stand. Increase coulter depth to penetrate hard, dry soils, or reduce coulter depth in soft conditions. This allows the 10 Series parallel linkage, double-disc openers to properly place the seed. Seeding depth is set by the 18-position T-handle at the rear of the opener. Choice of 5/16" fluted, ¾" wavy, or patented 5/8" Turbo blades.

Centrally located grease banks make servicing the implement quick and easy.

Options include single 3"x13" double rib; 3"x13" center rib, 2"x13" smooth, or 3"x14" peak press wheels. Also available are 1" x 12" double-V press wheels.
