Disc Spreader DS Weighing Series
Kubota’s DSM-W and DSX-W weighing spreaders have the advantage of speed-related spreading and high-frequency automatic calibration.
Hopper volumes range from 1300 to 1875 L, and optional aluminium hopper extensions increase this to 2800 and 4575 L, respectively, depending on the weight of the fertiliser.
Spreading width varies from 10 m in the DSM-W1300, to an impressive 54 m, all with even distribution and double overlap. Like our DS standard spreaders, Kubota’s weighing spreaders take advantage of our RotaFlow system, which accelerates the fertiliser granules before they reach the spreading vanes for less impact – all easily controlled via the FlowPilot dashboard.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Automatically calibrated and speed-related spreading helps to prevent over and under dosing, which results in fertiliser input savings and better yields. GEOSPREAD improves accuracy and efficiency by adjusting the fertiliser discharge point and rate, while load cells and reference sensors provide precise weighing information to the system. Kubota’s weighing spreaders are also ISOBUS compatible, allowing for the possibility of precise variable rate spreading and automatic start/stop at headlands.
ROTAFLOW SYSTEM
RotaFlow is Kubota’s own spreading system, in which the fertiliser granules are already rotating when they reach the spreading vanes. This initial smooth acceleration prevents fragmentation due to minimal impact from the vanes, which in turn provides an even, accurate pattern. Thanks to this gentle handling, product spreading characteristics are maintained.
