Farmax Ripper
Especially for the Australian market, Farmax has designed a subsoiler frame that fits on the Farmax rapide trailed.
With the Farmax Ripper it is possible to do an extra depth tillage with the Rapide 450. This makes it possible to prevent soil compaction and to spade with this machine in one pass.
What makes this machine unique is the hydraulic protection of the tines, if the machine encounters a strange object in the soil, it automatically folds back hydraulically due to the back pressure. This hydraulic protection prevents any damage of the frame and tines.
The Ripper consists of 8 tines of 75 centimeters long that can be individually arranged over the working width according to your own wishes. The subsoiler is also equipped with interchangeable steel tips, which increases the ease of work.
Check out our roller options.
In addition to spading, the essence of correct soil preparation also lies in the choice for which type of roller is chosen after spading. In order to be able to offer a suitable roller for Farmax users, we offer different types of driven and non-driven rollers. The type of soil is important when choosing a roller. You should also take into account the type of succeeding crop you want to grow. Some plants prefer a slightly coarser or finer seedbed.
Do you have specific technical questions about a roller or would you like to have a different roller behind your spader than our existing ones? We are happy to advise you about the possibilities.
