Influence Of the Granular Size Distribution

Different Size of Fertiliser

  • Granules with a diameter less than 2 mm are considered as very small = dust. 
  • Granules with a diameter bigger than 4,75 mm are considered as very big = grit. 
  • The ideal fertiliser has 80% of the granules in the two middle compartments (2 mm and 3,3 mm) of the granule size box. For wider working widths, like 36 meters, the granular size in the 3,3 mm and 4,75 compartments should dominate. 

Too much dust will make the tractor and spreader dirty and pollute the air. Fertiliser dust is a loss! Too much grit or granules that are too big might damage sensitive crops like spinach, leeks or sugar beet for example. You can use the granular size box even when buying fertiliser to be able to determine the quality of the fertiliser. 

All of our fertiliser spreaders are delivered with a granular size box as standard equipment. The granule size box is the most important tool, which always has to be used when the spreader is being adjusted before spreading. 

CentreFlow Spreading System

No impact, No fragementation, No dust

Kverneland Exacta fertiliser spreaders have an unique feature: the CentreFlow spreading system. This initial smooth acceleration of the fertiliser prevents fragmentation of the granules due to the impact of the vanes. The adjustable discharge point allows adaptation of settings of the physical fertiliser properties. Due to the gentle handling of the fertiliser the spreading characteristics of the product are maintained. The CentreFlow spreading system is designed for maximum performance.

Accurate Spreading Pattern

Large 8 vane discs allow 9m to 54 m spread widths. Double overland spread pattern gives maximal accuracy. The 8 vanes per disc ensure a continues flow of fertiliser to the field. This is important when driving higher speeds and spreading larger quantities. 

Weighing System

The weighing system on Kverneland Exacta CL and TL GEOSPREAD models consists of 4 weighing cells, each with a capacity of 5 tonnes, positioned at the corners of the hopper. All GEOSPREAD models are uniquely equipped with a reference sensor which automatically corrects the measurements for slopes or shocks. The weighing system with automatic calibration compares the actual fertiliser flow with the expected fertiliser flow (based on the area covered) and adjusts the dosing automatically in case deviations occur. This feature will help to prevent over and under dosing resulting in better yields and saving of fertiliser.
