AMAZONE Cenius mounted cultivator now with hydraulic overload protection

The Cenius Ultra from AMAZONE is a new model to the mounted cultivator range and comes in working widths of 3.00 m and 3.50 m. The outstanding feature is the C-Mix Ultra tine with its automatic overload protection via a hydraulic cylinder. This robust tine system offers a high level of reliability and durability, especially under intensive operating conditions.

 

Flexibility on any soil

The C-Mix Ultra tines really come into their own in variable soil conditions. The release force can be infinitely adjusted between 500 kg and 800 kg to ensure optimum adaptation to differing soil types.

The tines can move upwards more quickly on light soils with large stones at the lower release force setting of 500 kg. This protects the frame of the mounted cultivator from excessive loads and any stones remain under the surface. Where there is compaction, or on heavy clay soils, the pressure can be increased up to 800 kg. This ensures a consistent, reliable loosening of the soil.

 

Operational reliability under the toughest conditions
The high lift heights of the individual tines mean that the machine maintains the desired optimum working depth of up to 35 cm, even under the toughest of conditions. The C-Mix Ultra tines offer a high level of operational reliability and effectively protect the mounted cultivator while ensuring optimum soil movement.

Stepless adjustment of the system is easily and conveniently carried out from the front on the headstock. The pressure gauge is also located there and is easily visible from the tractor cab for convenient monitoring.

In addition, the Ultra overload protection system protects the cultivator in a unique way: The system consists of individual hydraulic cylinders fitted to the tines along with central hydraulic accumulators and this provides a highly damped resetting of the C-Mix Ultra tine to the neutral position after triggering. This feature significantly reduces any wear and tear on the overload protection system, even if it is triggered frequently.

The new C-Mix Ultra tine can be combined with the wide C-Mix share system. The range of points on offer means there is the right share type for every application, from standard shares to hard-wearing HD shares.
