2017 Maschio Gaspardo MONICA MTR 6

The MONICA model is an all-purpose vacuum planter for all types of seeds in tilled or semi-tilled soil. Great operating capacity and minimum transportation is equipped with telescopic 6 variable rows frame with 2,55 m transport width.

Thanks to a simple pin adjustment system is possible to change inter-row spacing in a range of widths from 45 to 75 cm. As it can be used for more crops, this machine can re-pay itself in less time comparing to others.

The smart double-lever selector makes possible to set seed population in just two moves! Thanks to its side position, user can select one from the 16 reduction ratios in the best comfort and absence of dust or grease.

Forget chains, lubrication and dust wear.

No fear while working on high residues, corn stalks cant damage it.

The PTO shaft drive guarantees an even seed plate rotation with no maintenance needed.

Maximum reliability with user friendly operation!

Self-lubricating bushings release oil particles that lubricate the hinge points and are maintenance free.

The double row ball bearings are oversized and guarantee reliability in the most demanding working conditions including rocky soil. Long life is guaranteed by triple seal protection. The hub is dust proof which makes it ideal to work in wet conditions as well.

The scraper has a wear resistant Tungsten carbide profile for NON-STOP working.

The Tungsten carbide scraper makes it very easy to plant in heavy soil conditions.

Our improved seed tube design keeps the precise accuracy that comes from the meetering unit all the way into the furrow. Its special design prevents seed from bouncing during the drop.

When seed falls into the narrow V shape furrow it stops immediately, maintaining an even spacing and a great seed to soil contact. Falling seed speed decreases from 10 to 0 km/h (6 to 0 mph) in less then 1/12 of second.
