Seedmatic Air ProModel: 4132 MK2
The extremely
successful introduction of the Air Pro
4132 MK2 air seeder introduced a completely fresh approach to the well known
concept of getting seed and fertiliser out to a wide undercarriage.
Prior to this,
available choices were machines designed for overseas conditions, mainly
European. Predictably, while such machines offer some air seeder advantages,
their foreign design constraints do not always suit New Zealand and Australian
management techniques and operating conditions.
Aitchison decided to utilise their well proven inverted "T" boot
mounted on the same coil spring and disc coulter undercarriage as the hugely
successful Seedmatic 3000 and 8000 Professional series.
Aitchison married this with a world leading seed metering system
and completed the machine by designing these features onto a chassis which
enables contour following ability unmatched by any other competitive product.
It did not stop there - road transport constraints are a real headache these
days and transport dimensions are all important. Aitchison have addressed this problem by designing the Air Pro 4132 MK2 to
fold into class leading compact transport modes. The Air Pro 4132 MK2 folds to a
transport width of a narrow 2.7m (8ft 8")
Australia is well
accustomed to air seeders, many of which are Australian designed and built. Most
are specifically designed to plant large crops areas. The versatile Aitchison Air Pro 4132 MK2 featuring Aitchisons proven existing pasture
rejuvenation abilities was an instant success there.
Success builds on
success, and hard on the heels of the Aitchison
Air Pro 4132 MK2 Australian introduction
came a call for a heavier, even more versatile, larger coverage and higher
capacity machine.
