Amazone expands semi-mounted range

This can be supplemented with an additional furrow, producing a compact six-furrow semi-mounted reversible plough that impresses with its ability for ploughing boundaries, according to the company. The plough is available as a Vario plough with hydraulic furrow width adjustment. There is also a choice between hydraulic overload protection or the standard shear bolt.
With the Tyrok 400, Amazone now offers a complete semi-mounted reversible plough range with a choice of five, six, seven, eight or nine furrows. With the downward expansion of the product range, a semi-mounted reversible plough can now also be offered for smaller tractors with lower lifting power. Even in very hilly regions where a lot of tractive power is required, Amazone customers can now purchase a small, semi-mounted reversible plough designed for large tractor classes. The main features of this plough are its higher output, even under continuous load, perfect quality of work and outstanding robustness. At the same time, the Tyrok offers a high level of comfort thanks to its very simple, reliable and precise adjustability.
The new base machine of the Tyrok is also equipped with SpeedBlade plough bodies. These plough bodies have been specially developed for use at higher working speeds. The main wear point automatically shifts further and further back towards the centre of the plough body when increasing the working speed from say 6km/h up to 10km/h. As a result, the main wear point of the SpeedBlade plough body is on the enlarged front shin of the mouldboard and not back on the main part of the slatted or solid mouldboard, even at these higher speeds, meaning, therefore, that only the front shin of the mouldboard needs to be replaced initially on the Tyrok when used at higher speeds. This reduces wearing metal costs enormously compared to other designs.
The points protect the wing and prevent blockages caused by plant debris, while the open frog ensures easy traction even under difficult conditions. Different body profiles are available depending on the type of application and soil type. The sophisticated geometry and the hardening process reduce the tractive force requirement and thus fuel consumption. For extreme conditions, there are hard-faced HD points or wings, HD pro points and wings with tungsten carbide and bolt-on interchangeable points. The wide furrow clearance is another big plus of the SpeedBlade bodies, especially with the increasing use of wider tractor tyres.
