2024 Maschio Gaspardo Julia Isotronic 16 Row

Within MTR range, JULIA ISOTRONIC introduces the new concept of large trailed precision planter, designed for large farms that require to plant on minimally tilled soils or directly on hard ground. Thanks to over ten years’ experience in the precision plater sector, JULIA ISOTRONIC is available in 16-row versions with 27.6 or 29.5 in spacing or 24-row with 27.6, 29.5 or 31.5 in spacing.

MTR HD planting unit is characterised by even more robust structural solutions than the classic MTR unit: The parallelogram connection system with AIR SPRING for the adjustment of the pressure of the single unit on the ground, the 14 in front disc coulter, the 14” furrow closing wheels.

The Central Seeding Delivery system allows the transport of the seeds from the centralised and pressurised hopper to the single planting unit. This is made possible thanks to a pressurised pneumatic conveying system that guarantees a constant flow of seed to each individual distributor body.

MTR HD planting unit is coupled to the trailed type frame with two folding and floating sections up to 10° of maximum tilt, ensuring a transport footprint of 11.5 ft which facilitates movement. Given the large working width, the impressive hopper supported by the main frame ensures high autonomy thanks to the internal 528.3 gallons partition for the seed and 1849.2 gallons for the fertilizer.

In case of greater technological needs, the ISOTRONIC version with electric transmission and ISOBUS communication system, allows digital control of the planter and the use of all Precision Farming functions.

Features may include:

MTR HD features distinctive elements for working on difficult terrain:

The system of air bearings mounted on each single element with centralised control from the tractor cab allows to exert a ground pressure up to 551.1 lbs.

Hopper of the individual units increased to 15.8 gal.

The system created is made of cast steel and uses V1 x 14” rubber wheels.

The disc coulter opens the soil while the trash wheels release the residue along the planting row to facilitate seed placement.

The trailed two-section frame, which can fold at the front, allows to better follow the contour of the ground.

The pneumatic seed transport system guarantees a continuous flow to the individual distributors, doing without individual hoppers.

The 16.5 in diameter by 0.25 inch thick furrow opener discs create a very narrow “V” furrow. Thanks to their triple seal, SUPER SEAL type bearings ensure a long life, which prevents dust and humidity from entering the bearing. The mud scraper guarantees maximum cleaning of the disc thanks also to the WIDIA (tungsten carbide) profile with zero wear.

Thanks to the rocker arm system, each wheel moves independently of the other and vice versa.
