2024 Maschio Gaspardo Orietta

ORIETTA is a precision vegetable planter. The result of the experience that GASPARDO has gained over the years in precision sowing, the new sowing element for vegetables offers high precision and homogeneity in the distribution of seeds. Equipped with a mounted, fixed or folding frame, ORIETTA can deal with over 20 rows at different inter-row spacing, depending on cultivation and management requirements.

The vegetable planting unit guarantees perfect control and setting of all operating parameters. The rocker structure with front and rear wheels allows to follow any unevenness of the ground and to easily adjust the sowing depth. The parallelogram connection system with load spring guarantees the adjustment of the ground pressure of each single unit. All this makes it possible to plant even on raised beds, horticultural typical hydraulic-agricultural arrangements.

ORIETTA boasts a new distributor that guarantees better accuracy in planting and greater delicacy in contact with the seed. The new internal profile of the distributor allows a better flow of the seed towards the suction area, while the new plastic anti-leakage coulters hinder the passage of even the smallest seeds, minimizing friction with the disc. Finally, the holes of the anti-turbulence system together with the new bronze seed ejector, allows a more precise and delicate deposition of the seed.

To meet the needs of the most specialised horticulturists, ORIETTA allows multiple configurations of the unit. Narrow or wide depending on the desired row spacing or short or long to ensure greater stability and seed coverage. Finally, the distributor allows the use of seeding discs for single, double or triple rows, combined with dedicated seed selectors and ejectors.

Finally, the 36-speed mechanical transmission always allows to find the right gear guaranteeing the distribution not only of the seed but also of the microgranular fertilizer and the fertilizer.

Features may include:

ORIETTA is available with two types of frames:

• Fixed frame up to 19.7 feet.

• Hydraulic folding frame with vertical closure for transport widths of 8.4 and 9.8 feet.

The transmission wheel ensures high vertical travel guaranteeing planting even in very particular conditions such as cultivation on raised beds.

The transmission with derailleur gears and sprockets offers 36 gears with different configurations that allow seeds to be planted at a variable distance between 0.25 and 9 inch based on the wide range of discs.

ORIETTA offers two types of units:

It allows band, single and double row planting thanks to the possibility of changing the coulter.

It allows band, single, double and triple row planting thanks to the possibility of changing the coulter.

With a few simple operations it is possible to change the sowing configuration by acting on:

• Seed discs;

• Seed selector, seals and dedicated ejectors;

• Coulter.
