R: 3.00m -3.50mF: 4.00m – 4,50m

Cutting discs and only levelling tines on arms

• Higher versatility with 3 rows Better dispatching of the residues through

the working width and depth Better incorporation, no line of straw

disturbing seed to soil contact in min till process

Effective deeper cultivation possible without creation of a pan (to be highly considered in min till operations)

Intensive mix in the top layer offering ideal profile

Aerobic bacteria can process the residues in a better way into organic material for plant profit

• Better top layer profile with ideal seedbed for good rooting and plant development by access to manure

CLC pro – 3 rows

CLC pro – Rigid frame

• CLC pro range:

Higher horse power ability More compact (81cm beam spacing) 2 tines options and their share

equipment More levelling and packing

equipment available

• Rigid frame : 3,00m - 3,50m - 4,00m• Available for tractors up to 300 hp• New linkage concept with bolted

headstock• Better stress dispersing after FEM

calculation

CLC pro – Fold 3 rows• CLC pro folding range as 3-bar is completing

the new range and offering the full line beside all existing 2-bar models

• The folding range is built up with the same principal as the rigid one

Higher horse power ability More compact (81cm beam spacing) 2 tines options and their share

equipment More levelling and packing equipment

available

CLC pro – Fold 3 rows

• Folding models 4,00 – 4,50 – 5,00m available for tractors up to 350hp

• Central frame design 200x200mm• 2 folding section for less setting

and components• Symmetric tine arrangement for

better pulling• Parking stands• Better stress dispersing after FEM

calculation

FEM calculation• The Finite Element Method is a computer simulation

helping to design each element according to the data and is securing the first step of the development.

Shaking test• at full load on a shaking robot during a specified

period• replicate the machine lifetime over few weeks to

control de reliability of the structure

The 3 critical phases of a frame development

Benefit:

We are using this know-how for all our new products. In parallel, a protocol of functional tests is managed in various countries to collect farmers opinion. We are investing a lot to guarantee the best performances.

Strain gauge test• physical tests in the field and in transport by using

strain gauges which can register the real stress in the material.

• By cross-checking with the 2 previous phases the structure maximum power allowance can be approved

CLC tine – Bolted tine holder

The CLC line is getting as a standard the bolted tine holder for all models.

Benefit: easy to take few tines away when

using the CLC models as loosener less welding on main frame is more

reliable and giving the all structure a longer life time.

CLC tine – High clearance

870.

mm

• the high under beam clearance of 870mm is ensuring blockage free operation

• well proven simple and robust design with no grease nipple at all = low maintenance (due to heat treatment by cementation no wearing between the parts, no greasing necessary)

• Unique leg design made out of a tube enabling the C shank to move side ways +/- 14 cm with the short tine, and +/-20 cm with the long tine, each side, thus reporting less stress to the structure

• light weight concept, complete tine is only 35kg.

• User friendly technology

CLC tine – Maintenance free zone

70x40mm

• Always the best penetration ability in all soil

• The power demand and the fuel consumption are limited.

1. point is working by lifting the ground to make a perfect cracking of the top layer

2. the upper part is doing an intensive mixing also with low power demand due to its receding shape.

Benefit: This particular angle design offering 2 distinct

front lines is avoiding to flick poorer soil back on top of the ground, interesting when such cultivator equipment will be used for preparing seedbed in one pass.

CLC tine – Special angle

α

2

• All parts of the tines are heat treated, providing

an extraordinary reliability and long life• Extraordinary vibration capacity providing

intensive crumbling.

• Unique leg design made out of a tube

enabling the C shank to move side ways +/- 14 cm

with the short tine, and +/-20 cm with the long tine,

each side, thus reporting less stress to the structure

• This technique is also allowing to use lighter

material, in order to save lifting capacity and

pulling requirement

• Here is a tine in our laboratory showing how far it can flex. The side pulling force to go up to 20 cm is 1,200kg. The tine holder stays in place, just the leg is flexing due to the heat treated tube

CLC tine - Flexibility

CLC tine - Flexibility

Benefit: Higher pressure, at 5cm for a total of 640.kg interesting when

hard dry soil Frame protected all the time Unique on the market : the release force decreases when the

release height increase

CLC tine – Auto-reset

The shear bolt leg design is providing a Vibromat effect

Benefit:

higher pressure at the point with 2T to ensure a clean breaking of the bolt

Vibromat effect: the tine being made from a tube is flexible enough to allow the point to trip 10 cm back before the bolt is breaking. In that way the Vibromat is is avoiding too frequent breakage even being only shearbolted

This short tine can still go 14cm sideways around obstacles, reporting less stress to the tine holder and frame

Shearbolt and Leaf spring pack can be combined, so that the spring pack will get 2T pressure also before releasing, interesting in very heavy soils to keep the tines in and avoiding the driver to change the bolt immediately.
