Key Features

SPREADMASTER 6500

SpreadMaster 6500 control adjusts the bottom chain speed proportionally with the spreader’s driving speed. This ensures a more precise material dosing. All essential functions are displayed and can be operated from the home screen on the included 4.3″ touchscreen. The control system can also run load sensing.

VOLUMETRIC DOSING As an option, the control system can be upgraded to perform volumetric dosing. With volumetric dosing, the bottom chain speed is adjusted based on both the dosing gate height, driving speed, and the set dosing per hectare. This provides very accurate dosing, especially with homogeneous, high-value materials such as poultry manure, compost, or lime.

JOBS CAN BE EXPORTED SpreadMaster 6500 tracks area, time, loads, and theoretical weight of the material spread. The information can be exported to a USB key or an SD card as screen dumps.

12 METER SPREADING EQUIPMENT

A versatile spreading equipment for all types of material. Built with two vertical rollers and flail-mounted ejectors. The 12-meter equipment can handle quantities from 4 t/ha up to 70 t/ha. The 12-meter spreading equipment is equipped with SAMSON’s own gearbox, which is known for being very robust and reliable.

24 METER SPREADING EQUIPMENT

This is a wide spreading equipment with horizontal rollers and a spreading table with two rotating ejectors. This equipment is especially suitable for handling light/fine natural fertilizers and industrial spreadable waste from 3 t/ha up to 50 t/ha.

The 24-meter spreading equipment also, of course, produces a fine spread pattern with layered deep litter. Additionally, the spreading equipment has a very high capacity even with heavier materials.

UNIQUE BOTTOM BRACKET DESIGN

The material in the spreader is pulled forward to the spreading equipment using two sets of double Rübig flat chains mounted with L-shaped carriers. The Rübig chains have high tensile strength and are extremely wear-resistant, with an impressively long lifespan and low maintenance costs. The carriers cover 95 percent of the bottom of the spreader. The bottom chains are driven by a powerful gear motor that can operate in both directions. The chain is always tensioned relative to the weight loaded in the box, which also results in longer durability and lower maintenance costs.

HYDRAULIC BOTTOM CHAIN DRIVE

A more robust standard bottom chain gear with a larger oil motor has been selected. For both the 12 and 24-meter spreading equipment, the motor is 160 ccm.

Additionally, a two-speed gearbox can now be selected as an optional extra for the spreader.

24 M GEARBOKS

New and more powerful spreader gearbox on the 24-meter spreading equipment. It is equipped with SAMSON AGRO’s patented knife function, which cuts through straw and other foreign objects.

HYDRAULIC GALVANIZED DOSING SHUTTER

The spreader can be equipped with a hydraulic galvanized dosing gate that prevents spillage from the spreader during transport.

YDRAULIC SPREADING LIMITER

A new hydraulic spread limiter can be selected for the 24-meter spreading equipment, for the left side, right side, or both sides.

The spread limiter ensures an even spreading pattern right to the edge of the field.

SPREADMASTER 6500

The SpreadMaster 6500 control system adjusts the conveyor chain speed proportionally to the spreader’s driving speed. This ensures more precise material dosing. All important functions are displayed and can be operated from the home screen on the included 4.3″ touchscreen. The control system is also capable of load sensing.

VOLUMETRIC DOSING The control system can optionally be upgraded to perform volumetric dosing. With volumetric dosing, the conveyor chain speed is adjusted in relation to both the dosing gate height, the driving speed, and the set dosage per hectare. This provides highly accurate dosing, especially for homogeneous, high-value materials such as poultry manure, compost, or lime.

JOBS CAN BE EXPORTED The SpreadMaster 6500 tracks area, time, loads, and the theoretical weight of the material spread. The information can be exported to a USB stick or an SD card as screen dumps.

SPREADMASTER 8500

The SpreadMaster 8500 control system can manage the entire machine and can be operated both with buttons and via the touchscreen. The SpreadMaster 8500 can handle weighing and dose the spreading amount based on the actual weight in the hopper – that is, dynamic weighing, where weighing is done during spreading.

Field maps/dosing maps can be uploaded to the control system, allowing for dosing based on these maps. This can be used, for example, for spreading lime based on soil samples or spreading poultry manure based on nitrogen application maps.

The SpreadMaster 8500 can also handle a simpler weighing system, where a given amount spread is weighed during a standstill to calibrate the volumetric system – a static weighing.

The SpreadMaster 8500 is ISOBUS compatible, meaning the control system can be operated via the tractor’s terminal if it is also ISOBUS compatible.

AXLES AND BRAKES

The FLEX II is equipped with a robust 16-ton axle, either bolted or with a spring suspension for higher driving comfort.

The FLEX II can be fitted with hydraulic, air, or combination brakes, ensuring compliance with brake regulations in all markets.

CENTRAL LUBRICATION

The FLEX II can be factory-equipped with a central lubrication system from German manufacturer Beka. The system features a Beka Pico pump with a 1.5-liter reservoir. SAMSON is the only spreader manufacturer offering this pump with agitation in the reservoir. The pump also has a durable aluminum pump housing, while the distributors and fittings are made with a special alloy for extended lifespan. The central lubrication ensures that all lubrication points are frequently and adequately lubricated. This provides optimal lubrication, reduces maintenance, extends the machine’s durability, and increases resale value.

FLEX II SERIES

BASIC CONSTRUCTION AND EQUIPMENT

Long lifetime

Box and rollers are made of Domex 600 high tensile steel.

The traction triangle is suspended with maintenance-free shock absorbers.

Each spike on the rollers is made of hardened special steel.

Many SAMSON AGRO spreaders have been running for over 20 years.

The FLEX II spreader is fully welded. There is no spot welding.

4 high-strength bottom chains from Rübig mean less wear on each chain. The tensile strength of each bottom chain is 12.5 tons.

The chain for the rollers on the 24 meter spreader is placed in a closed chain gearbox with oil.

Shock absorption occurs between the rollers and gearbox.

High efficiency

The position and angle of the spreading rollers, the speed of rotation of the spreading rollers (534 rpm), the size of the blades, revolutions and position of the ejectors on the spreading table ensure that the machine can spread the material very quickly. This means more daily loads per machine.

The very low construction ensures a low center of gravity, low loading height and high stability of the machine. This makes it possible to drive faster on roads and in fields. It also means more daily loads per machine.

Optimal nutrient utilization - optimal yield

The design of the spreader and shredder section ensures that the material is pulverized and spread evenly/homogeneously.

It is possible to choose between 12m and 24m spreading equipment depending on the material to be spread. If you mainly spread heavy materials, such as deep litter, you should choose a 12m spreader. If it's mainly lighter materials, such as compost and chicken manure, you should choose 24 m spreading equipment.

Low energy consumption (diesel)

The body is made of Domex 600 steel, which reduces the total weight of the trailer, so the tractor needs less horsepower.

The box is made as a self-supporting construction, eliminating the need for an underlying chassis and reducing the weight of the machine.

The wheels are placed on the side of the machine, ensuring a large diameter and therefore less rolling resistance on the wheels, so the tractor needs less horsepower.
