The SAMSON SD II has been optimized in several areas, becoming lighter and more fuel-efficient, yet retaining the same features as the previous generation:

Optimal depth control with reinforced fasteners

Robust self-cleaning roller for difficult conditions

High-wear-resistant discs as standard

Edge disc with multiple adjustment options ensures high soil cultivation quality between each track

Optimized attack angles for the mono-mounted discs ensure better fuel economy and improved performance under difficult conditions

The weight of the SD II injector has been reduced and the center of gravity moved forward, ensuring better weight distribution and higher comfort.

In collaboration with Aarhus University, a unique angling and weight transfer on the discs have been developed, ensuring optimal ability to work in the soil, even under dry conditions.

The hydraulics of the SD II injector facilitate a quick transition between working position and transport position, resulting in increased capacity. There is a hydraulic damping function on the hydraulic cylinders, ensuring smooth and balanced movements.

There is also an integrated overload function that allows the side wings to deviate when passing over large obstacles or hitting large stones, for example. If one of the side wings deviates, it will automatically return to its original position after passing the obstacle. This protects the injector and extends its lifespan.

Unlike other similar disc injectors, the SD II injector has mono-mounted discs with integrated slurry nozzles. This provides the best material flow through the machine, reduces shock loads on the discs and bearings, and ensures that the slurry nozzle always follows the disc’s movements, resulting in optimal injection at all times.

Lifetime lubricated bearings that do not require daily maintenance, minimizing maintenance costs.

The serrated discs with a diameter of 510 mm work aggressively and are soil-seeking even under difficult conditions. The design of the disc allows for the incorporation of large amounts of plant material during slurry application without any issues. Since slurry application and soil cultivation can be done in one pass, it allows for reducing the number of field crossings and thus reducing operating costs.

Each disc is individually suspended on the frame via elastic rubber elements. This allows for maximum adaptation to the soil surface, as each disc can follow the contour. This ensures that tracks and other depressions are also processed. An uneven soil surface will be uniformly processed. The elastic rubber elements on each disc suspension not only ensure optimal adaptation to the soil contour but also act as overload protection when driving in rocky soil. The large working range of the rubber elements allows the disc to deviate upon contact with large stones. The fact that the discs are individually suspended without a through axle also allows for large amounts of plant material to pass through the machine.

The SD II disc injector is equipped with a pipe roller with a diameter of 550 mm. The roller’s diameter provides effective soil compaction and ensures maximum load-bearing capacity. The packer roller controls the working depth. A strong roller with good load-bearing capacity provides precise control of the working depth and can handle difficult soil conditions with many stones. The working depth can be adjusted from 3 to 12 cm.

In the context of slurry injection, the spike packer roller is often preferred as the risk of building up a “wave of soil” in front of the roller is minimal.
