DOWNFLOWER

TD SERIES

TD double-bladed grass traps are designed to achieve optimal utilization of the manure’s fertilizer value in grass or other crops and in heavier or dry soil types. The fall arrester is available in two widths, 8 or 12 meters. The two models are called TD8 and TD12 respectively.

The TD grass catcher is built in sections, which together with the depth control ensures a uniform working depth when the slurry is placed in grooves at the roots of the crop. The sections are 1 meter wide. There are 8 or 12 individual cutting sections, each mounted on the main frame with a pivoting point for more flexibility when cornering. Each section has 6 custom-made double blades with minimal maintenance. The blades are fully hardened and the fall arrester has a relatively low weight of 2,650 and 3,400 kg due to the high quality and high strength materials chosen.

TD SERIES

Grass traps

The TD Series offers gentle and efficient grass cutting with even and uniform treatment, preserving the nutritional value and quality of the grass. Adjustable height and intensity settings ensure optimal grass utilization and reduce waste.

With their durable construction and quality materials, both the TD 8 and TD 12 grass cutters guarantee long life and reliable performance in even the toughest farming conditions, while being easy to operate and maintain, saving time and resources.

The TD 12 grass cutter is particularly suitable for farmers who need high capacity and efficiency as it can handle large amounts of grass with ease. The advanced construction ensures gentle treatment of the grass, resulting in healthier and more nutritious grass for animal feed or other purposes.

Key Features

DRYPSTOP

Our specially designed drip-stop effectively prevents slurry spillage while also facilitating access for cleaning in case of potential blockages.

FLEXIBLE WHEN CORNERING

The TD grass injector is built in sections, each mounted on the main frame with a pivot point, making the injector more flexible during cornering.

TRANSPORT WIDTH

Both TD8 and TD12 have a transport width of 2.9 meters.

VERTICAL DISTRIBUTOR WITH CUP CUTTER

The injector is equipped with SAMSON’s well-known vertical distributors with cup cutters for shredding various material residues, ensuring high dosing accuracy. Here’s the distributor on the TD8.

BASIC CONSTRUCTION AND EQUIPMENT

Long lifetime

The double roller blades have a self-sharpening construction. It provides a longer lifespan

Heavy-duty special hubs with double bearings last a long time

Shims between hub and blades can be removed as the blades wear out. Extends the lifetime of the blades

Lightweight compared to other similar precipitators

Selecting central lubrication ensures optimal lubrication. It provides a longer lifespan

High efficiency

The double roller blades enable flexible depth control and create a "suction effect" as they make a groove for the slurry at the roots of the grass. Precipitation reduces the evaporation of nutrients in the slurry and increases nutrient utilization

The double roller coulters can also handle heavy soil types

By choosing a hydraulic spade valve for the stone trap, it can be emptied without the operator having to leave the tractor. It saves time

When selecting autolock for spade valve (hydraulic), the spade valve always closes again. This eliminates the risk of misoperation, so slurry runs out of the spade valve during operation

Optimal slurry application - optimal yield

The individual cutting sections, developed in collaboration with Aarhus University, Foulum Research Center, ensure flexibility when cornering. Each section follows the contours of the ground, even at high speed. Uniform deposition occurs even when cornering and on uneven terrain

Cutting pressure per section via closed hydraulic system. There is a precise placement of the slurry in the soil. Better utilization of the slurry and less risk of slurry being placed on top of plants

By choosing hydraulic depth control (and the SAMSON AGRO SlurryMaster 6000 control computer), slurry can be precisely placed in grooves, even in varying soil conditions. It increases the utilization of the slurry

Hydraulic weight transfer, max. 5,000 kg. The fall arrester is provided with enough weight to penetrate the ground, even if the soil is hard, dry and heavy. This extends the precipitation season. This results in better utilization of the fall arrester. The workspace is expanding

Drip stop prevents overdosing on forager and messes on the road

Low maintenance costs

The double roller cutters are self-sharpening

Heavy-duty special hubs withstand working in harsh environments for minimal maintenance

Shims extend the lifetime of the coulters as they can be driven on several hectares before they need to be replaced

Precipitators for efficient use of nature's nutrients

SAMSON is a leader in the production of traps designed to optimize application efficiency and maximize the utilization of nature’s own nutrients.

We offer a comprehensive range of harvesting machines, attachments and technologies, all tailored to meet the needs of the agricultural industry.

Our goal is to provide innovative and environmentally friendly solutions for efficient manure deposition, where every step of the process is carefully considered. With our traps, farmers can make optimal use of resources while contributing to sustainable farming practices.
