Amazone ploughs with VSS packer

Share this item

Amazone is starting a collaboration with VSS Machinebouw from the Netherlands. VSS has been known as a specialized manufacturer of packers and rollers under its brand name VSS Agro. The furrow packer will complement the Amazone plough range in this segment.

The mounting kit of the integrated VSS Agro furrow press packer system, with its different levels of equipment, is compatible with both the Teres 300 and Teres 300 V models, if not fitted with hydraulic overload protection. The packer also fits to the Cayros XMS with 3 or 4 furrows, likewise without hydraulic overload protection.

The furrow press packer runs parallel to the plough and automatically adapts to the working width, preventing the repeat reconsolidation of part areas. This ensures uniform reconsolidation, even when there are changes in the working width. Furthermore, the furrow press can be used from the very first furrow on the field. Even ploughing close to the field side on the headland is not a problem with the integrated packer system.

VSS Machinebouw offers packer rings in different sizes. The rings with a diameter of 710 mm in combination with the Amazone plough enable effective reconsolidation, especially on heavy ground. The pressure on the packer can either be adjusted mechanically using stop screws or hydraulically.

The fixed connection to the plough offers considerable time saving during transport between the yard and field, as the packer does not need to be transported separately. The packer is finished in Amazone livery.

Amazone continues to offer trailed packers from Tigges in its product programme.
