Consider the history of seeding: For decades, double disc box drills dominated the market. In The first new drill technology in 20 years the 1980s, air delivery with shank openers changed the market. Amity Single Disc Drills are uniquely simple, easy to operate and maintain. The Single Disc Drill story First invented and patented in Australia, the team at Amity (the same group who Ten years later, it was single disc created and marketed the revolutionary Concord Air Till Drill) saw the potential drills with air delivery. In 2008, of the Single Disc Drill. Amity bought it and brought the implement...

Field proven for no-till and conventional tillage No-till, minimum till or conventional till: The Amity Single Disc Drill has been customer-proven The Amity Single Disc Drill works equally in a variety of soil, residue and moisture conditions in well in all three conditions. Down pressure adjustment on the openers North America, Australia, Ukraine and other locations, where growers report this is the drill of choice for consistent seeding. from the tractor cab eliminates the need for opener adjustments. The primary disadvantages of no-till with other single disc designs—hair pinning and side...

Amity Single Disc Drills reduce hair pinning, eliminate sidewall compaction The Amity Single Disc Drill does not have a gauge wheel running next to the disc. This allows the soil to lift and flow back against the packer to be re-leveled over the seed furrow. Competitive drills’ gauge wheels run next to their discs, firmly holding residue and soil in place. If the residue is not cut, it is tucked into the seed furrow. Even when seeding into very wet, humid residue, Amity Single Disc Drill operators have not reported tucking as a problem. They also haven’t had to wait for residue to dry. The discs...

Depth control adjustment Right away, you’ll notice details that make the Single Disc Drill easier to operate and maintain, including: ■ No springs on seed openers On-the-go down pressure adjustment The down pressure is precisely maintained by a hydraulic cylinder on each tool bar. The pressure is constant throughout the entire range of cylinder travel. Pressure on the cylinders is controlled by the operator on-the-go. A pressure display on the down pressure control box allows the operator to monitor down force on the toolbars. Single point down pressure control Precise down pressure One rank...

The Amity Air Till Drill offers one pass seeding and exceptional small grain yield potential. Ribbon-seeded bands and multiple fertilizer placement options offer small grain yields that other seeding systems just can’t match. The seed ribbon system with packed rows makes seed bed utilization the highest in the industry. Plant response is a much stronger stem, superior roots and maximum yields. Through years of seeding trials, the Concord (predecessor to the Amity Air Till Drill) proved over and over again this key to maximum production. Depending on your choice of seed openers, fertilizer can...

Air Till Drill Shanks are optimally placed on the Air Till Drill for maximum residue clearance. There are no clog points where shank placement is compromised to fit the drill frame. Optional coulters are available to allow operation in extreme residue conditions such as corn or sunflower stalks. Optional disc levelers on the shanks will eliminate stepping (rear ranks covering front ranks to make a stepped field finish). The result is a smooth field finish regardless of field speed, allowing more acres seeded with no compromise to field finish. Air Till Drill Specifications: Model Tires/Main frame/Front...
