I been running a Bredal F3200 for eight years now and like it for its simplicity. If I was to change I would considering the Rauch Axis. Havent heard a bad report about them yet, and a strong backup, but then I live in Denmark so it could be different for you.

Sounds like you’ve already demo’d the best, anything else will be a come down?

What about amazone ts.
When i was demoed kverneland it doesnt showed me which of the sides is empty. Because i am spreading with one side shut borders

If the 1st alarm goes off it mean it’s time to look through the back window, you can see through the inspection windows if one side is nearly empty.

I could but I’d just confuse you! I’m better at driving the office! Richard German will. He has 30 years experience!

The kv/ vicon is the best spreader on the market lots of threads on here with opinions n the majority will tell you kv is the spreader to have.

I bought a sulky x40 econov this spring. My first as we’ve always been liquid untill this year.
i like it a lot. Took 20 min of setup and instructions with the dealer and off we went.
it has sensor for low level in both sides and i’m amazed at how accurate the weight is. Usually within 5 kg of what we want in a field. It has sectioncontrol and we use variable rate from maps with it. I had the screen and gps setup already and it works easy on isobus.
It also do 2 levels of border spreading, depending on if any can go out or not.
i don’t have anything to compare it with, but i would buy it again.

just wonder if that double screen is much of advantage over a smaller one? Guess you just do not see that much info at once and no touch screen. There are already too many screens in my tractor's cab, so didn't want to make it much more crowded and went for the smaller one. it is also much cheaper..

Only real advantage is you can use the guidance and see the spreader is doing what it should be at the same time.
It’s worth keeping an eye on the “actual” application rate as you can go to fast or slow (usually to fast though) depending on how you have it set, it’s mainly when your applying over 350-400kg/ha though.

Our tractors are non isobus, nothing fancy. so theyr the only screen we have in them other than the datatronics. Having one big screen is much nicer than having two which would have been the case with Kuhn, and others at the time. I’m not sure what they all do now but the gps and section control works very well. Handy to run the gps on other things too even when the spreader isn’t on. The light bar is a must is your in grassland. Which is mainly what we do.

Mine is also non isobus. But you can't use tellus screen on other makes, can you? I have got trimble screen with ez pilot, so guidance is not an issue.

What about curve sectional control which claims sulky. Is it better than kverneland. I am going to use it with pro 700 intellivew 4 isobus tc.

 

[Robt]

The Sulky Econov manages the 12 sections in a true curve pattern unlike others that manage it in a straight line like a sprayer boom. The product doesn’t land on the field in a straight line so why manage it like that! It’s a sulky patent.
That’s enough selling from me!
