Cross - 8.2 Meter Ring Roller
The Cross Ring Roller Range is manufactured in widths from 3 meters to 12.2 meters. All Cross Rollers are fitted with custom manufactured steel rings as standard. Cast iron rings can be fitted also upon request. EN24T shafts are also fitted as standard. Cross Rollers are now fitted with 60mm bearings as standard. All Cross Rollers can be fitted with a selection of various tine tool bars. Cultivation tines and leveling paddles are the most popular choice. All Tines and paddles are individually hydraulically adjustable.
The Cross Ring Roller Range is the most popular in the range. Built and tested in Ireland this roller has proven to be one of the most durable on the market. The Steel rings allow the operator to roll with no fear of ring breakage. The tine bar and/or leveling bar combination converts a standard roller into a multi use tool:
-
Tilling, Leveling and Rolling After Ploughing (in one pass)
-
Fold tines and paddles away & Roll after sowing
For optimum soil conditioning
During ploughing the soil is loosened to allow air and warmth into the soil. It is important that the soils do not dry out too much as this would impact the natural capillary action that provides a flow of nourishment to the germinating seedling.
Using a ring roller, depending on the soil conditions and tillage programme, can speed up the re-activation of the capillary process, encouraging the re-establishment of microbic action in the soil growth layer.
The Cross range of Ring Rollers Presses can provide an excellent opportunity to give the soil back its structure in advance of seeding. It will allow the creation of an optimal soil moisture level, with smaller soil clod sizes, below the surface and at the depth where the seed germination and emergence takes place.
Using the Cross Ring Roller will ensure the following:
-
Field working passes are kept to a minimum
-
Excess soil drying out is prevented
-
Soil clod sizes are reduced
-
Soil structure is enhanced
-
Environment for soil microbes is enhanced
