Technical Description
The bed former is composed of:
- a cutter shaft with blades that turns in the same direction as the moving tractor
- a rear rake with teeth that turns in the opposite direction
The front rotor (cutter shaft) pulverizes the soil without smoothing out the bottom thanks to the shallow incline of the blades.
The rear rotor (rake) breaks up the clods, rakes off, levels and caps the soil. All SIMON rakes are equipped with a control mechanism (Patent) to prevent the tray from collapsing in the center.
Advantages

- Underneath, progressively small, then medium and finally big clods
