Double L - Potato Planter
There are a lot of considerations to make when picking a planter. Price, performance, and reliability, are likely at the top of your list. Several manufacturers are vying for your business. Double L`s case for its planter line is straightforward: Our planters stack up well against our competitors` in performance. We crush them in price and reliability.
Our competitors will try to convince you that accuracy and reliability come only by adding complexity to your equipment. Double L`s planter is proof positive that this is simply not true. Complexity adds to the upfront cost of the equipment, and it introduces extra critical points of failure that can be costly and time consuming to resolve.
Planting sets the tone for the rest of the growing season. Set the right tone with Double L`s line of potato planters. Available in 4-, 6-, and 8-row models, the Double L planter is a rock-solid, cost-effective machine.
LOW MAINTENANCE DESIGN
The hopper bowl is designed with nearly no moving parts. Few parts translates into low service costs and less downtime for part failures. As long as gravity works, so will the hopper bowl.
HIGH-CAPACITY BOWL
The enormous hopper on Double L`s planter line can make quicker work of a huge task. It minimizes how frequently the planter has to stop to be refilled. Fill the hopper and plant for acres without worry.
SEED FLOW COMPONENTS
Seed bridging is a concern of farmers for gravity-fed hopper bowls. Double L mitigates blockages with stainless steel gables flanking each planter leg. Their shape removes any flat surfaces on which seed pieces may get caught. Situated above the leg is a round bar support that acts much like a turkey roost inside an even flow tub. It bears some of the weight of the seed and helps it to flow more freely into the planter leg.
SUPER AXLE
The Super Axle is the first of its kind to support the weight of a fully loaded planter on only two tires. A two-tire axle design solves the problem of tire scraping around turns. The machine can turn sharper, and tires and hubs and last longer. It also opens the possibility for towing tillage equipment behind the planter.
