New: the Güttler precision point

Kirchheim unter Teck,

Press release from GÜTTLER GmbH

In addition to the forged point already introduced, Güttler is now offering the new 200 mm wide precision points. These points were developed by Güttler and are the first to feature the beaver-tooth effect and a self-sharpening tungsten carbide edge.

Thanks to this special edge, an open-pored cut is achieved even in moist soils. Smearing is avoided, which improves gas exchange. The new Güttler precision points last 8 times longer, stay sharp until the very last use and reduce the draught requirement.

Sharp cutting and less wear

With the 13 cm tine spacing of the Güttler Super Maxx BIO and Super Maxx Culti spring-tine cultivators with double spring tines, the new 200 mm precision points achieve an even better overlap. They cut better and stay sharp until the end of their service life. The cutting width remains constant to the end. They also do a very good job in moist working conditions, because the open-pored cut prevents possible smearing and does not hinder gas exchange. As a result, the emergence of volunteer cereals, volunteer oilseed rape and weed seeds and their growth are not impaired. This mechanical weed control is becoming increasingly important as the use of herbicides is restricted further.

Preventing smearing

The lower-lying point tips penetrate the soil more easily, better and more reliably. The innovative edge reduces draught requirement and diesel consumption and improves the economics of this cultivation. Undercutting is minimal and allows an even working depth. The precision points are also ideally suited to ultra-shallow cultivation. Working with Güttler Super Maxx spring-tine cultivators directly after harvest helps to keep water in the soil, because the full-width cut interrupts the capillary action of the rising soil water across the entire working width. Together with the double springs of the Super Maxx tines, the result is even better, because the stronger vibration of the tines breaks the soil aggregates better while the crumb structure is preserved. This protects against erosion.

Keeping water in the soil

Before launching these new precision points, Güttler carried out extensive trials to find the best tungsten carbide point for the Super Maxx BIO and Super Maxx Culti ranges. These points were convincing and have therefore been added to the range. The new precision points can be ordered from Güttler with immediate effect.

All year round

The Güttler Super Maxx spring-tine cultivators are used all year round: for stubble cultivation and the following operations up to seedbed preparation; for incorporating catch crops, including winter-hardy species, within the statutory deadlines; and at the start of spring, when the soil needs to dry out faster. The Super Maxx spring-tine cultivators are ideally suited to all of this.
