The Einböck Aerostar harrow

Einböck Aerostar tine harrows offer working widths from 1,5 to 24 meters.
They are fitted with 40 tines per meter of working width. The tine spacing is 2,5 cm.
The density of the tines, fixed to the frame by plastic-coated supports of more than 28 mm, and the high forward speed are said to promote a vibrating effect, creating a layer of fine soil and bringing uprooted weeds to the surface.
The Einböck Aerostar is built on a hydraulically folding frame. According to the company, top-quality materials and its robust design guarantee its longevity and, in difficult conditions, the ability to transfer load through the 3ème point on the frame.
Depending on its working width, the Aerostar is equipped with 2 to 4 gauge wheels. Soil covering is said to be precise and even across the entire working width. The tine angle can be adjusted to 5 positions with a simple lever.
In the semi-mounted version, the Einböck Aerostar has a robust profiled steel frame.
Designed on the half-timbered principle, this frame has a wide triangulation that is said to prevent longitudinal oscillations of the weeder.
The sections of Einböck semi-mounted weeders are suspended by 8 cylindrical guides on a pendulum frame with hydraulic level compensation.
These pendulum frames are said to ensure perfect adaptation of the sections to the contours of the ground. Using a solenoid valve, all hydraulic functions can be controlled from the driver's seat.
According to Einböck, good mechanical weeding eliminates 70% of weeds. The remaining 30% would only moderately interfere with the crop in place. Of the 70% eliminated, 70% are destroyed at the germination stage and only 30% are removed by uprooting. The timing of weeding must therefore be chosen carefully.
