Knuckeys’ two latest released products, the Air Seeder and Precision Sowing System, have received wide-spread attention from farmers across Australia, as well as globally. The Knuckey Precision Sowing System earned the title of The Australian Agricultural Machine of the Year at the 2019 Elmore Machinery Field Days.
The Knuckey Southern Seeder Accu Sow is engineered to enhance farming efficiency with its adaptable and robust design. It features various widths and tine layouts, allowing customisation to meet specific farming needs. The seeder’s low transport height facilitates easy travel and storage.
Despite its sturdy build, it maintains a compact transport width of 5.4 metres, which can be reduced to approximately 4.7 metres for effortless transport. The frame is designed with six rungs to optimise trash flow, ensuring unimpeded operation in heavy stubble loads. Durability is boosted with a high capacity ten stud hub and stub axle systems, and strategically placed wheels outside the toolbar to maximise trash flow.
The MAW2 Sowing System represents the pinnacle of over 25 years of dedicated experience in designing advanced sowing systems. Unique to the MAW2 is the increased spacing between the primary tyne and the sowing tyne, a design innovation that allows the soil to settle adequately before seeds are deposited at the desired depth. This spacing is particularly beneficial in fields with heavy trash loads, as it eliminates the pinch points that often occur in other systems where these components are closer together.
The system features a hydraulic primary tyne with adjustable breakout force, and seed placement precision is maintained by a large 450mm diameter press wheel. Additionally, adjustments to front tyne depth, packing pressure, and seed depth can be easily made to meet specific agricultural needs, enhancing both versatility and efficiency in planting operations.
The Knuckey RP2 Sowing System is designed for seamless integration with both new and existing bars, enhancing precision seeding capabilities. This system ensures precise control over seed depth and effective soil compaction around the seed, which are critical for optimal germination. It uniquely allows for the separate placement of fertiliser and seed, enhancing nutrient uptake without compromising seed development. The system features a single-pin height adjuster for quick and straightforward modifications to the sowing height, streamlining the adjustment process during planting. Additionally, the assembly is mounted independently from the primary tyne, which minimises the impact of tyne chattering and breakout on seed placement and extends the assembly’s lifespan. Its design also ensures flawless adaptation to the contours of the seedbed, maintaining consistent seeding depth across uneven terrain.
The Knuckey Tandem Press Wheel Assemblies are expertly crafted for use with Air Seeders, Combines, and Power Harrows, enhancing seed-soil contact to boost germination rates. These assemblies are mounted directly at the rear of the machine, featuring an extra-long walking beam that ensures superior ground-following capabilities. This design allows for consistent and even pressure on the soil across varying terrains, promoting uniform seed germination and optimal growth conditions.
Our Heavy Duty Coulter Assemblies are versatile, designed to fit most brands of toolbars, and are ideal for allowing trouble-free sowing in areas with heavy trash loads. These robust assemblies are built for durability and low maintenance, featuring steering capabilities, individual assembly breakout, and adjustable heavy-duty spring-down pressure. They also offer manual engage and disengage settings, maintenance-free hubs, and a variety of disc profiles, ensuring efficient operation and long-term reliability in demanding agricultural conditions.
We offer a wide range of seeding equipment designed to meet various agricultural needs, including:
Our product line also features advanced components like Heavy Duty Coulter Assemblies and Tandem Press Wheel Assemblies, each tailored to optimise planting efficiency and adaptability across different terrains and conditions.
Our seeding machinery stands out due to its robust design tailored for Australian agricultural conditions and its innovative features. These include superior trash management, customisable row widths, and compact transport dimensions. Additionally, unique aspects like increased spacing between tynes for better soil settlement and independent mounting systems to reduce the impact of tyne chattering distinguish our equipment. These features ensure higher efficiency, better yield, and reduced maintenance costs, setting our products apart in the market.
