Features
It is a tractor-operated implement and consists of share point, share, mould
board, landslide, frog, shank, frame and three point hitch system. The share
point is of bar type and is made from high carbon steel or low alloy steel.
The share is also made from high carbon steel or low alloy steel. Both are
hardened and tempered to suitable hardness (about 45 ARC). The working of
the plough is controlled by hydraulic system lever and three-point linkage.
Its bar point makes it suitable to break hardpan of the soil.
|
Uses:
It is used for primary tillage operations. It cuts trash and buries it
completely into the soil. It is also used for turning green manure
crop for decaying under the soil, which adds humus to the soil. It
is also used for turning and mixing compost, farmyard manure or lime
into the soil.

4.2 REVERSIBLE TWO BOTTOM M.B PLOUGH |
|
Features
The two bottom reversible plough is a unique implement, which is
directly mounted to the tractor. This is a hydraulically /mechanically
operated basic implement for preparation of land. It is very useful for
primary tillage in hard and dry trashy land. The Mould Board retains
their mirror finish at all time contributing to well turned furrows.
The plough has special wear resistant steel bottoms with bar points for
toughest ploughing jobs. Bar point bottom ensures longer life as it can
be extended or reversed. The m.b. bottom reversing mechanism is
operated by a lever provided on the distributor. When the implement is
hitched, plough bottom is free to rotate 180 degree along the axis of
the hollow shaft.

4.3 DISC PLOUGH |
|
Features
The
plough consists of common mainframe, disc beam assemblies, rockshaft
category –l or category -2, a heavy spring loaded furrow wheel and a
gauge wheel. In some models disc plough is designed to operate as 2, 3
or 4 bottom, by adding or removing the sub-beam assemblies according to
requirement. The disc angle ranges from 40 to 450 to obtain
the desired width of cut and the tilt angle ranges from 15 to 250
for penetration. The discs of the plough are made of high carbon steel
or alloy steel and the edges are hardened and sharpened. The discs are
mounted on tapered roller bearings. Scrapers prevent soil build up on
the discs in sticky soils. The furrow slice rides along the curvature
and is pulverized to some extent before being thrown.

TYNE TYPE CULTIVATOR
|
|
|
Features
Cultivator consists of a frame, tynes fixed with reversible shovels,
3-pont hitch system and heavy-duty springs. These cultivators may or
may not be fitted with springs. The function of springs is to save
the cultivator tynes from breaking when some hard object comes in
contact with the shovel or under the tyne. The shovels are made of
heat-treated steel for longer life. The implement is mounted type
and is controlled by the hydraulic system of the tractor.

4.5 DISC HARROW
|
|
|
Features:
The tractor mounted disc harrow consists of two gangs of discs
mounted one behind the other. The discs on the front gang throw
soil outward and the rear gang inward. Therefore, no soil
remains uncut by the offset disc harrow. The harrow consists of
a sturdy frame, discs arranged in two gangs, and three-point
linkage. Discs are important component of the harrow and are
made from high carbon steel or alloy steel; the cutting edges
are hardened and tempered to suitable hardness. The gangs can be
moved in either direction on the hitch frame. The rear gang can
be moved the same amount as the front gang. When operating in
orchards or plantations, the harrow can be offset to the right
or left, thus enabling soil to be thrown towards or away from
the trees and makes it possible to work under low–hanging
branches. Discs with notes on the outer rim are also available
for operation in weed-infested fields. Three point hydraulic
linkage and hydraulic control makes it highly maneuverable.

4.6 DUCKFOOT CULTIVATOR
|
|
Features
The duckfoot cultivator consists of a box type steel
rectangular frame, rigid tines and sweeps. The sweeps
are triangular in shape similar to foot of duck, hence
called duckfoot cultivator. The sweeps are made from old
leaf spring steel and fixed to tines with fasteners,
which makes them replaceable after being worn out or
becoming dull. The tines are made of mild steel flat and
forged to shape. It is a tractor-mounted implement and
depth of operation is controlled by hydraulic system.
The sweep cultivator is popular in black cotton soils.
This cultivator is mostly used in hard soils for
shallow ploughing.

4.8 ROTAVATOR
|
|
Features
It consists of a steel frame with three point
hitch system, a rotary shaft on which blades are
mounted, power transmission system, and gearbox.
The blades are of L-shape, made from medium
carbon steel or alloy steel, hardened and
tempered to suitable hardness. The PTO of
tractor drives the rotavator. Rotary motion of
the PTO is transmitted to the shaft carrying the
blades through gearbox and transmission system.
A good seedbed and pulverization of the soil is
achieved in a single pass of the rotavator. The
power requirement will vary depending upon the
width of the rotavator.

PULVERISING ROLLER
|
|
Features
Pulverizing roller is an attachment to a
commercially available cultivator. The
pulverizing roller consists of star wheels,
central shaft, pulverizing members, mounting
link and depth controlling wheel. The
pulverizing members are similar in shape to
lawn mower blades and are inserted in the
cast star wheels in such a way that it forms
helical shape and progressively come in
contact with soil and breaks it. The roller
is attached to the cultivator with the help
of two mounting links having bearing housing
on one side and tensile springs on other
side.
