Lemken plans to debut its next generation speed disc cultivator, the Rubin 10, in 2024.
Last fall, the company announced plans to introduce a new Rubin 10 series to replace the Rubin 9 series. The main feature of the new machine is that it can be coupled via a ball coupling or drawbar eye. It also has hydraulic support and is easy to put on and take off.
“This time, instead of a carrier system, we’re using one machine that basically holds the entire Rubin system,” said Mathieu Vallieres, managing director of Lemken Canada. The report agritechnica, Commenting on the features of the Rubin 10, Valliere said the machine has a working width of 10 meters and all new models in the 7-10 meter range feature symmetrical discs for fuel-efficient operation without side drafts. I mentioned that it is characterized by its placement.
The company says the two rows of serrated concave discs allow it to completely ingest the entire surface width from a soil depth of just 7 centimeters. The 14 cm line spacing ensures blockage-free operation even with large amounts of organic matter.
The working section of the Rubin 10 features pendulum suspension for optimal following of the field contours. When working on uneven terrain or slopes, the optional iQ-Contour pendulum compensation ensures optimal surface adaptation.
The tiller’s hydraulic depth adjustment allows you to adapt to changing conditions and change the working depth while driving. Vallière says the machine is especially suited for fall tillage in dry conditions. They perform best at depths of 4 to 7 inches and have a recommended travel speed range of 16 to 14 miles per hour.
