2024 Kuhn Axis® 40.2 H-EMC-W

KUHN Axis® H-EMC-W .2 Series fertilizer spreaders offer a unique combination of innovative technologies to meet the desires of today’s farmers.

The KUHN Axis® H-EMC-W .2 Series sets the industry standard in precision broadcast fertilizer spreading. These fertilizer spreaders come with a variety of options to meet the needs of a wide range of producers up to large row crop or commercial operations. The Axis 40.2 and 50.2 fertilizer spreader models offer the most precise rate control in the industry, thanks to exclusive EMC technology. Triangular spread patterns create wide working widths and precise material placement, even in breezier conditions. Vari-Spread Pro, Opti-Point and border control combine to significantly reduce over-application to save input costs. ISOBUS software is simple to set up and the machine can be run with any terminal that meets the appropriate industry standards. All this adds up to an outstanding return on investment for you, the producer.

Features may include:

• Electronic Mass Flow Control (EMC) is a unique technology, well-established and proven after years of experience. The EMC system includes hydraulically driven spinner discs, which use proven electromagnetic torque sensors to determine the rate of material falling to each disc separately. This measurement, allows the system to compare the measured rate to the rate set by the operator. If the rate does not match, it automatically compensates by opening or closing the metering gates independently for each side.

• The agitator regulates the supply, promotes fertilizer flow and helps keep the fertilizer intact. This is because the agitators stop immediately when the metering outlets are closed, protecting the granules from unnecessary agitation. Rotating at only 17 RPM, they handle the granules gently to significantly reduce damage and prevent powder formation.

• To ensure an accurate drop point of the fertilizer on the disc, a brush drop guide follows the fertilizer flow until it is caught by the paddles

• Included on all AXIS H-EMC-W machines are high-capacity weigh cells. Through the ISOBUS terminal, these weigh cells inform the operator of the quantity of material remaining in the hopper and assist with recording "as applied" nutrient managment maps.

• The discs, driven by the tractor’s hydraulic system, are independent of the engine. As a result, their spread pattern remains constant and can be adjusted when driving to field points. Spreading with reduced engine speed is possible, which decreases overall fuel consumption.

• Vari-Spread Pro (Section Control) maintains the proper working width by changing the drop point and the spreading disc speed.

• Metering outlets are opened and closed with GPS control. Even in field points Vari-Spread can shut off sections on the left and right sides at the ideal moment. The result is maximum comfort and the highest precision possible.

• On Axis H-EMC-W models, border spreading can be engaged on either the left- or right-hand side, via the control terminal.

• Two modes of border control are available on either side. Yield mode focuses on feeding the outside rows of crop, while environmental mode virtually eliminates placing any product out side of your set field boundary.
