KUHN CHALLENGER Plough
The CHALLENGER plough is the solution for high power tractors and extreme working conditions. It offers particularly high work rates thanks to its large working width.
The 110 ° turning angle provides exceptional manoeuvrability and time savings when making U-turns at the headland. Robustness is also a major asset of the CHALLENGER range, as it has a 220 mm frame section. As for the quality of work, the articulation of the frame ensures land undulations are perfectly followed, for a high-quality ploughing.
Features & Benefits
CHALLENGER semi-mounted ploughs are manufactured with a single piece headstock. This unique part offers a much higher robustness than the other ploughs on the market since it eliminates the risk of deformation or loosening of the structure. Furthermore, the one-piece steel pivot adds solidity to the plough with one sole traction line. The traction points are located very low to guarantee maximum load transfer and provide better traction when conditions become difficult.
- The range of CHALLENGER semi-mounted ploughs is available from 7 to 12 bodies. Its large number of bodies makes it possible to obtain very high work rates. In fact, when climate windows are tight, the CHALLENGER ploughs allow you to save time by ploughing with a large number of bodies and working widths combined with a very great manoeuvrability at the headland.
- The CHALLENGER semi-mounted ploughs feature a wide choice of wear parts to guarantee perfect ploughing whatever the conditions. The bodies are made with a wide and high stem to effectively protect the mouldboard and the share.
- The transport suspension protects the plough and the tractor by means of a hydro-pneumatic damper providing suspension of the whole.
