Mounted reversible plough

VARI-MASTER L Smart Ploughing

The new Ploughing vision

KUHN is adding a new model to its range with the 4 to 6-bodied VARI-MASTER L, in order to adapt to the new range of compact 200 to 300 hp tractors. The MASTER L fills the gap between the MASTER 153 and the 183. Built for contractors and medium-sized farms and for intensive use, MASTER L range is divided in two types of safety: Safe-T and Hydro-Safe. Discover as well all of its advantages like the KUHN patented system 3D Skim for fast and easy settings of the working angles and the one-piece headstock designed to accept up to 300hp.

Your benefits:

  • Exclusive: automatic body-lift system assisted by GPS with Smart Ploughing Lift. A many times awarded innovation.
  • New offset kinematics aligns the plough perfectly for fuel savings and longer-lasting wear parts.
  • Patented adjustment of the angle of attack of the skimmers for better burial of residues.
  • The new arched beam reduces wheel overhang in order to optimise worked areas.

Key equipment

SMART PLOUGHING LIFT

Section Control in ploughing

KUHN continues to innovate by marketing the Smart Ploughing Lift system as early as the fall 2019. This technique incorporates Control Section, a GPS-assisted automatic body lift system on a plough. This innovation has also received multiple international awards including a silver medal at the Agritechnica 2017.

The GPS-assisted automatic body lift on VARI MASTER L ploughs allows sequential entry of the bodies at the end of the plot through geolocation.

KUHN integrates the Control Section in the plough to automatically and individually lift each body through a system completely built in the plough itself. The lift is fully secured by GPS. The geolocation of the plough allows automating the points of entry and exit of the bodies in order to obtain uniform ploughing, regardless of the working conditions and the shape of the plot.

Key equipment

Steady Control

The working depth is kept constant over the entire width of the tool, which reduces fuel consumption.
