Compact and economical
The MS 23 has been specially designed for sowing on finely-prepared soils, when you’ve got a reduced working-space (e.g. when sowing under tunnels, or when you want to sow with a narrow gap between rows). Naturally, it also has the key features of EBRA seed-drills: versatility, change crops in a few minutes … Each unit has a single wheel, which makes it EBRA’s most economical towed seed-drill, with great value for money.
For reduced spaces or narrow between-row spacings
The MS 23 exists in a 1 to 6 rows mounted on a simple beam frame, and from 2 to 11 rows on a double-line frame. Mounted on a double-line frame with the units in staggered rows, it allows an inter-row spacing of 12 cm! More generally, its compact size makes it very suitable for reduced spaces such as tunnels or glass-houses, and also allows for mounting between the axles of a tool-carrier, on a cultivator, a micro-tractor, a soil-working machine (combine seeding).
Independent seeding units
Each seeding unit is composed of an inclined aluminium distribution plate (see “The Principle” section) which is driven independently by the unit’s wheel. In this way, the units are completely independent from each other: this allows very easy modification of the number of lines, the inter-row spacing and gives the option of sowing different crops from one row to the next in one pass.
Easy to use
This is one of the main advantages that EBRA seed-drills are noted for - they’re easy to use:
- change the plate or set the density in just a few minutes – without needing any tools
- complete flexibility of the number of rows, as well as the spacing between rows
- instant emptying drain-shutter
