Väderstad Swift 560 with vibrating tines in speed

Vibrating tines

The Swift tines provide effective mixing down to 20cm working depth. Since the tine vibrates with a frequency up to 100 times per second, it produces a very fine soil.

An additional benefit comes from the fact that the vibrations result in less wear on points, thereby lowering operating costs and time spent on service.

The Swift tine is unique in its strength and therefore comes with a three-year warranty.

MixIn - Double mixing and crumbling

All Väderstad tine cultivators are equipped with the unique MixIn shin as standard.

The MixIn shin throws the material forwards instead of upwards, which otherwise is the usual direction. When it has landed, the material passes by the tines once again, and the mixing and crumbling effect is doubled. The forward movement further enhances the straw distribution, leading to a more even crop emergence.

The unique MixIn shin provide superior mixing and crumbling, without increasing fuel costs.

Product concept

Zone 1 - Intense mixing

Swift has a narrow tine spacing of 19.3cm. Since the tine and point are constantly vibrating, there is plenty of space for soil to be cultivated and pass through. The vibrating action increases the cultivation intensity and helps lower the draught requirement.

MixIn shin options

Goose foot

Zone 2 - Levelling

The star-shaped maintenance-free levellers are manufactured from specially hardened V-55 steel.The levellers can be adjusted hydraulically from the tractor cab.

Zone 3 - Finish

Swift can be fitted with a following harrow or Tiller tines to further improve the working result. The connecting drawbar adds the possibility to attach a roller, for increased reconsolidation, levelling and clod crushing.
