The MEGANT 602 R ensures optimum work output and great autonomy thanks to an 1800 liter hopper and a working width of 6.00 metres. With a lightweight design, it is suitable for tractors from 150 hp. It meets current environmental and economic challenges thanks to fast seeding and low fuel consumption. Synonymous with versatility, it is also capable of seeding in wet, stony conditions or even in the presence of plant residues.

Optimum work output and controlled costs

Seed up to 60 hectares per day!

The 1,800-litre hopper of the MEGANT 602 R seed drill can contain up to 1200 kg of wheat for maximum operating range. With a lightweight design, this seed drill has a low power requirement and is suitable for tractors from 150 hp. It thus meets current environmental and economic challenges thanks to fast seeding and low fuel consumption.

No more stops even in plant residues

The tines of the mounted min-till seed drill MEGANT 602 R are staggered in 4 rows spaced 40 cm apart for improved passage in plant residues. The risk of jamming is thus reduced to a minimum. To adjust the seeding depth, simply move a pin in the multiple position plate.

An additional hopper for more opportunities

The MEGANT 602 R can be equipped, as an option, with an additional SH 1120 hopper with a capacity of 110 litres, allowing seeding two varieties at the same time, such as cover crops for example, or even sowing and incorporating fertilizer in one pass! The desired application rate is injected into the flow of the main metering unit. The products are then mixed and delivered in the seeding line.

Performance ease and speed

The distribution head of the MEGANT 602 R seed drill is fitted, as standard, with VISTAFLOW valves allowing 2*2 row tramlining to be carried out. The left half shut-off is also available as an option for symmetrical tramlining.

Seed at all times an in any conditions

Gain in flexibility without impacting quality

The seeding tines of the MEGANT 602 R are mounted on a beam with an exclusive star-shaped profile and secured by four polyurethane holders. This particular design ensures perfect stability, a regular seeding depth, a vertical travel range of approximately 15 cm in the event of an obstacle. The MEGANT 602 R has been designed to seed quickly without altering the establishment quality, including in plant residues. All these assets make the MEGANT 602 R a versatile seed drill capable of seeding in sometimes difficult conditions, both on dry and wet soils, ploughed or min-tilled land.

Three types of seeding tines available

The MEGANT 602 R can be equipped with a choice of reversible aggresive, straight or 12mm-fine tine coulters. The reversible aggressive coulters ensure good soil penetration thanks to their agressive profile particularly suitable for working on prepared soils. Straight coulters are suitable for stony conditions. Finally, the 12 mm fine and robust tines easily penetrate the soil while limiting the movement of soil and plant residues at the level of the seeding line. Soil moisture is preserved. Distributed over 4 rows while offering regular and significant clearance, these fine tines are particularly suitable for seeding in the presence of plant residues or in stony conditions. They require little maintenance.

The secret to improved soil/seed contact

The MEGANT 602 R seed drill can be fitted with a covering harrow and press wheels. It rests both on its front wheels supporting the load of the hopper and on its rear press wheels. It follows ground variations independently of the tractor movements, ensuring a seeding depth evenness even on very irregular ground. The press wheels are mounted on elastomer blocks allowing clearance in the event of an obstacle. They are preceded by a cover harrow designed to close the furrow. Soil/seed contact is thus facilitated for optimal emergence.

Perfect cover ideal for high-speed seeding

For a perfect finish, this seed drill can be fitted with a double covering harrow. Composed of two rows of flexible tines, the double harrow ensures furrow closing, seed coverage and perfect levelling. The receding profile of the tines facilitates passage in straw or plant residues.

Your ease of use matters

Benefit from the ISOBUS compatibility

ISOBUS compatibility provides flexibility with the possibility of using the CCI 800, CCI 1200 terminals or any other ISOBUS terminal already available. For tractors not equipped with ISOBUS, seeding management can also be carried out via the KUHN VT 30 terminal. These terminals allow managing seeding directly from the tractor cab thanks to numerous functions: monitoring of blower speed and hopper filling level, tramline control, plot counter, flow control assistance and seed application rate modulation. With the CCI 800 and CCI 1200 ISOBUS terminals, seeding can be managed automatically by GPS whether for tramlining, application rate modulation via the TC-GEO function or seed drill stop/start at the headland with the Section Control function (TC-SC). The MEGANT is ISOBUS certified by the AEF.

Everything within reach!

The distribution head and the tubes of the MEGANT 602 R are located outside the hopper for easy filling and cleaning, an appreciable configuration when changing seed for example! The hopper, with a capacity of 1800 litres, has a wide opening (135 * 85 cm) and is accessible by a retractable ladder. The metering unit is ideally positioned for comfortable calibration test.

A powerful blower driven by an independent hydraulic circuit

The MEGANT 602 R is equipped with a hydraulic blower drive independent of the tractor's PTO speed. Thus, the blower speed is not affected by fluctuations in the engine speed. This has many advantages: easy adjustment of the blower speed, constant seed flow to the seeding units and fuel savings.

Equipment

Optional equipment available on the MEGANT 602 R seed drill

For increased seeding depth evenness

The MEGANT 602 R seed drill can be equipped, as an option, with a hydraulically adjustable leveling bar contributing to a perfectly regular seeding depth.

Is your soil light?

For seeding in light soils and with a significant difference in level, you can benefit from twin wheels on the central carrying wheels or on all carrying wheels. A real asset for controlling seeding depth in these conditions.

Precise tracking in the field

Side markers are available as optional equipment. They fold rearwards and are fitted with a safety in the event of hitting an obstacle as well as adjustment by lower stop.

Numerous possibilities

The MEGANT 602 R can be fitted, as an option, with an additional SH 1120 hopper with a capacity of 110 litres, allowing two varieties to be sown at the same time or even to sow and incorporate a fertilizer in a single pass!

Just what you need!

Particularly simple and intuitive, the VT 30 terminal equipped with a 3.5“/7.6 cm color touch screen combines numerous functions: monitoring of the metering unit and drive wheel rotation, automatic tramline control by rhythm : symmetrical or asymmetrical, hopper low level alarm, hectare counter and calibration test assistance.

The compact ISOBUS terminal!

The CCI 800 ISOBUS terminal certified by the AEF features a 8"/20.3 cm screen. Essential information is displayed with a main view and mini-views on the side. Click on the mini-view you wish to enlarge it. It is able to offer the same applications than the CCI 1200 terminal. Among the most innovating applications, it performs Section Control, application rate modulation from maps or biomass sensors and guidance assistance, all from GPS data. For seed drills, it also manages tramlining automatically. Connecting one or two video cameras increases comfort of use.

All the information on one screen!

The ISOBUS CCI 1200 terminal certified by the AEF focuses on three priorities: performance, visibility and flexibility. It allows you to intuitively control your machines thanks to its large 12.1"/30.5 cm anti-reflective touch screen. All the information essential during work can be displayed in different formats (vertical, horizontal, maxi-view, mini-view, double UT...) Among its most innovative applications, it performs Section Control, application rate modulation from maps and guidance assistance, all from GPS data. It also manages tramlines automatically. The connection of one or two video cameras increases comfort of use.
