Key Features

High-Speed Operation

The Cultro TC operates at speeds of up to 20 km/h, allowing large areas to be covered quickly while maintaining low fuel consumption.

Intensive Residue Crushing

Counter-rotating knife rollers create a helical working pattern, providing reliable and intensive crushing of crop residues and organic material.

High-Speed Knife Rollers

Each 300 mm diameter roller features six knives. The small roller diameter creates a high rotational speed for an intensive cutting and crushing effect.
