HORSCH Avatar SW – High-Capacity Disc Seed Drill for Direct Seeding

The HORSCH Avatar SW is a high-capacity disc seed drill designed for direct seeding as well as drilling into cultivated soils. Its individually depth-controlled SingleDisc coulters provide precise seed placement, while the robust design allows operating speeds of up to 15 km/h.

A large 12,000 litre double hopper with a 50:50 partition allows seed and fertiliser to be applied in the same pass. With 20 cm row spacing, the Avatar SW is also well suited to mechanical crop management systems, including combination with the HORSCH Transformer VF.

Key Features

12,000 Litre Double Hopper

The Avatar SW is equipped with a large 12,000 litre seed wagon with a 50:50 partition, allowing seed and fertiliser to be carried separately.

SingleDisc Coulter System

The proven HORSCH SingleDisc coulter opens the seed furrow cleanly and works with the seed skid to position seed accurately.

Up to 350 kg Coulter Pressure

Rubber torsion suspension allows up to 350 kg of coulter pressure per row, helping maintain penetration and seed depth in difficult conditions.

High Working Speed

The robust design allows working speeds of up to 15 km/h, providing excellent hectare output.

20 cm Row Spacing

A 20 cm row spacing makes the Avatar SW suitable for wide-row establishment and mechanical weed control systems.

Precise Individual Depth Control

Each coulter is individually depth controlled, allowing the machine to follow changing ground conditions while maintaining consistent seed placement.

Carbide Seed Skid

The seed skid features a carbide wear edge for improved durability.

HM+ Option

The optional HM+ version provides additional wear resistance for demanding and abrasive conditions.

Key Benefits

Ideal for Direct Seeding

High coulter pressure and the SingleDisc system allow accurate seed placement into uncultivated soils and stubble.

Seed & Fertiliser in One Pass

The 12,000 litre split hopper allows both products to be carried and applied efficiently.

High Daily Output

Large hopper capacity and speeds up to 15 km/h help maximise hectares covered per day.

Mechanical Weed Control Compatibility

The 20 cm row spacing is well suited to mechanical crop management with machines such as the HORSCH Transformer VF.

Accurate Seed Placement

Individual depth control helps maintain consistent sowing depth across varying ground conditions.

Low Maintenance

Maintenance-free pivots and bearings help reduce servicing requirements and downtime.
