The cultivation and seeding unit is designed for pre-sowing soil preparation following pre-sowing or pre-winter plowing. Its operation includes loosening and leveling the soil's upper layer, crushing clods, eradicating weeds, and compacting the soil below sowing depth to enhance water absorption and ensure better plant emergence. The cultivation unit with a seeder lift is ideal for farms with tractors of small lifting capacity for cultivation and seeding tasks. Choosing a lightweight cultivation unit is justified by its minimal operating costs. Utilizing this machine with a seeder is an economical and efficient option.
Tillage machine for working with seed drill
An effective solution for light and medium soils
The Rolmako cultivation and seeding unit is designed for use on light and medium-compact soils. This machine is compatible with a seeder, allowing for pre-sowing cultivation and seeding in a single pass. S-type tines are arranged in 2 or 3 rows to optimize the passage of plant residues, clods, and stones. The unit features a universal hitch axle, facilitating suspension on the tractor's lower links. It is available in four working widths: 2.5 m, 2.7 m, 3.0 m, and 4.0 m. The universal hydraulic lift ensures seamless connection with any seeder. Low tractor power requirements, high working efficiency, and compact dimensions for easy transport are the key features that enhance the farmer's work.
Optimal conditions for the seeding machine
The working elements are designed for light and medium soils, supporting operations at speeds up to 12 km/h. The spring tine mounting system facilitates simple replacement. Depending on the model, the S-type tines are arranged in either two or three rows. The standard machine includes both bent or straight tines. Proper spacing of the cultivation tools within a row ensures uniform soil loosening and effective results. The adjustable working elements accommodate any seeder type. For cultivation and seeding units, customers frequently select a pipe roller for light soils, a string roller with cogged bars or Packer for stronger soils, and a Crosskill roller for breaking clods in dry, lumpy soil.

Cultivation tools
S-type spring tines
The machine features spring tines with vibrating and self-cleaning actions. The working elements can be mounted in either two or three rows, each configuration accommodating 21 spring tines for a working width of 3.0 m. The three-row cultivation and seeding unit offers larger gaps between individual working elements, making it more effective in fields with poorer soil maintenance structures. The 32 mm x 12 mm spring tine is available in two versions, bent or straight, with a reduced tendency to clog with soil.
Front string diagonal roller
The flat bar roller with diagonally mounted slats is positioned in front of the seedbed cultivator working elements. The roller breaks up the top layer of soil, supplementing the cultivation process. Mounted on a swing arm, the roller unit adapts to the cultivated field surface and breaks down clods of earth, thereby aiding the subsequent working tools of the cultivation-sowing unit.
Coupling for seeder
The seedbed cultivator is designed to operate with any grain seeder. The adjustable seeder coupling permits compatibility with equipment from any manufacturer. The two-cylinder seeder lift ensures optimal weight distribution by positioning the grain seeder closer to the tractor, thereby reducing stress on the hydraulic lift of the three-point linkage. The supports beneath the seeder wheels relieve the hydraulic lift during transport.
Tillage rollers
Kneading, compacting the soil, crushing clods, and leveling the field surface are the final stages of cultivation performed by the rear roller following the operations of cultivation machinery tools. The selection of the appropriate cultivation tool significantly impacts the overall work process and the efficiency of the cultivation machine. Rolmako offers a range of cultivation rollers that vary in shape, material, external diameter, weight, and cultivation purpose. The choice depends on the soil type and the desired cultivation effect. At Rolmako, we provide professional consulting services to configure agricultural equipment properly, ensuring it is adapted to the operating conditions.
Key properties
Concept of a seedbed cultivator
- cultivation and sowing in a single pass
- preparing the soil for sowing on light and medium soils
- light machine for the tractor lift
- two variants of tines arrangement on the machine
- strong coupler for a grain seeder
- grain seeder on the lift close to the tractor in transport position
- copying the shape of cultivated land
- efficient and user-friendly unit
- low purchase costs.
Depth adjustment
Depth adjustment must be precise, quick, and easy to perform. The seedbed cultivator is equipped with two cranks for adjusting the depth of the spring tines. The selected depth is secured with a pin to relieve the adjustment screws during cultivation. Depth settings are made without using additional tools.
Three-point linkage
The massive tower of the three-point suspension system serves as a load-bearing element of the cultivation and seeding unit, to which a frame with a section of spring tines and a hydraulic coupler are connected. The design is characterized by excellent stability and ease of operation. Connected to the seeder coupler, it is a key element of the machine, in which a compromise between the weight of the unit and its strength has been found.
Roller bearing units
By integrating maintenance-free bearings into the tillage rollers, we reduce machine maintenance time. The ductile cast iron housing is four times more durable than its grey cast iron counterpart. The combination of top and internal sealing provides superior protection for agricultural use. Rolmako prioritizes the smallest machine elements in every project, significantly impacting maintenance time and reducing the costs and duration of agricultural equipment inspections.
Oversized agricultural structures
Rolmako tillage machines distinguish themselves from competitors due to their superior weight. The company's development team designs agricultural equipment to endure the most challenging working conditions. Rolmako machines efficiently cultivate land in demanding regions worldwide without requiring additional loads. The substantial amount of steel in their construction makes these tillage tools robust, enabling the utilization of high-power modern tractors and ensuring long-term farm investment.
Steel providing an advantage
Increasingly larger and more powerful agricultural tractors subject the structural elements of agricultural machinery to significant stress, pushing them to their operational limits. Modern agricultural structures are expected to demonstrate high resistance to loads and an extended service life. Achieving a high-quality end product necessitates the use of superior-quality steel in production. Accordingly, we utilize high-quality Swedish fine-grained steels S500MC and S700MC, as well as carbon and boron steels for heat treatment and the wear-resistant Hardox. The use of these high-quality steel products ensures our agricultural equipment is highly durable and capable of operating at high speeds with high surface efficiency.
