Subsoiler and cultivator combined into a single tillage machine

Soil compaction below the plough working depth is a significant issue, exacerbated by increasingly heavier tractors and agricultural machinery. The multi-purpose subsoiler U 638, proposed by Rolmako, addresses this problem. It is a universal cultivation machine suitable for soil cultivation in early autumn and spring, post-harvest plowing, and soil aeration and regeneration. The inclusion of a 400 mm wide side wing shares enhances its efficiency as a post-harvest tool. The machine can be quickly converted from a stubble cultivator to a deep loosening system appropriate for a subsoiler. The U 638 is designed with uncompromising quality, featuring top-class components found only in the most expensive machines on the market. The subsoiler version with a coupling for another tillage machine is designated as U 632.



Versatility unmatched by other tillage machines

The soil structure is severely compromised, with insufficient oxygen levels, leading to decreased cultivation income. The Rolmako multi-purpose subsoiler addresses this issue by facilitating deep soil loosening, allowing oxygen penetration. Weeds are significantly reduced, resulting in increased yield. The Rolmako U 638 and U 632 subsoilers are designed to meet the needs of modern agriculture and assist farmers in soil preparation tasks. The machine comes standard with double spring protection and working elements featuring sintered carbide. Both models share the same components and overload protection. The U 638 is a two-beam subsoiler/cultivator with a tillage roller and an optional mulching roller, while the U 632 is a single-beam subsoiler with a coupling for a tillage machine. The open frame structure enables the attachment of active machines, such as a active harrow or other accompanying machine.










Multi-purpose subsoiler for soil loosening and post-harvest work

The multi-purpose subsoiler is characterized by the lowest power requirement per working element. The strongest available spring protection in the Rolmako offering performs optimally during the most challenging cultivation moments. The U 638 and U 632 subsoilers exceed the functionality of standard subsoilers. The Atlas tine is equipped with an overload system featuring two robust springs. An effective mulching roller, combined with an additional tillage roller, prepares the machine for deep loosening and post-harvest cultivation. Depending on the installed working elements, the multi-purpose subsoiler can perform various cultivation tasks. The soil is loosened at depths ranging from 15 cm to 35 cm, depending on the previous crops and soil type, using carbide-tipped cutting skids. The application of a 400 mm undercutter converts the subsoiler into a stubble cultivator for stubble cultivation at depths of up to 15 cm. High-quality working parts allow for reduced soil cultivation costs. The Atlas tine enables faster, more efficient work and minimizes machine maintenance costs. Replacing working elements has never been so easy.

Machine construction



1. Three-point linkage

The massive suspension system serves as a supporting element of the mulching harrow. The solid tower of the three-point suspension system makes the machine durable and resistant to loads.

2. Dual-beam frame construction

The tines mounted on two beams render the subsoiler a versatile machine, also suitable for use as a comprehensive stubble cultivator.

3. ATLAS tine

The standard equipment of the Atlas tine includes a chisel, a skid, and a beam cover. The complete hard-faced plus sintered carbide components are of the highest quality.

4. Side wing shares 400 mm

Equipped with Side wing shares, the device excels in its role during stubble cultivation. This optimizes the use of one machine for multiple cultivation tasks, allowing for money savings that can be allocated to other investments.

5. PREMIUM working elements

The machine employs internationally recognized soil cultivation systems, utilizing readily available high-quality components from specialized suppliers.

6. Cemented carbide in standard

Cemented carbide-equipped working elements are advised for heavy loads on large-area farms or in non-stony soil cultivation services. Carbide plates can extend the operating time of subsoiler working elements by up to seven times.

7. Spring overload protection

Mechanical Non-Stop protection ensures seamless operation by negating the need for part replacements. The rapid upward tilting and return of the tine upon encountering obstacles maintain the preset working depth.

8. Adjusting of the working depth

The working depth is easily and operator-friendly adjusted hydraulically using spacer clips on the cylinders.

9. Additional mulching roller

This roller aggressively mixes soil with straw in deeper earth layers. It crushes clods while maintaining their quality for sowing preparation. The working depth of the tines is adjusted independently of the tillage roller behind it.

10. Tillage roller

To cultivate the soil effectively, selecting the appropriate tillage roller is essential. The choice depends on the soil type and the desired outcome. Each roller variant is designed for specific working conditions.

11. Spring comb beam

The manufacturer optionally installs a beam with a spring comb behind the disc section, ensuring the straw is evenly spread across the field's surface, thereby preventing areas of high straw accumulation that hinder proper cultivation.

12. Automatic arm lock

The transport lock is automatically engaged by a spring-loaded latch, which is released by a single-acting hydraulic cylinder.

13. Solid oversized machine frame

The solid frame construction is the most critical element of the cultivation machine. The substantial amount of steel used in its construction makes these robust tools capable of utilizing the high power of modern agricultural tractors, ensuring many years of operation on the farm.

14. Quality steel

Achieving a high-quality final product necessitates the use of superior metallurgical materials; therefore, in manufacturing the agricultural machine frame, we utilize fine-grained Swedish steels S500MC and S700MC.

ATLAS tine

The U 638 and U 632 subsoiler tines are distinguished by exceptional wear resistance, achieved through the use of premium materials. The standard equipment for the Atlas tine includes a chisel, skid, and beam cover, with the Side wing shares available as an option. All wear-exposed parts of the Atlas tine are finished with carbide elements, and consumable parts are hardfaced to extend lifespan and minimize machine servicing time. Atlas carbide working elements as standard:
- Higher work culture
- Minimal loss of time related to parts replacement
- Reduced need for mounting screws
- Minimizing additional machine passes
- Operating time extended by 5 to 10 times.





Spring overload protection

The U 638 subsoiler features a mechanical protection system with a double spring. In the event of contact with a stone, the tine and leg swing away, compressing the spring. Once the obstacle is cleared, the working elements automatically return to their working position. Each tine independently responds to obstacles, with the spring minimizing collision forces and ensuring immediate return to the precisely set working position. Spring protection for the tines is part of the standard equipment.





Mulching roller

The mulching roller is installed as an option. The working depth of the roller is set independently of the roller behind it. Adjustments are made quickly, accurately, and steplessly using a crank. This roller aggressively mixes the soil behind the straw in deeper layers. It crushes clods while maintaining soil quality as after preparation before sowing. Due to the large number of tines and their spiral arrangement, the mulching roller does not differ in efficiency and quality of work from rollers working in tandem. The mulching roller, in combination with other rear rollers, achieves excellent cultivation results.
