Self-controlled and fail-safe

Four seed rotors are delivered as standard for fine, medium and large seeds or fertiliser. If the operator selects the wrong rotor by mistake, the system recognises this and gives a warning. It is completely self-controlled and fail-safe. The exchange of the rotors is carried out quickly and easily without the need of any tools. Application rates from 1 to 400 kg/ha are possible depending on working speed and width. Rotor no. 5 is offered for maize, sunflowers and greening seeds. There is no need for any tools to remove the cover or change the rotor. The software is controlling the system. It is a fixed drive system and needs no adjustments. Therefore rotor recognition avoids selecting the wrong rotor.

ELDOS the precision metering device

The ELDOS metering device is electrically driven and is fully ISOBUS compatible in the e-com version. Auto on/off using GEOCONTROL and a GPS signal is possible, which avoids double seeding on the headland. Special sensors ensure perfect functionality, all monitored from the tractor cab.

Electronic control

The e-com system offers all options required by the professional farmer. With the e-com system, the SC is fully ISOBUS compatible and ready for Plug & Play! Using an industry standard plug, the machine is connected directly to the ISOBUS terminal of an ISO compliant tractor (DIN-ISO 11873). All machine information and control functions are shown on the tractor virtual terminal; no additional monitor is necessary. The auto on/off function using GEOCONTROL and a GPS signal is possible, which avoids double seeding on the headland. If the tractor is not equipped with an ISOBUS compatible system, the SC1001 can be controlled by the Kubota own IsoMatch Tellus GO or IsoMatch Tellus terminals.

Be a PRO in increasing productivity

The IsoMatch Tellus PRO 12-inch terminal provides you with the optimal solution for an all-in-one control system inside the tractor cab, including automatic steering. It is the centre for connecting all ISOBUS machines, running precision farming applications and Farm Management Systems. It offers everything you need to get the maximum out of your machines and crop, chemicals, and seeds by using automatic section control and variable rate control. With the unique dual screen functionality, it gives you the opportunity to view and manage two machines and/or processes simultaneously.

Easy control management

The IsoMatch Tellus GO is a cost-efficient 7-inch terminal, especially developed for managing the machine in a simple way. You are in full control of the machine in exactly the way you want. Easily set up the machine with the soft keys via the 7-inch touch screen, and for optimal control while driving, simply use the hard keys and rotary switch. Controlling the implement has never been so easy.

100% focus, the best performance

As tractor steering with IsoMatch AutoDrive-E is handled automatically, you have the freedom to control and monitor your work in an easy way. While the work is more efficient and overlaps are avoided, you can completely focus on the result in the field (only in combination with IsoMatch Tellus PRO).

Advanced precision farming software

IsoMatch GEOCONTROL is an advanced software application within the IsoMatch terminals that helps you to control all ISOBUS compatible Kubota machines. Combined with a GPS receiver, it fulfils the future needs in terms of innovative and efficient farming! The IsoMatch GEOCONTROL precision farming application includes Manual Guidance and Data Management free of charge. It is possible to expand this application with Section Control and/or Variable Rate Control.

Enhance your success with E-learning

IsoMatch Simulator is a free downloadable virtual training program. It simulates all functions of the IsoMatch Universal Terminals and Kubota ISOBUS machines. Train yourself and make yourself familiar with your machine to avoid errors and enhance your machine performance.

Control

You want full control over what you are doing. Kubota provides you with perfectly integrated systems to help you achieve that. From machine optimisation to implement monitoring, you can control the tractor and resources easily from a single terminal. This not only provides you with a better overview of all work processes but also allows you to work without stress.

Optimisation

You know exactly how you want to get your work done: efficiently, precisely, and most comfortably. Kubota gives you everything you need to obtain optimal results while remaining at ease. With our ISOBUS technology, precision farming solutions, and automatic steering system, you can apply seeds, fertilisers, and pesticides with extreme precision. This lowers your costs and reduces your workload.

Uniform seedbed preparation

Two rows of discs like on our short disc harrow CD1000 with its conical disc shape and individual suspension ensures a fine and uniform seedbed over the entire working width. The disc harrow can be adjusted with continuous variability from the cab.

Perfect soil coverage

Harrowing the soil surface completes the seeding. S-shaped or finger harrows ensure an optimum covering of the seeds. The working intensity can be set by the stepless pressure adjustment and at three different angles. To prevent damage to the harrow when reversing, it is equipped with an effective reversing device.

Strong, user-friendly and universal

The SC1001 is available either as a standard drill combination or as a grain and fertiliser version, the SC1001C. While the rigid SC1001 comes in working widths of 3.00 and 4.00m, there are the folding 4.00m and 6.00m versions also available. Its compact design is an advantage for working in the field and transporting on the road. The rear mounted tyre packer also acts as a transport system. The V-shape main frame on the rigid version allows good access and needs low pulling force due to less weight.

Pre-levelling of the soil

For the best possible preparation, the optional front tyre packer levels the soil, crushes large clods and thus paves the way for the optimum depth control of the following tools. The front tyre packer has a diameter of 800mm and can be lifted hydraulically, simply by pushing a button, when it is not needed.

CD coulter for stable seed depth control

The narrow profile of the coulters with their slightly offset steel discs allows easy penetration into the soil. As a consequence, less pressure is required and only minimal soil is moved. This configuration allows the 100kg of possible coulter pressure to be primarily applied to the integrated press wheel. The stable depth control and the pressing of the seed in the soil produce a capillary system in the soil that ensures access to water and excellent seed germination.

Calibration

The calibration test with the ELDOS is very simple due to the on-screen guidance for all seed settings. The operator simply enters the desired values into the terminal; no gears have to be adjusted, just press the button to start calibration and that’s it. A remote control allows the calibration process to be carried out directly at the metering device, and the calibration is done automatically.

Headland management

By pressing just one button, the SC1001 operator initiates the headland management, starting the automatic operation of wheels, discs, and the coulter bar. Thus, the SC1001 only needs one double acting control valve.

No double seeding

Also, the metering device ELDOS stops automatically with the headland sequence. The SEEDER CONTROL ensures that no seed is lost by double seeding. In times of rising seed prices, this really saves money.

Constant depth control

To ensure a constant depth control, the lifting sequence starts with the disc section, followed by the front packer and the coulter bar. At the same time, the metering device is stopped; this ensures the seed hoses are empty at the headland. This saves up to 5% of seed.

Superior precision and ease of handling

If you are looking for perfect execution: levelling the soil, preparing the seed bed, re-consolidation, seed placement accuracy and smooth covering in one single pass. The SC universal seed drill combines capacity, easy adjustment and perfect seed placement. It brings savings through lower draft force, less seed usage, reduced working time and reduced fuel consumption.

Placement in the disc harrow

The application in the second row of the disc harrow ensures that the fertiliser is applied exactly in between two seed coulter rows. All plants have the same distance to reach the incorporated fertiliser.

Application in the row

The fertiliser application in the sowing row is done by an double-entry outlet. The fertiliser is placed in the trench with the seeds. This is especially suitable for phosphoric fertiliser in order to support the initial germination and development of the plants in the most efficient way. The special design of the coulter with two exits also allows the seeding of two different crops in just one working pass.

Effective in combination with maximum flexibility

A perfect combination of sowing and fertilising is an important step to high yields and sustainable farming. The SC drill combines the possibilities to apply two products in one pass. Either seeds together with fertiliser or cover crops.
