SD3301MP e-bas Kubota SD3301MP e-bas Specifications & Technical Data (2016—2020)

Electronic controls

Two machine control systems are available for the SD2001MP & SD3001MP. Option No. 1 is the e-bas system which includes the basic electronics to run and monitor the machine functions via the Focus 3 terminal. The e-bas system controls the ELDOS metering device, tramlining, the hectare count and fan speed control. Option No. 2 is the e-com system which offers even more options required by the professional farmer. With the e-com system the seed drills are 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. 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 SD2001MP or SD3001MP can be controlled by the Kubota own IsoMatch Tellus GO or IsoMatch Tellus terminals.

SIGNUS Electronic seed control

The Signus tramline control combines comprehensive information, simple data input, a multitude of functions, and precise control, ideal when laying out tramlines for subsequent field operations. Signus also offers many other functions (the set-up of special rhythms, changes in the seed rate, monitoring of the fan speed, etc.), which can easily be set according to requirements and called up during the operation. Signus also has a full diagnostic function for testing machine sensors and outputs.

FGS Electronic terminal Control Box

The FGS tramline control system allows the operator to select from a variety of preprogrammed tramline rhythms. In operation the bout number and tramline valve activation are displayed by a series of LEDs located at the top of the control box. The system has an override function which allows the operator to correct his position within the rhythm. The FGS unit also features hopper low level (optional) and under voltage warning (standard).

IsoMatch Tellus

The IsoMatch Tellus is the first ISOBUS terminal in the world with the capability to operate 2 different (machine) screens through 1 terminal, without the need to constantly toggle between screens.

Euro-Connection

Flexibility is key: the coulterbar can be easily coupled and uncoupled with a coupling hook similar to the front loader coupling. Track markers are attached to the power harrow, therefore, the power harrow is ready for solo operation within a short time. The SD2001MP and SD3001MP are exclusively designed to be combined with Kubota power harrows (PH2001 and PH3000). The power harrows need to be equipped with the “Euro-Connection” coupling system.

CX-disc Coulter

The CX-disc coulter ensures exact seed placement under both wet and dry conditions. Due to the combination of convex steel disc and flexible plastic disc, there is no need for independent scrapers, saving the costs for expensive wearing parts. The convex steel disc forms a clean and clear furrow with light recompaction. The narrow profile allows higher working speed, and the convex form of the disc ensures good depth control. The flexible plastic disc keeps the furrow open for exact seed placement. It cleans the steel disc and helps prevent sticking and blocking. Narrow and wide press wheels are available for special seeding conditions. These press wheels can be fully lifted in case of changing weather conditions. The Suffolk coulter of Kubota is especially suitable for sowing after the plough and offers coulter distances between 9.4 and 15cm. The coulter tip of special cast can be exchanged when worn.

CX-II disc with rigid press wheel setting

The seeding depth is affected twice when facing obstacles in the field; the greater the distance between the coulter and the press wheel, the more influence it has on seed depth accuracy. The close coupling of the CX-II reduces this effect.

CX-II disc with flexible press wheel setting

The seeding depth is only affected once when facing obstacles in the field. Compared to the rigid position, the coulter is more free to follow the ground contours.

Lightweight cultivator-mounted seed drill for power harrows, rotary tillers and tine cultivators (working widths: 2.5 and 3.0m)

The Kubota SD1000M series is the top-selling pneumatic seed drill for all implement combinations. The easy handling and sturdy yet lightweight design of this professional starter model makes it an attractive option. Thanks to the favourable position of its centre of gravity and its light weight, the Kubota SD1000M series can even be used by smaller tractors with low lifting power. It can be used solo and as a cultivator-mounted model in combination with a wide variety of tillage implements. The metering system is mechanically driven via the spiked landwheel. The metering device is centrally positioned and easily accessible under the hopper. The 750 litre hopper is fitted with a UV-protective, weatherproof cover. The distribution head is mounted inside the seed hopper. Optional access steps make the seed hopper safely accessible for manual filling. The standard machine is equipped with a 1000 rpm V-belt drive or can also be supplied with a hydraulic drive.

Kubota sh1150 series

The modular structure of the Kubota SH1150 ensures even weight distribution across the machine arrangement, giving the tractor maximum balance. This improves both safety and manoeuvrability, whilst at the same time giving the driver an unrestricted view over the entire machine set-up. The Kubota SH1150 is more flexible than conventional seed drills. It can be used for both conventional and precision sowing. For precision sowing the front hopper is fitted with special metering devices and the appropriate distribution head for row fertilising. The standard hopper capacity is 1150 litres. This can be increased to 1700 litres with an optional hopper extension. The hopper can be filled using Big Bags, a front loader or an auger. An easily accessible, foldable platform at the hopper is available as an option to allow manual filling if required. Alternatively, the hopper can also be combined with a wheel packer for reduced front axle loading in work. The Kubota SH1150 is fitted with a metering device located under the hopper and is easily accessible from the front. A hydraulic fan drive can be supplied for tractors without a front p.t.o. shaft. The minimum power requirement for the Kubota SH1150 is 80 kW.

Kubota sh1650 series

As with the Kubota SH1150, the modular mounted construction of the Kubota SH1650 gives the tractor maximum balance. The big sister of the Kubota SH1150 has front twin hoppers feeding two metering devices. These are driven via the land-wheel, which runs on the right side of the machine. Hydraulic fan drives and land-wheel lifting are available as options. The hopper of the Kubota SH1650 holds up to 1650 litres of seed or fertiliser. This can be increased by an extension up to 2200 litres. Equipped with double entry coulters, the coulter bar applies fertiliser and seeds in one pass. Used in combination with a precision seed drill, the hopper is feeding up to 12 rows with fertiliser. The minimum power requirement for the Kubota SH1650 is around 130 kW, and with the electronic metering device ESA, the Kubota SH1650 is also GPS-compatible. The handy positioning of all valves and electrics is clear and convenient, facilitating easy adjustment and maintenance.
