Major Farm Machinery Manufacturer

Application

A leader in farm equipment manufacturing for the last 55 years is a company that constructs a full line of machinery that can withstand the adverse conditions of farming operations. The tillage equipment they manufacture is made of supreme quality components to service customers worldwide. VIAIR Industrial Grade (IG) compressors have been utilized as a pneumatic component of their agricultural grain drills.


As a manufacturer known for developing products that exceed customer expectations, they put special consideration into units they include in their equipment. That’s when they turned to VIAIR, because our compressors offer –

• Persistence: Our compressors are specifically built to last with a high duty cycle to continue the job without having to stop and rest.
• Quality: The highest quality materials and workmanship are made with a degree of excellence like VIAIR Industrial Grade compressors.
• Reliability: VIAIR is known to perform consistently well to ensure tried and true quality you can rely on.

How does a VIAIR compressor fit into their equipment? The grain drill puts seeds into tilled soil by mechanical agitation. These actions include digging, stirring or overturning organic matter into the soil. This process helps to control weeds, breaks up crusted soil, or loosens up small areas for planting. VIAIR compressors are hitch mounted to the grain drills, which allows the equipment to make down pressure adjustments in the field.

The pneumatic down pressure feature on the openers allows user-friendly adjustment to fit whatever conditions are encountered. This eliminates spring breakage and inconsistent depth control. A system pressure gauge is located at the front of the hitch and is used to monitor system pressure. Since it is normal for the system air pressure to vary while working in the field, openers raise and lower over ground conditions.

The agriculture company employs VIAIR compressors due to our products’ persistence, quality and reliability. They know VIAIR compressors are designed for the harsh conditions of agriculture environments and are made with a degree of excellence showcasing our tried and true quality.
