Wil-Rich 3400

Engineering approach to soil management

Wil-Rich equipment is engineered to withstand extreme conditions where frame geometry and processing depth stability are critical. The hallmark of the Wil-Rich design philosophy is the use of high-strength structural steel with a rigidity reserve that prevents frame torsion even when encountering hidden obstacles.

Key components and their performance

• Working Section Geometry: Wil-Rich patented shank geometry minimizes resistance during soil penetration. This reduces the draft load on the tractor, effectively lowering fuel consumption per hectare while maintaining precise working depth.
• Terrain Following System: Depth control mechanisms feature robust hydraulic components with secure locks that prevent settings from drifting due to vibrations at higher operating speeds.
• Shank Mounting: Heavy-duty spring protection allows the soil-engaging tools to deflect upon hitting obstructions and return to the original working position without losing the set angle of attack. This eliminates shallow depth inconsistencies in difficult soil conditions.

The practical result of these engineering choices is a uniform load distribution across the entire working width. Unlike lighter alternatives, Wil-Rich implements ensure consistent depth from the center to the wing sections, which is essential for creating a uniform seedbed and ensuring optimal germination.
