Performs tillage and seeding operations simultaneously.

Working width can be reduced or increased by up to 25% by changing the working angle. This feature distinguishes it from other seed drills.

Weed control is also achieved through the tillage performed during seeding.

Unlike conventional seed drills, in this design seeds are first freely scattered onto the soil surface from the seed metering housings.

Disc coverers at the rear of the seeding machine spread the soil they lift from the ground over the seeds. This allows seeding to be adjusted more precisely than many modern seed drills.

Particularly successful in seeding small surface-sown seeds such as spinach, sesame, alfalfa, and canola. There is no risk of seeds escaping to excessive depths as experienced in conventional seed drills.

Since soil is thrown directly onto the seeds, there is also no problem of exposed seeds.

Dimensions are determined by the number of discs. 24 and 30 row configurations are the most commonly used sizes.

Widely used across the African continent, primarily in Sudan, particularly for sesame seeding. For this reason it is also known as a sesame seeder.
