Salford Group AB300AF Applicator for Agco Floaters
Features
6700 AGCO Salford’s next-generation air boom applicator offers versatility, precision application and efficiency all in one complete package. Featuring Salford’s Valmar air boom technology, this self-propelled chassis mounted air boom offers a 90-foot application width with one of the largest hoppers on the market. This design offers greater capacity for fewer fill-ups, an easy-to-operate metering system and the most advanced air boom system available on the market today. The 6700 is ideal for broadcast application of granular fertilizer, granular chemicals, cover crops and micro-nutrients.
REVOLUTIONARY NEW HOPPER DESIGN
The new 6700 model is capable of applying one, two or three products at once with various hopper configurations. Empty hoppers can be adjusted in seconds with no tools or bin inserts required.
The hoppers are made out of 409 stainless steel and can be painted to match your chassis.
METERING SYSTEMS
Salford’s latest 6700 model features Valmar’s Venturi metering design with proven reliability and simple maintenance. Set up for Raven® RCM, you can reduce application overlap and save on input costs with variable rate application and left / right section control.
Compartments 1 and 2 are equipped with 304 stainless steel conveyors and the micro hopper uses a metering roller system to help accurately apply micro-nutrients, cover crops or granular herbicides while fertilizer is metered from the main hoppers.
BOOM PROTECTION
The 90-foot, bi-fold booms are built with 304 stainless steel and spring-protected break-away tips. Hydraulic boom suspension allows for greater in-field stability at higher operating speeds. The optional Raven UltraGlide AutoBoom® system can be added and calibrated to provide worry-free operation of the boom controls.
