The Enviro DD30 is an accurate double disc air seeder, which is easy to set up and use.
Each vee-shaped double disc assembly has a 380mm diameter scalloped disc which cuts through trash and establishes a tilth while making a slot in the ground. The paired plain disc holds the slot open for the seed and fertiliser placement. A following press wheel, roller or harrows are used to close the slot and create some seed to soil contact for enhanced germination.
Dual 700 litre hoppers are big enough to hold a half tonne bag of fertiliser or grass seed, and the high speed fan ensures seed and fertiliser is carried to the planting discs, even on steep slopes.
The DD drills come in 3m or 3.5m widths and with optional extras such as a crane, slug bait spinner or electric drive, this a very versatile drill.

Technology
Air seed distribution
Our air distribution systems consist of a high-speed hydraulically powered fan, which blows air through a venturi system and distributor heads out to the ground engaging components, which are either discs or tines.
Seed and fertiliser is metered out of the storage hoppers and drops into the passing airstream.
The fan has an oil cooling radiator mounted to the suction inlet which warms and dries the air to minimise blockages in humid conditions.
Air distribution is excellent on hills, uneven terrain or smooth worked ground because the seed is always being blown to the ground, rather than relying on gravity, chatter and hose vibration.
The air hoppers are typically larger than the gravity boxes so they are easier to fill, and air seeders can be wider than gravity drills and easily folded up to a transport width.
Double disc technology
Lower investment cost than a triple disc drill and lower maintenance costs with less wearing parts.
Large 380mm diameter heat treated discs work hard and have a long life.
A scalloped disc leads 30mm ahead of a plain disc to cut through trash and open up a rough slot creating tilth for good germination. The (full assembly) leading scalloped disc removes the need for an opening disc.
The plain disc holds the slot open to place the seed and the fertiliser into the slot.
The spring loaded jump assembly creates downward pressure but also allows the discs to ride up and over rocks and obstacles.
An optional press wheel or harrows close the slot to help with seed to soil contact and traps moisture.
