Our aim to bring you the utmost precision, funnily enough, takes a whole lot of precision.
It’s the small details that ensure our Pro-Series fertiliser spreaders are world-class. With top-of-the-line touchscreen control, precision spreading rates, spinner speeds, border spreading and headland control at your fingertips, you’ll nail every job.
Giltrap Engineering combines seamless design and world-class technology into every piece of machinery.
All models of our PRO-SERIES fertiliser spreaders are standard with an electronic rate control with colour graphic touch display. This advanced control provides you peace of mind that you can spread every job perfectly.
Key Features
- 3mm grade 304 stainless steel bin. Rear spinner frame is hot dip galvanised. The spinner discs are stainless steel with replaceable stainless spinners, offering exceptional corrosion resistance, extended wear, and durability
- Scales can be fitted at the factory or supplied as an after-market kit. This gives an accurate weight of the fertiliser in the bin, and enables the auto-calibration function to enhance the application accuracy
- Low centre of gravity for safety around hills
- The hydraulically adjusted door with multiple spreading positions for different application rates and products, ensuring fast and positive opening and closing. This enhances the reliability of correct application rates
- The 850mm wide x 8mm thick vulcanised endless rubber belt has 5mm high chevron cleats to move fertiliser, compost and poultry manure efficiently through the door
- Independently touch screen adjusted spinners from the tractor seat with sectional boundary control spreading function. This fingertip control allows precise adjustment of spreading widths and helps prevent spreading into areas where it's not desired
- The spinner direction is easily reversed at the hydraulic valve enabling more effective spreading of bulky organic fertiliser and compost
For those wanting more advanced control and measurement there is an upgrade to include GPS functionality. This will enable coverage mapping of jobs as they are done for proof of placement and add prescription maps through the USB port for variable rate spreading.
Our large range of models all feature a wide belt and a stainless steel bin to save you time in the field and on maintenance. Plus advanced features including headland and sectional control will give you precise delivery of fertiliser on every job.
All you need to know is the fertiliser density, your spreading width and the desired application rate - the computer does the rest so you can focus on driving.
The 3mm corrosion resistant stainless steel bin will last for years, and the 850mm wide rubber belt lets you spread almost anything you can think of.
These fertiliser spreaders are packed with features to make your job easier.
Manage and monitor all rates, spreading parameters and job records with the electronic touch screen controller
The proportional hydraulic control valve delivers oil to the belt drive and is adjusted automatically by the computer to maintain a constant fertiliser application rate
The 3mm grade 304 stainless steel bin provides years of corrosion-free use. The wide low profile bin is easy to fill and stable on steep hills
The stainless bin is bolted, not welded to the independent chassis. This makes it easy to remove and service if required, and minimises any risk of stress cracking from welding stainless to mild steel. Load cells for electronic weighing can be factory fitted or easily retro-fitted
The extremely durable 850mm wide x 8mm thick vulcanised endless rubber belt, with 5mm chevron cleats, capably moves fertiliser, lime, compost and chicken manure efficiently through the rear door
Spinner speeds are adjusted independently on the left and right hand sides through the touch screen from the tractor seat. The system includes a sectional boundary control spreading function
Bi-directional spinner vanes can be fitted to run the spinner discs in reverse for spreading high volume rates of lime, compost and poultry manure
The door height is quickly and easily adjusted hydraulically with multiple spreading positions to cover the range of products and application rates
An optional PVC rollover cover keeps rain out of the bin. The cover rolls up tightly when it’s not in use, and is easily stretched taut over the bin to provide a reliable weatherproof seal
Technology
Touchscreen Electronic Rate Control
We combine seamless design and world-class technology into every piece of machinery. All models of the PRO-SERIES and Orchard fertiliser spreader are standard with an electronic rate control with colour graphic touch display. This advanced control is operated from the tractor seat and provides you peace of mind that you can spread every job perfectly.
THIS TECHNOLOGY PROVIDES THE FOLLOWING KEY FEATURES
• Precision and flexibility to vary spreading rates electronically
• Includes touch screen control for the spinner speeds and border spreading
• Optional electronic scales to precisely measure the load and amount spread
• Checks spreading rates
• Provides automatic rate calibration with scales fitted.
MORE CONTROL
For those wanting more advanced control and measurement there are additional upgrade options:
1. GPS functionality to enable coverage mapping of jobs as they are done for proof of placement and add prescription maps through the USB port for variable rate spreading
2. Automatic headland control to switch the belt off in areas that have already been spread with fertiliser
ADVANCED FEATURES INCLUDE
• Monitored functions including rate and belt speed warnings delivered as audible warnings and visual messages
• Transfer your data between the field and your office using a USB port
• Product calibration by name and product, adjusting the spread width and application rate at the touch of a button
• Record all areas mapped including the rate, date and tonnages
