Kuhn ADVANCE 300.1

Accurate Spreading, Wide Working Widths

Electronic Mass Flow Control (EMC) System
Electronic Mass Flow Control (EMC) is a unique technology, well-established and proven after years of experience. This torque-based system measures and continuously adjusts the application rate on each disc separately for complete flexibility and high precision. EMC technology delivers up to 98% accuracy between the set rate and the actual as-applied rate.

Coaxial Distribution Adjustment (CDA) System
The Coaxial Distribution Adjustment (CDA) system ensures constant and automatic adjustment, even when there are variations in working width, application rate or ground speed to ensure precise application. This system includes two important features that make it unique:
The pivoting hopper base enables quick adaptation to various fertilizers and working widths by adjusting the drop point of the fertilizer onto the spreading discs.

Specially designed metering outlets close to the center of the discs allow multiple supply points to the paddles. This helps ensure constant fertilizer flow and an even spread pattern as the application rate changes.

Border Control
Border spreading is accomplished on the Advance fertilizer spreader by reducing disc speed and/or drop point, so fertilizer stays within the boundaries of your fields. Border spreading can be engaged on either the left- or right-hand side via the ISOBUS control terminal, creating a more trapezoidal spread pattern on the selected side.

Wide Working Widths
Working widths of up to 164’ (50 m) mean fewer passes across the field, saving you valuable time, conserving fuel and reducing soil compaction.

VariSpread and OptiPoint Technologies
The VariSpread Section Control system saves fertilizer by shutting off sections in point rows and oddly shaped fields to decrease overlap and reduce input costs. In manual mode, four sections per side are selectable (eight total). In automatic GPS mode, the system adjusts the drop point and disc speed constantly, resulting in a continuously variable spread width.

OptiPoint Pro Headland Control takes the guesswork out of headland turns, starting or stopping the discs at just the right moment to reduce overlap.

Versatile Configurations for Any Operation

Axis® PowerPack
The Axis PowerPack is the hydraulically driven module for high-precision spreading of granulated fertilizer. Based off the well-proven Axis H-EMC model design and constructed from stainless steel, the fertilizer system allows granulated fertilizer and seeds to be spread with ultimate precision from 60’ to 164’ (18 to 50 m) depending on material.

Universal PowerPack
The Universal PowerPack allows for accurate spreading of ag lime as well some organic material. The Universal PowerPack contains larger and heavier spinning discs to spread the heavy and moist material up to 60’ (18 m). The Universal PowerPack can be used for variable rate application as standard.

Adjustable Axle
All Advance .1 models feature adjustable axle spacing from 80” – 90” – 120” (203 – 229 – 305 cm) as standard. Combined with a high ground clearance of 36” (91 cm) and multiple tire options, operators can set the machine for in-season nutrient application in both 20” and 30” (51 and 76 cm) rows.

Premium Features In Every Machine

Commercial-Grade Main Hopper
The main hopper is constructed from 304 stainless steel for outstanding corrosion resistance. Wires and hoses are routed through the enclosed horizontal side channels to prevent water and fertilizer infiltration.

Continuous Belt Conveyor
A continuous rubber conveyor moves the product from the main hopper to the PowerPack in the rear. This durable design provides a positive drive to eliminate slippage in heavy lime conditions. The conveyor runs “uphill” toward the rear-mounted PowerPack, which improves balance and tongue weight by keeping the majority of the load toward the front of the machine.

Weighing System
Four weigh cells located between the hopper and frame to inform the operator of the quantity remaining in the hopper. This helps the operator anticipate the appropriate reloading points and avoid running out of product mid-pass. The weighing system also aids in regulatory documentation and record keeping.
