Product features | MATRIX 1200

The latest generation of the MATRIX series impresses with its exact depth guidance, precise singling and depositing as well as convenient operation. The 12-row or 18-row mechanical precision seeder can be used for seeding beet, canola-seed and seed of root chicory. Thanks to the new parallelogram suspension, the seeding unit is guided precisely in the row and, thanks to the additional coulter pressure available, even in difficult soil conditions. The machine is suitable for conventional seeding (after ploughing) and mulch seeding (with reduced tillage), using a row width of 45 or 50 cm. A wide range of different caster wheels is available for various soil conditions. The precision seeder is operated via an ISOBUS compatible CCI 800, CCI 1200 operator terminal or alternatively via the tractor terminal. Smart assistance systems such as Section Control, Clever Planting, the new MATRIX-seed or Variable Rate Control can be used to implement targeted agricultural measures. Relevant machine information can be accessed, managed and exchanged via a data interface using the myGRIMME end customer portal.

Precice seed placement

Precice seed placement

Low drop height leads to a precise seeding into the seed furrow

Fast movement between fields

Fast movement between fields

The hydraulic lifting and folding mechanism, without sensors, ensures a quick change from field to field.

Quick and tool-free adjustment

Quick and tool-free adjustment

The new frame and single row concept allows the MATRIX to be adjusted without tools and without having to move between the rows. To ensure that the seeding units of rows with a running wheel are also easily accessible, the running wheels can be folded up and locked into place without tools for maintenance and cleaning work.

Electrical single row drive

Electrical single row drive

The electric single-row drive enables variable spacing of tubers and seed, Clever Planting, Section Control, MATRIX-seed and the creation of so-called turnpike-rows as well as harvest-windows.

Easy creation of so-called "harvest windows".

Easy creation of so-called "harvest windows".

Defined "bed markings" can be created by selecting the number of rows (e.g. 6 rows) and the distance (e.g. 2 m).

Optimum adaptation to the ground contour

Optimum adaptation to the ground contour

The increasing importance of mechanical weed control makes a precise, central placement of the seed in the row necessary. The revised parallelogram meets these requirements in a perfect way, thanks to its true-to-gauge seed-placement.

Special Equipment Options

Smart technology for precise operation and optimal results when using your machine.

Additional hydraulic loading of pressure
Additional hydraulic loading of pressure
The hydraulic pressure support makes operation particularly comfortable, as it can be adjusted smoothly and precisely to the desired setting. Both the display and the adjustment are controlled directly via operator terminal. With a load capacity of up to 120 kg, the system can be optimally adapted to a variety of operating conditions, significantly enhancing ease of use, safety and efficiency.
Mechanical loading of pressure
Mechanical loading of pressure
The mechanical pressure support can be adjusted to four different settings, allowing the contact pressure to be reliably adapted to different soil conditions. A pressure of up to 90 kg can be set per seeding unit, which helps to ensure consistent and precise seed placement. In addition, the system features a separate pressure setting for the tractor track, which allows for increased pressure of up to 120 kg to ensure reliable and consistent seeding performance even in compacted areas.

Why You Choose Us

These benefits show you what to expect and how they make your day-to-day work easier.

Output optimisation benefit illustration

Precision

Output optimisation:

Clever Planting standard: More even growth of the crop and better utilisation of water, nutrients and light by reducing the planting distances in the rows next to the tramlines.

MATRIX-seed:

Within the machine width, each individual seed is placed in a triangular formation for an optimised crop distribution.
Advantages:
  • More even use of the nutrients which are available in the soil
  • Improved use of sunlight and water
  • Improved aeration of the cultivated crop, thus reduced problems with pathogens
  • Soil erosion between the rows can be reduced significantly.
Easy seeding up to the edge of the field benefit illustration

Full power

Easy seeding up to the edge of the field:

The lane marker fold into the machine contour and are thus protected against collision damage to hedges and fences.

Don't waste any time:

The hydraulic lifting and folding mechanism, without sensors, ensures a quick change from field to field.
