The company Maschinenfabrik Schmotzer GmbH transfers the product range of hoeing technology to the Amazone Group as of January 1st, 2019. As a manufacturer of agricultural and municipal machinery, Amazone widens its product portfolio with the addition of hoeing technology.

What working width or what hopper size is required to complete that job in the field - and in an appropriate time? How efficient is that machine per hour, per day or even over the entire season?

The Profihopper 1500 SmartLine self-propelled mower offers a professional, high performance machine with the ultimate in output. Thanks to a working speed of up to 10 km/h and a cutting width of 1.50 m, area outputs of up to 15,000 m² per hour are possible.

Designated the Profihopper 1250 SmartLine, Amazone will launch this brand new generation of high performance mower collectors at the 2018 GaLaBau Show in Nuremberg (Hall 9, Stand 121  and also outside in the open area).

For use in combination with either the gravity Cataya or the pneumatic Centaya harrow-mounted seed drills, Amazone now offers a new CombiDisc mounted compact disc harrow in a 3 m working width.

So as to be able to completely fulfil customers’ differing demands, Amazone further expands its Cayros plough programme with additional models and equipment options on offer for the 2018 season.
