Vaderstad, Sweden - Vaderstad Holding AB., a farm machinery manufacturer, has introduced the next generation of its popular seed drills — the Spirit 400–900C/S and Inspire 1200C/S — featuring a suite of upgrades designed to enhance precision, performance, and ease of operation.
At the core of the redesign is TriForce II, Vaderstad’s new patented seed coulter suspension technology. This innovation enables each coulter to follow the contours of the field with exceptional accuracy, ensuring consistent seeding depth even in uneven or stressed soil conditions. The upgraded system now allows for up to 120 kg of coulter pressure, a significant increase from the 80 kg offered in the previous generation.
Mr. Andy Gamble, Managing Director of Vaderstad UK, “TriForce II seed coulter rubber suspension with a unique triangular beam helps it handle the movements in field, while maintaining its set pressure to the ground. This a step forward regarding seed depth precision, compared to conventional methods in the double-disc seed drill segment. The increased coulter pressure allows the drills to perform at peak levels across a wider range of soil conditions while delivering higher suspension capacity.”
Other key updates include a new following harrow option, hydraulic depth control that can be adjusted directly from the tractor cab, and an overall refinement of the coulter design for improved durability and performance.
With these enhancements, the Spirit and Inspire series continue to position Vaderstad at the forefront of precision seeding technology — combining innovation, field efficiency, and operator comfort for the next generation of farmers.
