SKEN Row Crop Cultivator with rigid, manually or hydraulically foldable frame
SKEN models make up our proposition for economical mechanical weed control, not only by cutting them but are also vibrating them. They are also aerating the soil and improving the drainage without disturbing the soil structure. The frame allows vertical flex and allows gangs to follow soil contours while they stay rigid side-to side even when working on curved plant lines or developed crops. Depending on the type of soil and the developing stage of the crop, a broad choice of accessories are available.

SKEN
The tool gangs are attached to the main frame by parallel linkage assemblies that consistently keep each sweep moving independently at its desired depth in uneven terrain and independently of any fluctuations of the tractor. A gauge jockey wheel on each tool gang is responsible for accurate depth control.
