TMA4 – Avadex Applicator

Horstine TMA4 offers growers a precision applicator for Avadex, slug pellets and other granular chemicals over the 12m width. Utilising Horstine’s individual metering system, each broadcast outlet is fed by its own metering rotor guaranteeing consistent application from each outlet. The metering system is controlled by a Horstine Wizard automatic rate controller, ensuring application rates are always correct regardless of forward speed. A 12 meter manually folding boom comes as standard and can be upgraded to a hydraulic folding system if required. View Brochure

Key Features

Individual Metering

Horstine’s precision metering system provides extremely accurate application, with each product outlet being fed by its own individual rotor. This system of metering guarantees application accuracy across the full 12m width of the boom.

Easy Setup & Calibration

Calibration is a quick and simple process. Collect the product at the outlet to confirm application is consistent across every outlet. Weigh the total product collected and input this figure into the rate controller and calibration is complete.

Auto Rate Control

The Horstine Wizard application controller is fitted to compensate for changes in forward speed while maintaining the correct application rate. Wizard also allows the application rate to be changed quickly, while providing area and machine monitoring. (Variable Rate option available).

Pneumatic Delivery

TMA4 uses a high capacity hydraulically driven fan to deliver product to the outlet, mounted at 1.5m spacings. On the trailed version of the TMA4 a petrol driven engine powers the same fan.
