After releasing their very first overseeder in 1976, Vredo Dodewaard is now ready to introduce its fifth generation DZ5 overseeders.
In recent years, a great deal of hard work has gone into developing a successor to the current series. By continually listening to and observing with our customers in the Fine Turf sector, further efforts have been made to specialise in overseeding, and it has therefore been decided to extend the programme into a complete seeding line for the Fine Turf series (sport/golf/grass).
The current Compact and Super compact are the first to be renewed and will join the new generation as the DZ5 Single compact and DZ5 Super compact.
Vredo Single compact
A completely new machine based on the familiar double-disc principle, with a single row of discs, which delivers the seed into the soil for optimum germination thanks to the perfect incision. Compared to the current Compact series, the Single compact is lighter and shorter than the tractor, allowing users to equip a light tractor with a wider overseeder. The new machine has a disc diameter of 250 mm, which makes a finer cut, and a renewed roller of 220 mm diameter. This ensures perfect deposition and trapping of the expensive grass seed whilst leaving an even surface to be played on. In addition, the row spacing has been reduced from 7.5 cm to 7 cm.
Vredo Super compact
This series has also been extensively updated, whereby the discs are arranged in two rows and therefore have a row spacing of only 3.5 cm. In the further development of the Super compact, weight savings and a shorter connection to the tractor were achieved so that lighter tractors can be used. This has the advantage of equipping a wider machine to the same tractor. Using a lightweight tractor preserves good soil structure, and not only is the work more cost-effective, but the Super Compact can also be transported more efficiently because less loading space is required. The cost savings achieved by the purchase and use of a lighter and more economical tractor are therefore a fact.
Innovative platform: Vredo Full-Line-Seeding-Solutions
One of the reasons for the further development of these two series is to form a new platform through which various new innovative seeding techniques will find their way to the market. In addition, full-line seeding solutions are being developed that can be used on every conceivable seeding surface, such as outdoor seeding, hybrid sports fields and other seeding treatments for grass, herb and flower mixtures.
The new DZ5 generation from Vredo provides, in one fell swoop, a full line of professional overseeders suitable for all types of users, and the new techniques will be phased in after the Single compact and Super compact.
