True-Tandem Tillage Tools

The True-Tandem Advantage

The True-Tandem frame design provides a distinct advantage over traditional double-offset frame designs. True-Tandem is symmetrical with an equal 18 degree gang angle and an equal number of blades on each side of the machine. This provides uniform pulling pressures and excellent stability in the field. The True-Tandem design also ensures that soil and residue will be moved uniformly across the full working width.

Residue Burial

Blade size, blade concavity, depth and ground speed affect how "black" the surface looks. This chart compares the True-Tandem offering when operated in similar conditions and within their optimal settings.

Surface Levelness

Blade size, depth, spacing, type (wavy or smooth) and rear attachments affect surface levelness. This chart compares the True-Tandem offering when operated in similar conditions and within their optimal settings range.

Residue Cutting

Blade spacing and sharpness affects the residue lengths left by a True-Tandem Vertical Tillage tool or Disk Harrow. The chart compares the residue lengths left by each of the True-Tandem series tools when operated in similar conditions and optimal settings range.

Horsepower Requirements

Blade depth, concavity, and ground speed affect the horsepower requirements. This chart compares the minimum and maximum horsepower requirements of the True-Tandem family when operated in similar conditions and optimal settings range.

Acres Per Hour

Productivity is affected by machine size and ground speed. This chart compares the possible productivity levels of the True-Tandem offering at optimal ground speeds and 85% efficiency.
