e-drill
Seeder | Pneumatic mounted seed drill
Time pressure in the autumn and spring ask for an efficient and versatile seed drill combination, like the Kverneland e-drill.
This integrated seed drill is efficient, precise and operator-friendly.
The advantages of this Pneumatic mounted seed drill
- Reduced lifting power requirement
- Simple and reliable calibration with ELDOS
- Simple and independent depth adjustment
- Precise seed placement by CX-II coulters
Description
The range of Kverneland e-drill as integrated power harrow mounted seed drills allow active seedbed preparation, consolidation and precise seed placement in one pass. The proven concept and clear design of the e-drill maxi and e-drill compact, together with the high level of incorporated intelligent technology ensure precise and reliable performance.
With the innovative pneumatic seed drill, the operator has maximum ease of use, from set-up and filling to operation and transport. The seed hopper is mounted directly on the three-point linkage of the Kverneland power harrow for a close centre of gravity and, therefore, reducing the requirement for lifting power.
Careful seedbed preparation and precise sowing for sustainability and high yields
Proper soil preparation and precise sowing at the right time are critical factors for achieving high yields.
Seedbed preparation, structure, and fertility
A well-prepared seedbed is essential for an even seed emergence and strong crop development. Targeting a weatherproof seedbed helps prevent soil erosion and capping after heavy rainfall. Minimizing passes and wheeling effects during soil preparation preserves soil structure and ensures strong seed-to-soil contact, which supports robust root development and efficient nutrient supply.
Soil humus content is a key factor in maintaining healthy soil life. Humus enhances biological activity, improves pore distribution, and contributes to CO₂ binding, which in turn boosts air circulation, heat balance, and water storage capacity. Optimizing these factors ensures a fertile, resilient soil environment that supports sustainable crop growth and maximizes long-term yield potential.
Precise sowing with Kverneland CX-II coulter
The Kverneland CX-II coulter of the e-drill is precise, and very easy to set up. It guarantees smooth running and requires less power to pull and less coulter pressure to reach a constant seeding depth of up to 6cm. With the clamped Kverneland CX-II coulter, farmers have the freedom to select the row spacing, depth control, and press wheel configuration that delivers the best results for their crop, climate, and management system, ensuring precision, efficiency, and consistent yields.
Choosing the right seed row spacing is a key decision for every farmer, influenced by local yield potential, crop variety, and harvest objectives. From the factory, Kverneland offers at the e-drill a pre-setting of either 12.5cm, 15.0cm or 25cm with CX-II coulters staggered in two rows.
Sowing time
As farms grow and weather becomes more extreme, seeding time frames are narrowing. Still, correct timing maximizes germination success and early crop development, which directly impacts yield potential. Seedbed preparation and seeding in one pass with the power-harrow mounted Kverneland e-drill may relieve this pressure.

Kverneland Sync – The Implement Gateway
Always Connected – Easy and Direct
With Kverneland Sync, your seeder is continuously connected to Kverneland’s online services. Designed for efficiency and ease, Kverneland Sync represents a significant advancement in agricultural connectivity and productivity. Seamlessly integrate the ISOBUS seed drill with digital tools, empowering you to maximise profitability, growth, and success through real-time data analysis and performance measurement on working speed and seeds/m².
Remote Service – Minimize Downtime
Kverneland Sync offers remote diagnostics, allowing technicians to quickly analyze and address electronic issues on your seeder from a distance via the Kverneland ServiceCentre. This feature helps to minimize downtime in the event of a breakdown. See how it works: Always connected
Task Management – Enhance Reporting and Transparency
Kverneland Sync provides all relevant data in IsoMatch FarmCentre, our integrated farm management platform, enabling real-time tracking, performance measurement, and secure data storage. This is especially useful for machine cooperatives, streamlining logistics and invoicing. Additionally, Kverneland Sync enables geofencing to help protect your seeder against theft, with an accumulator that allows you to locate your planter even when it’s not connected to a tractor.
- ELDOS is electric driven by e-bas and e-com, the e-com edition is fully ISOBUS compatible, e-bas works as stand alone controlled system.
- GEOCONTROL by GPS signal is possible which avoids double seeding.
- Special sensors ensure functionality from the tractor cab.
- Five standard rotors are delivered: for fine and large seeds or fertiliser.
- The exchange of the rotors is quickly and easily done without any tools.
- Application rates from 1 to 400kg/ha are possible (depending on working speed and width).
- The metering device is always easily accessible.
Calibration
- Very simple calibration test due to the separate seed guidance.
- A remote control allows the driver to operate the calibration process at the metering device.
- No gear has to be adjusted. The driver simply enters the desired values into the terminal, presses one button to start at the metering device and that’s it.
- The calibration is done automatically.
- A calibration flap with an integrated gate prevents any seed from dropping into the hose.
Flexibility is key!
The coulterbar can be easily coupled and uncoupled with a coupling hook similar to the front loader coupling. Track markers are attached to the power harrow. Therefore, the power harrow is ready for solo operation within short time. The coulterbar is attached with the Euro-Connection directly to the roller frame and can quickly and easily be hitched thanks to the readily accessible hydraulic and electronic interface.
The e-drill is exclusively designed to be combined with Kverneland power harrows.
- The CX-II disc coulter from Kverneland not only guarantees smoother running but also exact seed placement.
- The flatter cutting angle of only 5.4° of the steel disc requires less pulling power to reach a constant seeding depth of up to 6cm.
- Due to the combination of the steel disc with a diameter of 325mm and the flexible plastic disc, there is no need for independent scrapers, saving the cost for expensive wearing parts. In addition the coulter is completely maintenance-free!
- Up to 50kg coulter pressure can be achieved by a pre-loaded spring. Safe operation is ensured when working with high working speeds and high quantities of plant residues on the soil surface.
- An inter-row coulter spacing of 445mm for maximum clearance and the following press wheel (standard equipment) ensure an optimum seed/soil contact in all conditions.
- The press wheels can be set in fixed, floating of lifted position in order to be able to adapt quickly to changing weather, soil or working conditions.
- The CX-II coulter is also available as light edition without press wheel which reduces the weight and length of the coulterbar. This will allow to operate the seeding combination also with lower lifting capacity of the tractor.
- The metering device ELDOS accurately measures the required volume of seed by the distinctive rotor and discharges it into the seed injector where is is mixed with the air stream and then conveyed through the diffusor tube and the seed delivery hoses to the coulters.
- The distribution head is mounted in a protected position inside the seed hopper.
For the electronic control of the e-drill, a whole range of steering systems is available
