Orthman is proud to introduce the all-new 1tRIPr AR (automatic reset). The 1tRIPr AR preplant tillage and precision nutrient placement tool combines proven strip-till soil management, precision nutrient placement, and seedbed preparation in a single pass to provide unprecedented field efficiency. The innovative shank and tail design allows the row unit to be tripped by underground obstructions and automatically reset to reduce downtime and protect row unit components. Like it’s predecessor 1tRIPr, the 1tRIPr AR combines multiple operations to meet all preplant objectives while conserving moisture, soil, time, and money.

Preplant Tillage and Precision Nutrient Placement

   

Row Unit Standard Equipment:

     
  • The innovative automatic reset trip-tail mechanism alleviates the worry of underground obstructions. Rocks, trees, and etc. trip the tail section of the row unit to protect row unit components.
  • Parallel linkage and four adjustable down springs allow vertical travel and individual row unit down pressure adjustment.
  • A wrap around mount and proven Orthman toolbar designs provide a long lasting row unit foundation.
  • Either a 22” or 24” depth band coulter provides consistent row unit tooling depth while the coulter cuts surface and subsurface residue to reduce hairpinning and aid in residue decomposition.
  • Pin adjusted 16” notched trash openers reduce field residue directly behind the depth band coulter prior to the arrival or rearward tooling.
  • The redesigned 1” x 4” tillage shank assembly shatters root zone compaction to increase soil porosity, reduce run-off, and allow root systems to utilize deeper soil moisture and nutrients.
  • Tillage shank fertilizer tube(s) allow precision fertilizer placement at two depths, if desired, to provide the crop with timely fertilizer access to maximize development from germination through maturity.
  • Fully adjustable dual wavy coulters “lift and pinch” action incorporates field residue, decreases soil variability, firms, and completes the seedbed.
  • The row unit tail can be outfitted with an optional rolling basket to reduce clod size, retain existing moisture, firm, and complete an optimum seedbed.
   
   

Optional Equipment:

     
 
  • Orthman’s folding, stacking, or rigid toolbars provide various row spacing and size configurations.
  • Row Markers allow the 1tRIPr AR to be utilized as a stand alone post harvest tillage and fertilization tool.
  • Bar stands provide implement stability when in storage.
  • Lift Assist Wheels provide the tractor with additional lift capacity.
  • Gauge Wheels allow for precise adjustment of bar height and alleviate the tractor having to carry implement.
