Bigger air carts need bigger conveyors to minimize fill times. This new 10 Series model uses a 40' long Convey-All conveyor with a 14" diameter tube and 24" wide belt.
This cart will weigh 150,000 lbs when fully loaded. When you’re pulling serious weight like this you need brakes that are up to the task. Standard electric over hydraulic brakes typically come with two calipers. We have added a second set of calibers for this air cart, which substantially improves the stopping power of this braking system.
The tank split configuration is designed to maximize acres per fill. By applying sound agronomic principles and established crop nutrient uptake ratios our tanks have been sized to empty synchronously, minimizing down time and maximizing efficiency.
The Optimizer tank has been upsized on the 1440 model to hold two 1-tonne seed totes.
A new front axle with 35k lb hubs is designed to carry the weight of the 1440 model. It is wider to accommodate the increased turning radius of the dual tires and has a lower pivot point. A new hose holder turns with the axle, resulting in a more horizontal flow of seed and fertilizer, optimizing capacity.
This cart uses dual 710/60R42 tires on the front axle with inflation pressures of 16 psi. The rear duals are 850/75R42 tires that are inflated to 19 psi.
