Agricultural tillers are machines designed for soil cultivation, primarily used to break up and mix the soil. These machines consist of a robust frame that supports a rotor with tines (or blades), and they are connected to the tractor via a three-point hitch. The tractor provides the necessary power to the tiller through the PTO (Power Take-Off) shaft, while a worm gear transmission transfers this power to the rotor, causing it to rotate and drive the tines.
The tines, arranged on flanges mounted on the rotor, rotate to break up the soil, thus preparing the ground for sowing. The machine’s robust structure is designed to withstand the stresses during operation, ensuring durability and reliability. The rotor is the main part of the tiller, equipped with flanges holding the tines, and it represents the key element in the soil cultivation process.
