The centralized hydraulic rams in the middle of the wheel and axle, symmetrical design for even load spreading.
We have 1Tonne hoppers, with wireless rugged tablets and up to 4 cameras connected wirelessly the tablet, our electronics have state of the art “machine learning” ability’s.
Worlds first patented modular metering system for different metering system and cassette options, adjustable aperture sizes.
Custom 60 x 12 s-tines. Built in ram spacers as part of the hydraulic rams for seed depth. Rodent and weather proof fully enclosed metering system.
Because of our wireless tablet and super simple calibration the boon drill is the easiest quickest seed drill in New Zealand!
What also makes our drill unique are all the adaptive cassettes we have developed and we will continue to develop new ones that will just slide into any existing Boon drill, one for example is our yubin tray which allows you to broadcast and drill seed out of the same hopper with full electric control with the tablet changing from broadcast to drill from the cab never leaving the seat and also lets you change from e.g. 20% broadcast and 80% drill to 50% broadcast to 50% drill all from the tablet.
Another great feature with the Boon drill is the electronics being on the drill and not in the monitor.
We have seen so many times with competitors drills if the communication wire from drill to tractor gets damaged it holts all drilling until it is repaired, not with the boon drill!
With our drill there is a back up touch screen on the drill to use in emergencies so you don't even need to use the tablet to drill in-case the tablet lets run over or lost.
Very well, although our tines are larger than other s-tine drills on the market they offer the same flexibility and extra strength where it matters.
The 60mm width helps the tines to track well on the hills and still offer great flexibility for rocks and contour following. We have designed our hoppers with tent baffles throughout the cradle with optional extra baffles for the hill country, because we can keep seed even across our hoppers we believe the weight distribution is better than air seeders that have all the weight in the middle which transfers across to one side when on steep angles.
Maintenance has been top of mind when developing the Boon drill, from easy access to replace hoses to sliding on and off rollers without gluing with our patented roller system, we have designed our axles to take remote grease lines so greasing is simple and you don't need to hunt around and find grease nipples. As far as seed drills go the Boon drill is very low maintenance.
When developing a new machine all design and developments are done with the technology’s available at that time, we have used all the state of the art technology’s available to develop the Boon drill compared to other brands where some developed theirs decades ago.
From 3d printing to machine learning and Ai to state of the art wireless rugged tablets all the technologies available from 2020 until now has been used to develop a machine for the customer in mind solving major problems farmers face.
There are some huge cost savings when choosing to buy a Boon drill over the competition. From larger s-tines to 1Tonne hoppers so you don't need to fill as much we have designed the Boon drill for the farmer so that buying a Boon drill means saving time and money with major benefits of the competition to lower maintenance with our enclosed metering system and heavy duty s-tines we have created a robust drill ready to handle the toughest New Zealand conditions.
When specking your Boon drill you can also add cameras in the metering system so you an seed material coming out of the rollers on the tablet, there’s a option for cameras in the hoppers and the metering systems.
Our drills are very competitive in the market, we are a similar price to other NZ seed drills but offer more advantages and technologies
