New Rice Transplanter by Kubota

There are three types of Kubota rice transplanter- NSP-4W (4 planting rows), NSPU-68C (6 planting rows), NSD8 (8 planting rows).

Kubota Ride-on Type- 8 row Diesel Rice Transplanter

Important Features:
- High-Output Diesel Engine
- Low Fuel Consumption, Low Noise, High Durability

Exceptionally stable, the Kubota E-TVCS Combustion Method features an outstanding combustion performance and superb fuel efficiency along with low noise and vibration.

Without a complex electrical system while featuring a rigid structure, outstanding durability, and enhanced service life, the diesel engine is less vulnerable to possible breakdowns.

The E-TVCS is a sub-chamber combustion method with exceptionally low noise. Vibration from the smoothly running 3-cylinder diesel engine is also remarkably low. This combination of low noise and vibration contributes to the reduction of operator fatigue even after many hours on-the-job.

- 4-Wheel Independent Suspension
- Horizontal Control Mechanism
- Enhanced Speed and Efficiency of Transplanting

The incorporation of innovative Kubota technology along with the experience gained through a long, successful history in the field makes possible the neat and exceptionally precise transplanting of seedlings promising that yield will be of the maximum possible quantity and quality to ensure superior operational profitability.

Rotary Planting Method With exceptional precision, the Kubota Rotary Planting Arm operates as agilely and as delicately as a human hand. In fact, comprehensive design ensures that seedlings are reliably and accurately planted so as to make maximum effective use of the growing area.

The Two Transplanting Claws securely pick up and transplant two seedlings at a time as the Rotary Transplanting Arm makes a turn. The resulting high-speed, exceptionally precise transplanting not only acts to minimize the possibility of seedling damage, but also to encourage healthy growth.

- Adjustable Transplanting Factors

Such factors as Seedling Taking Quantity along with Hill Space, Number of Hills, and Planting Depth are all adjustable to fit cultivation modality and field conditions.

To make the best possible usage of cultivation modality and field conditions, Hill Space as well as Number of Hills can be regulated in five stages.
- Compact, Lightweight Body Design
- High Ground Clearance
- Easy Turning
- Individual Row Clutch Auto Reset
- Speed and Directional Control with the HST Lever
- Power Steering
- Individual Row Clutch Lever

The Individual Row Clutch Levers located within easy reach of the operator are simply and easily engaged or disengaged. As a result, transplanting is smoothly completed without loss even when operations take place in an irregularly-formed field.
- Twin-Mode Marker

Once the switch is set to the “AUTO” position, the Twin Mode Marker automatically shows if the Transplanting Unit is lowered after completing a turn. The operator is able to concentrateon the job-at-hand without having to worry about whether or not the Twin Mode Marker is properly shown.
- Multifunctional Lever

A single Lever moves the Transplanting Unit “Up” or “Down, engages or disengages the Transplanting Clutch, and sets the Twin Mode Marker “ON” or “OFF” Without the need to use a variety of levers, the operator is able to concentrate on maintaining the efficiency of the operational performance.
- Transplanting Unit Raising Mechanism

When the HST Lever is shifted to “Reverse” position, the Transplanting Claws automatically stop and the Transplanting Unit is automatically raised. This function is particularly convenient when backing up while turning or during switchback transplanting operations.
- Easy Maintenance
- Ample Operating Space
- Seedling Platform Extension

The Seedling Platform Extension permits carrying 2.2 more Seedling Mats. This reduces the frequency of replenishing seedlings so that operations continue longer without interruption and thereby further contribute to operational efficiency.
- Standby Seedling Racks Mechanism

The Standby Seedling Racks make it possible to rapidly replenish seedlings and thereby enhance operational efficiency.
- Micro-Computer Self-Analysis

Operational status is constantly monitored and diagnosed so that should any abnormality occur it is indicated by the appropriate figures.
