Single Disc Drill

The first new drill technology in 20 years!


No-till, minimum till or conventional till: The Amity Single Disc Drill works equally well in all three conditions. Down pressure adjustment on the openers from the tractor cab eliminates the need for opener adjustments. The primary disadvantages of no-till with other single disc designs - hair pinning and sidewall compaction simply do not occur with the Amity Single Disc Drill.

The Single Disc Drill does not have a gauge wheel running next to the disc. This allows for the soil to lift and flow back against the packer to be re-leveled over the seed furrow.

The Amity patented "opposing single discs" lift and displace the soil between the two narrow 6-inch rows. The loosened soil coming off of the twin discs, flows back against the trailing packer which re-levels and firms the soil over the seed rows. This soil displacement eliminates sidewall compaction, hair pinning, and open seed furrows while leaving a 6-inch blackened strip to encourage soil warming.

Right away, you'll notice the details that make the Single Dis Drill easier to operate and maintain, including:

  • One rank seed openers
  • Single point down pressure control
  • On-the-go down pressure adjustment
  • No springs on seed openers
  • Low hp requirements
  • Superior seed placement, even at high speeds
  • Option to band NH3 in mid-row band
  • Easy depth control adjustments
  • Simple daily maintenance (two 25 hour grease zerks per transport tandem
  • Annual greasing of bearings on all discs and packer hubs
