The new 6630 series Vertical Tillage System from Sunflower provides the vertical tillage residue management producers have been seeking but not finding…….. until now.
The unique Sunflower Saber blade slices through heavy GMO crop residue sizing and mixing it with soil. This speeds its decay and leaves the field level with the remaining material sized for the planter. The ratios of soil to residue are completely determined by the operating depth of the tool. An operating depth of two inches will produce a sized corn crop residue mixed with enough soil to anchor the residue to protect against erosion by wind or water. Increasing the operating dept will lift more soil and enhance the decomposition process

Unique Disc Gang Reel
The unique disc gang reel is located directly behind the disc gang and provides four important actions:
● Pulverizes soils and clods
● Thoroughly incorporates chemicals
● Vigorously mixes soil and residue
● Prevents lateral movement of the soil, eliminates ridging
|
Heavy Duty Disc Gang Assemblies
● 1 3/4" diameter industrial sizes gang shafts
● 20", 1.32" low concavity disc blades either 6 gauge or 1/4"
● 7 1/2" disc gang spacing with steel spools
● Self-aligning flangette disc gang bearings are triple sealed
|
Disc Gang Placement
The disc gang placement directs soil into the gang reels. The arrows show the initial direction of soil movement from the low angle (8 degree) gang angle. The gang reels located immediately behind the disc gangs, level the surface profile by preventing the lateral movement of soil that would create ridges and valleys.
|
Adjustable Disc Gang Depth
The gangs are adjustable from 1" below to 5" above the cultivator sweeps and adjustment is accomplished with either the manual or hydraulically adjustable feature.
(Optional hydraulic disc gang shown).
|
Spring Cushioned Disc Gangs
The disc gangs are equipped with heavy-duty spring cushioned mounts for protection against obstructions such as rocks and stumps. This allows the gangs to penetrate more uniformly and prevent gouging when crossing ditches or terraces.
|
Single Point Depth Control
The single point depth control is conveniently located at the front of the machine for easy access. Laser cut markings indicate the direction of movement for adjusting.
|
Walking Tandems
Walking tandems are available on all sections, allowing the machine to follow the ground contour precisely, maintaining a more consistent shank depth. The tandem beam pivots on a set of greaseable tapered roller bearings for smooth, long lasting service. Zerk equipped six bolt hubs and heavy-duty 2" slip in spindles feature triple lip seals.
|
Spring Cushion Shanks
With 26 inches of under frame clearance the 5/8 inch thick, 190 pound point load shanks on a 5 bar cultivator placement provide optimum trash flow.

Land Finisher Attachments
|
|
High Residue Six Row Spike Drag
The Six Row High Residue Spike Drag is designed for heavy residue conditions when using the 6000 Series Land Finisher. The Spike Drag consists of 3/4" x 16" round spikes. The longer spikes promote a smoother flow of residue, and the round design sheds heavy residue better than conventional square spikes. The combination of individual spike placement and the flexibility offered by individual bars make the 6-Row Spike Drag the #1 attachment in high residue conditions.
Available on 6221, 6333 and 6433.
|
|
Five Row Spike Drag
The Five Row Spike DRAG is regarded as our most maintenance free finishing attachment in low residue conditions. Equipped with 3/4" x 11" spikes, the flexible bars of the unit are designed to conform to very irregular terrain and the weight of the unit makes it aggressive enough to handle the toughest soil conditions. The 1 3/4" spike spacing provides additional incorporation and effectively completes the seed bed by breaking clods, leveling, smoothing and firming the soil.
Available on 6221, 6333 and 6433.
|
|
Three Row Spike Drag & Reel
The Three Row Spike and Reel combination features independence between spike and reel — in fact, each bar of the spike performs independently for maximum conformance to rough terrain. The heavy spike drag levels the soil in advance of the reel providing a smoother surface for the reel to run in. The 10 1/4” diameter reel features six high carbon spiraled blades, regreaseable bearings and no center shaft for better soil and residue handling capabilities. The aggressive action of this combination pulverizes the soil, provides superior leveling and enhances incorporation … leaving the seed bed in near perfect condition.
Available on 6221, 6333 and 6433.
|
|
Three Row Coil Tine and Reel
A Tine and Reel Finishing Attachment features a three row coil tine section that can be adjusted for the desired pitch. This attachment features height, tilt and spring loaded down pressure adjustments for various working
conditions. A smaller diameter reel revolves at a higher speed which provides a more aggressive digging action for incorporating and preparing the seed bed. The reel features six high carbon blades which spiral across the 10 1/4” diameter section. The reel is independent from the coil tine when in the field and can even be folded up and over when not in use.
Available on 6221, 6333 and 6433.
|
|
Three Row Coil Tine
Three Row Coil Tine Harrow features 3/8” x 16” tines on 7 1/2” centers, 2 1/2” spacing overall. Tines are spaced 15” between rows. The unique tine angle adjustment features a direct stop mechanism that eliminates wear prone linkages and pins. Each tine is individually replaceable and the unit is designed to allow all tines to pivot forward for protection when backing up. Every section is equipped with fully adjustable tension springs that allow desired down pressure settings to be accomplished.
Available on 6221, 6333 and 6433.
|
|
Three Row Spike & Chopping Reel
The chopper reels are designed with offset blade sections to provide maximum residue management with a minimum of vibration. The 16 inch diameter chopper reel is used in combination with a three row spike drag with 3/4 x 11 inch square spikes on 1 3/4 inch centers for maximum residue management and leveling of the soil surface profile in preparation for planting.
Available on 6221, 6333 and 6433.

Sunflower Saber Blade
This twenty-two inch diameter blade has twenty-five soil lifting flutes and designed with scallops to maintain an effective cutting edge acre after acre. No grinding or rolling necessary to maintain the edge of the Sunflower Saber blade.
|
|
Trunnion Mounted Bearings
eliminate wear between the bearings and the housing and ensure positive lubrication. As the C-Flex™ bearing standards move, the gang bearings have to constantly realign. On conventional bearing systems the bearing moves within the housing. This eventually leads to wear between the bearing and the housing... then bearing failure, because grease cannot get into the bearing. With the trunnion bearing there is never any wear between the bearing and the housing and there is always positive lubrication. The trunnion bearing features triple lip seals that cannot be damaged by daily greasing and metal washers that protect the seals from being damaged by stocks or material wrapping around the gang shaft.
|
|
C-Flex™ Bearing Standards
Standard equipment on every Sunflower disc, the C-Flex™ bearing standards absorb disc gang shock created by stumps, rocks and normal discing. This extends the bearing, spool and disc blade life. A bonus feature is the C-Flex's™ ability to clear residue better than conventional rigid standards. The C-Flex™ bearing standards also allow for easy maintenance of the gang assembly. Just remove one bolt and loosen another bolt at each C-Flex™ location and the entire gang can be dropped. All C-Flex™ standards remain in place to assure the gang will be in the correct position when replaced. Unlike competitive machines the trash bars are mounted to the back of the C-Flex™ Standards. This allows the trash bars to react with the gang and not come into contact with the spools or blades.
|
|
Single Point Depth Control
The single point depth control is conveniently located at the front of the machine for easy access. Large easily read markings indicate the direction
of movement for adjusting.
|
|
Front-mounted Gauge Wheels
A trademark on all flexible Sunflower discs is front-mounted gauge wheels. This important feature prevents the front gangs of the wing frame from gouging, buckling or cutting deeper than the other gangs, promoting a level, ridge or furrow free field. The heavy-duty gauge wheels feature a 5-bolt hub and 8.00 x 10 ply tire.
|
|
Hydraulic Self-leveling Hitch
Level the disc frame from front to rear with Sunflower's hydraulic self-leveling hitch. This positive adjustment maintains a pre-selected setting regardless of the tillage depth. It features heavy-duty compression springs on each side of the pivot to cushion both front and rear gangs, important when crossing ditches or rough terrain.
|
|
Maintenance-Free UHMW
Sunflower 6630s are equipped with maintenance-free lift and wing pivot systems. These systems pivot on UHMW polymer sleeves eliminating greasing in the lift, wing and gauge wheel pivots.
|
|
High Speed Conditioning Reels
The high speed conditioning reels break up clods and root crowns and thoroughly mix the residue with the soil.
The engagement pressure of the reel is easily adjusted.
|
|
Three Year Warranty
The 6630 series features superior engineering and rugged construction that will withstand the test of time. Simply stated, it's the finest vertical tillage equipment available. We're so confident, we place a three year limited warranty on the complete tool including the high speed conditioning reel.
