70 Acres Per Hour.
Cut, Weed, Mix at Incredible Speeds.
|
|
Control Residue
The Pro-Till® shreds residue at speeds over 10 mph, up to three times the speed of traditional cultivators, while ensuring uniform distribution of residue to eliminate problems such as uneven and delayed emergence, hair pinning, erosion and seeder/planter plugging.
|
|
Level Ruts, Instantly
Today’s heavy tractors, trucks and sprayers, create deep, and compacted ruts that restrict yields and damage expensive equipment, The Degelman Pro-Till® has just the right amount of dirt carrying capacity to level almost any field in one pass, making Pro-Till® your single spring and fall solution to tillage needs.
|
|
Prepare Your Seedbed Fast.
Pro-Till’s cultivation design creates a superior field finish in one pass by combining an aggressive till action with an exclusive furrow roller system. The shallow high-speed discs cut and mix residue to ensure a healthy soil structure. The ridged shape of the rollers crushes clods and creates a corrugated soil profile and an ideal seedbed.
|
|
Self-Contour Frame
Degelman’s self-contour frame allows Pro-Till® to follow the curvature of varying terrains while maintaining a consistent depth. The independent wing sections and a shallow floating frame give Pro-Till® the flexibility to handle steep inclines or downward slopes. This floating, self-contouring design, coupled with Pro-Till’s independent discs help produce a flawless, uniform field.
|
 |
|
Pro-Till® Compact disc vs. Conventional long frame
Pro-Till® floating self contour technology and short front to back distance virtually eliminates tracking or sliding when turning.
|
|
Degelman Tested
Degelman equipment is tested to the limit in severe operating conditions. Any unforeseen problems were analyzed and further improved. As a result of years of development and field testing Pro-Till® is a piece of equipment without compromise.
|
Roll Forward Frame
A unique benefit of the Pro-Till® cultivator is the roll forward frame design which gives operators the ability to completely rotate the frame and rear disc sections off the ground, making it easy to maneuver out of trouble in wet conditions. This design, together with the impressive weight distributions of the four oversized high flotation tires, lets operator back up, drive forward, unplug, or simply drive away from any difficulty.
|
Weight is Inherent in the Overbuilt Frame
Other machines require extra weight stacks, but the 32,000 lb. Pro-Till® cultivator carries this weight in the frame where it should be. As the heavy weight in the industry, the Pro-Till® has the downward force to handle the most extreme soil and trash conditions.
|
|
Independent Discs
The Pro-Till® disc system replaces the traditional gang with independent disc arms that slice and mix soil at speeds never before achieved. This high speed, aggressive tillage, combined with more room between the discs, maximizes trash flow and eliminates plugging.
|
Maximum Trash Flow
Pro-Till® discs have a shallow face to eliminate compaction layers, and the high tensile strength steel arms provide maximum flow through with three times the spring back of normal mild steel.
|
Rubber Suspension
Pro-Till® disc arms are preloaded using four natural rubber spring elements that allow the disc to skate over severe stones, yet perfectly follow the contours of the land. When a stone is encountered, the rubber elements compress automatically dampening the impact and providing protection while immediately springing the disc back into operation.

Cage Roller Field Finish
In dry, non-sticking soil conditions, the Degelman cage roller ensures any clumps that may be left behind are disintegrated, providing an even, accessible seedbed with moderate consolidation.
|
|
Debris Management
In dry, non-sticking soil conditions, the Degelman cage roller ensures any clumps that may be left behind are disintegrated, providing an even, accessible seedbed with moderate consolidation.
|
Helical Shafts
The helical solid shafts are the largest in the industry; at 1.5” in diameter they provide superior protection against rocks and any other debris that may pose a threat in the field.
|
|
Exclusive Furrow Rollers
Pro-Till’s exclusive Otico rollers are an excellent all-around packer with a unique corrugated ridge profile, which leaves a field finish designed to manage moisture and prevent soil erosion. Pro-Till’s furrow rollers out-perform any typical cage roller, regardless of soil type or soil conditions. Proven effective in clay, sand, gumbo, and rocky soil, the furrow roller performs especially well in wet fields. Unlike a cage roller, the furrow roller is designed to shed soil to prevent plugging and reduce maintenance. |
Semi-Pneumatic Technology
A special semi-pneumatic technology is integrated into the Pro-Till® rollers making them work well in rocky soils and more resistant to wet conditions. Designed by OTICO of France, these exclusive rubber rollers are formulated from special rubber compounds. Uniquely molded over a high strength steel core, they are also hollow giving them the ability to flex each turn, partly absorb shock from stones and hard conditions, and also helps shed sticky soils with every revolution.

Maintenance Free Roller Bearings
Proven through years of research, development and rigorous testing in both lab and field, the advanced sealing technology ensures optimal performance for the customer. TILLXTREME™ offers a one of a kind, exclusive high-performance solution designed to eliminate the need for relubrication, saving precious hours needed for field work. PEER's patented seal design provides significantly improved contamination exclusion than the conventional triple lip seal design. PEER's TILLXTREME™ engineered assemblies are more reliable, maintenance-free, and simplify installation. As an environmentally friendly solution, there is no grease purge to contaminate the soil. |
Increased Water Absorption
These rollers are an excellent all-around roller suitable for any types of soil conditions and offer very good consolidation. The micro-ridge shape of the Pro-Till® rollers allow water to be stored in the corrugated valleys, driven to the lower soil layers and stored in a uniform way. Proper soil consolidation is critical to allow water stored in deep soil layers to flow.
|
|
Faster Germination
Corrugated rollers help seeds to germinate and grow in the shortest possible time by creating a firm field finish. The compact soil improves the soil to seed/root contact which enables an efficient transfer of nutrients. It also preserves moisture, which is especially important during dry years.
|
|
Effective Erosion Control
The Pro-Till® rollers are key to protecting soil against heavy rainfalls and high winds. The rollers consolidate the soil, providing valleys for water storage and creating ridges to reduce wind and water erosion.
 |
|
Enriched Soil Structure
After residue has been cut and mixed, our exclusive corrugated rollers finish the field to perfection. The hollow corrugated rubber design sheds soil, breaks up the larger clods and consolidates the soil to bring fine earth in contact with residue to optimize decomposition.
|
|
Simple. Strong. Clean.
The minimalist approach to these scrapers leave long arms which create great trash flow. The scrapers are easy to adjust, easy to clean and are removed with the pull of a pin. The Hardox wear plates are the same as those used in mining, construction, quarries and excavation and are 8 x more abrasion resistant to that of mild steel.
|
|
Maintenance Free Depth Control
Adjusting the front and rear cutting depth on Pro-Till® is easy and accurate. Mechanical plates swivel in or out to adjust cutting depth in 1/2 inch intervals, making this a simple, organized and reliable system.
|
|
