Ingersoll SoilRazor® and SoilRazor® VT
Ingersoll’s SoilRazor discs represent a solid innovation that has quickly spread as the leading standard for worldwide use. SoilRazor blades are crafted from Ingersoll’s pure professional grade steel, made from virgin iron ore taconite and created with a proprietary formula. These unique properties provide long-lasting performance and durability, and SoilRazor’s innovative saw-tooth edge is ideal for slicing and mixing the toughest residue and for penetrating difficult soil conditions. While they perform, SoilRazor blades maintain their cutting edge throughout their working life, continuing to save fuel, manage residue and prepare the seedbed. See an animated video on the website showing the unique way these blades maintain their cutting ability. SoilRazor discs are available in two distinct styles as the SoilRazor CT and SoilRazor VT to match preferred tillage practices, and especially well-suited for conservation tillage.

AerWay® Close Coupled Tandem (CCT)
AerWay® CCT (Close Coupled Tandem) delivers deep vertical tillage. The offset double roller system, mulches and blends residue with soil. Equipped with ShatterTines®, it vertically vents the soil, shattering and loosens compaction, resulting in a fractured soil profile. This allows for better moisture retention and movement through the soil profile, improves air movement allowing for faster soil warm-up in the spring and maintains soil structure and dramatically improving tilth. The AerWay CCT is more than a residue management implement, it helps build healthier soils. The CCT has adjustable gang angles for a variety of field conditions, maintenance free bearings and is offered in working widths of 10-40 feet.

Mandako Twister
The Mandako Twister is #1 when it comes to versatility in vertical tillage. With the ability to hydraulically adjust the coulter angle from the tractor cab, you choose the finish you want in your field. Run the coulters straight for minimum tillage that slices residue and fractures the soil below the blades in preparation for planting. This leaves the residue on top to protect the soil from erosion. “Twist” the blades to run at full angle and you have a tool that will incorporate heavy residue, fertilizer and chemical. At 700 pounds-per-foot, the Twister has the weight to keep the coulters in the ground.
