Ridging scraper

The HAK ridging scraper is a specially designed implement that can be mounted behind the ridger or ridging disc. The main purpose of this ridging scraper is to create loose soil in the trench during ridge cultivation. By loosening the soil, the ridging scraper promotes better air and water permeability, which is essential for healthy plant growth. Another important benefit is that loosening the soil in the trench helps prevent drying. By improving the structure of the soil, water can be better retained, which is crucial for plant development.

Ridgers

HAK’s ridgers can be used to build up well-shaped potato ridges and effectively control weeds, among other things. The ridgers are easily adjusted to the desired width by loosening a bolt. The ridgers are equipped with a replaceable steel tip. HAK offers the ridgers in many different models and designs.

Ridging discs

The HAK ridging discs have two functions. First, it is suitable for building up potato and chicory ridges. When the ridging disc is used in combination with the front hoe, it is also suitable for controlling weeds. The soil hoeed off by the front hoe will be thrown back onto the ridge by the ridging disc with a rotating, weed-destroying movement. The shedding height is adjustable by adjusting the plastic scraper. This also keeps the disc clean. The disc is tiltable so that the disc can be adjusted to the back shape.

Multiweeder

The HAK multiweeder is a versatile implement for mechanical weed control and soil preparation in crops with row spacing from 6 to 20 cm. This innovative system combines a torsion weeder and a cradle weeder, effectively removing both superficial and deeper rooted weeds. The multiweeder can be mounted both between rows and across rows and is suitable for both flat-field tillage and cultivation on ridges. The adjustable pressure control with a spring mechanism allows the intensity of tillage to be precisely matched to soil conditions and crop sensitivity.

HAK leaf protectors and leaf protective shields for ridge cultivation provide protection from crop damage during hoeing and weed control. They scrape the top of the ridge, bring soil to the ridge and work weeds under. The height is easily adjustable via a spindle, with width adjustment from 55 to 150 millimeters. Stainless steel plates and backlash-free pivots ensure durability. For larger crops, HAK offers leaf lifters that smoothly guide the crop without damage. The leaf protectors are adjustable in width, slope, depth and length and feature double sealed bearings for long life, making them a robust and efficient tool for precision in crop care. The haulm guards have 3 functions:

  • tilling on the ridge by floating the leaf protectors 1 to 2 cm above the back;
  • Weed control on the top of the ridge by scraping it clean locally;
  • Disposal of excess soil.

Vibrating Tine Cultivator

The vibrating–tine cultivator loosens the hoeed soil, aerating it and uprooting weeds. It can also be used to obtain loose soil for the purpose of building up ridges. The width of the vibrating tine cultivator is infinitely adjustable and the tines are interchangeable. HAK supplies various versions for different cultivation methods and row distances.
