Samba Cambridge Rollers

Kubanzheldormash manufactures Samba Cambridge rollers for pre-sowing and post-sowing soil consolidation.

The rollers are designed to level the soil surface, break clods and soil crust, consolidate the seedbed and improve seed-to-soil contact. The sectional construction allows the machine to follow the field surface across its working width.

Applications of Cambridge Rollers

Samba rollers can be used before and after sowing depending on soil conditions and the cultivation system.

Pre-Sowing Rolling

Before sowing, rolling can help level the field, break larger soil clods and consolidate excessively loose soil. A more uniform surface can improve the operating conditions for subsequent seeding equipment and help maintain a consistent sowing depth.

Post-Sowing Rolling

After sowing, controlled soil consolidation can improve contact between the seed and surrounding soil. Under suitable conditions, this helps preserve moisture around the seed zone and creates more uniform conditions for germination.

The suitability and intensity of rolling should always be determined according to soil type, moisture content, crop and local agronomic practice.

Soil Levelling and Consolidation

The alternating rings of the Cambridge roller act on the soil surface as the machine moves through the field. The roller breaks clods and crust while consolidating the upper soil layer.

This combination of levelling and consolidation can be particularly useful after previous tillage operations have left an uneven or excessively loose seedbed.

Sectional Design

Samba Cambridge rollers use a sectional frame that allows the working sections to follow changes in ground level more effectively than a completely rigid structure.

This helps provide more consistent contact between the working rings and the soil across the working width.

Large-Diameter Working Rings

The working sections use toothed and profiled rings mounted on shafts. Their configuration is designed to provide effective soil contact while allowing the rings to rotate and move during operation.

The large diameter of the working elements helps reduce rolling resistance and contributes to stable operation in suitable field conditions.

Hydraulic Folding for Transport

The roller is connected to the tractor by a drawbar and hydraulic hoses. The hydraulic folding system allows the working sections to be transferred between operating and transport positions.

When folded, the machine has a reduced transport width for movement between fields and along suitable roads, subject to applicable transport regulations.

Advantages of Samba Cambridge Rollers

• sectional construction for ground-contour following;
• hydraulic transfer between working and transport positions;
• large-diameter working rings;
• robust agricultural frame;
• simple mechanical construction;
• manufacturer support and spare parts availability.

Samba 6 and Samba 9

Samba Cambridge rollers are available in different working widths for farms with different tractor power and field-capacity requirements.

The appropriate model should be selected according to tractor power, field size, soil conditions and required productivity.

Operating Conditions

Rolling quality depends strongly on soil moisture. Excessively wet soil can stick to the working elements and cause compaction beyond the desired level, while excessively dry soil may reduce the effectiveness of clod crushing and consolidation.

The machine should therefore be used only when field and soil conditions are appropriate for rolling.

Safe Operation

The tractor must not be reversed with the working sections lowered into the operating position unless this is specifically permitted by the operating manual.

Adjustment, inspection and maintenance must be carried out only when the machine is secured against unintended movement and the tractor engine is switched off.

When maintenance is performed beneath raised or folded sections, the mechanical safety locks specified by the manufacturer must be engaged.
