Twerk Fertilizer Spreaders
Kubanzheldormash manufactures Twerk fertilizer spreaders for the surface application of dry granular and crystalline mineral fertilizers.
The range includes single-disc and twin-disc configurations designed for farms with different working-width, application-rate and tractor requirements.
Uniform Fertilizer Application
Accurate fertilizer distribution is important both for crop nutrition and for controlling input costs. Uneven spreading can result in overlapping application zones, under-fertilized areas and unnecessary fertilizer consumption.
Twerk spreaders are designed to provide controlled distribution across the selected working width. The application rate and spreading pattern can be adjusted according to fertilizer characteristics and field conditions.
Single-Disc Twerk-1
The Twerk-1 single-disc spreader is designed for surface application of solid mineral fertilizers and can be used for fertilizing arable crops, pastures and meadows.
The single-disc arrangement provides a simple mechanical design with straightforward adjustment and maintenance.
Twin-Disc Twerk-2
The Twerk-2 uses two spreading discs to provide a greater potential working width and high field capacity.
For field-edge application, fertilizer supply to one disc can be switched off. This allows fertilizer to be applied closer to the field boundary while reducing unnecessary spreading beyond the cultivated area.
Adjustable Application
The spreader design allows the operator to adjust fertilizer flow and working width according to the selected operating mode.
Depending on the model and configuration, fertilizer flow control can be mechanical or hydraulic.
Corrosion-Resistant Spreading Components
Mineral fertilizers can be highly corrosive. For this reason, the main spreading components are manufactured from corrosion-resistant materials, while painted structural components receive a protective coating.
Regular cleaning after operation remains essential for maintaining the condition and service life of the spreader.

Choosing a Fertilizer Spreader
When selecting a spreader, it is important to consider more than hopper capacity. The required working width, fertilizer type, application rate, tractor class, PTO parameters, field size and expected productivity should all be taken into account.
Working Width
A greater working width can increase field capacity, but the actual spreading pattern depends on the physical characteristics of the fertilizer, disc settings and operating conditions.
Application Rate
The required fertilizer application rate should be set according to the agronomic task and calibrated for the fertilizer being used.
Fertilizer Characteristics
Granule size, density, moisture content and flow characteristics can affect spreading behaviour. Calibration should therefore be checked whenever the fertilizer type or operating conditions change.
Maintenance
After operation, fertilizer residues should be removed from the hopper and spreading mechanism. Components exposed to fertilizer should be cleaned regularly to reduce corrosion and prevent deposits from affecting adjustment mechanisms.
The gearbox, PTO shaft, bearings, fasteners and adjustment mechanisms should be inspected according to the maintenance schedule specified in the operating documentation.
Additional Applications
Depending on the selected configuration and material characteristics, Twerk spreaders may also be suitable for distributing certain dry bulk materials used in municipal applications. Suitability for a particular material should be confirmed with the manufacturer before operation.
