Vaderstad Tempo F

Precision that redefines planting efficiency

The Vaderstad Tempo F is a trailed precision planter engineered for those who refuse to choose between speed and seedling placement accuracy. Unlike conventional planters that suffer from depth inconsistency at higher speeds, the Tempo F utilizes the PowerShoot metering system. By using positive air pressure to ‘shoot’ the seed into the furrow, it eliminates bounce and ensures perfect spacing even at speeds exceeding 15 km/h.

Key Advantages

• Transport Efficiency: The F-model features a specialized chassis design with a transport width of just 3 meters, making it highly maneuverable between fields, which is essential for operations with fragmented land plots.
• The PowerShoot Technology: Seed is delivered to the disc through a vacuum-fed channel with active force, ensuring precise placement regardless of field vibrations or uneven terrain.
• Dynamic Adjustability: Hydraulic downforce adjustment is controlled directly from the cab, allowing the operator to react to soil density changes instantly without stopping the tractor.

Who is this machine for?

The Tempo F is the optimal choice for large-scale farming operations and agro-holdings focused on intensive production. It excels when large acreages need to be planted within tight windows. If your priority is to capture the ideal moisture window and complete planting without sacrificing stand establishment density, this machine is the industry standard.

Operational considerations

It is important to note that the Tempo F is a high-performance, precision-dependent tool. It requires well-prepared seedbeds to reach its peak potential. On heavy, cloddy ground or unmanaged stubble, the depth control accuracy can be compromised. Furthermore, the Vaderstad E-Control system requires an operator comfortable with ISOBUS integration. This is a "smart" planter; while it automates much of the process, it demands thorough sensor calibration prior to entering the field.
