Brazil Ag machinery maker Stara unveils new planter-Estrela

FEATURES


Brazil agriculture machinery manufacturer Stara has unveiled a new planter which CEO  Átila Stapelbroek Trennepohl, says will  revolutionize planting in Brazil and beyond.

Named Estrela, the machine is the most comprehensive planter on the market. It is equipped with the Stara Integrated Terrain Copy System (it means the terrain copy is controlled on Topper), an easy and fast transport process, and in-furrow spraying directly from the factory, which by way, doesn’t need to be adapted to your equipment.

It is the only one with two fertilizer sections on the market. The planter has only seven lubrication points. For this reason, lubrication is not required during planting operations (there are no grease fittings).

Also, the piece of equipment provides you with a complete set of solutions and technologies to deliver higher yields to the crop field.

In addition, it is equipped with the DPS-E (Stara Precise Seed Placement – Electric) that ensures the best singulation of seeds on the market with seed compensation on turns.

Check out more information about our newest product:

STARA INTEGRATED TERRAIN COPY SYSTEM

It is an innovative concept from Stara. The system performs the triple terrain copy by providing the best plantability of the category. There is triple terrain copy with three articulation points.

Articulation of the chassis by pneumatic springs

The planter features a chassis with three modules: a central e two side ones with pneumatic springs that transfer the central module weight to the side modules. As a result, the cutting power of the planter is the same along the planter structure, and there is planting uniformity from end to end. The modules add 24° of articulation: 12º upwards and 12º downwards.

Matched row unit (row unit plus the chassis)

It is a new row unit from Stara that matches the individual articulation of the row unit (A) to the articulation of module (B). The system is an innovative feature from Stara to guarantee the best terrain copy.

Hydraulic control of the seed row unit pressure

It makes sure there is constant pressure in the seed row units. As a consequence, there are few trepidations, more stability, and seed placement is carried out with uniformity. The pressure adjustment of the matched row unit and the hydraulic control of the seed row unit pressure is on Topper.

THE BEST SEED DISTRIBUTION

Estrela features the new Stara seed meter that can provide you with a higher precise distribution. The DPS-E stands out because it is easy for cleaning and maintenance purposes, just as its interior access for seed disk and ejector changing. The system also features seven seed ejecting points and the well-known variable rate system.

All technology integrated into the DPS-E delivers the best seed singulation on the market. In addition to all the features mentioned above, it adds the seed rate compensation on turns. The advantage is that the seed population and the internal and external row unit spacing are the same, resulting in high distribution quality, regardless of the turn angle. Precision of 3.5 seed/meter.

STARA IN-FURROW SPRAYING

Estrela is equipped with the in-furrow spraying factory-installed. NO NEED FOR ADAPTATIONS. The spraying tank features three layers. The central thermal layer is isolated by two other layers built in polyethylene. Therefore, the thermal efficiency of the hopper is provided during its lifespan.

As a result, there is higher protection against the heat and brightness, and at the same time, it ensures the biological activity of the products and the cleaning process becomes easier.

It also adds an automatic adjustment of the rate according to the equipment speed, resulting in quality and uniform spraying. Not to mention the mixing system. This feature keeps the solution constantly moving in the tank.

The automatic shut-off is applied along the three sections, with a module, to integrate the nozzle bracket to the row unit, the anti-drip system integrated, and protection against impacts.

THE MOST PRACTICAL TRANSPORT SYSTEM ON THE MARKET

Estrela is really fast to be folded. Its sections are folded in less than one minute. The transport width of Estrela is 3.20 m when the chassis is 21-25 and 4.15 m when the chassis is 27-33. Additionally, the transport becomes easier among fields and farms.

Estrela has got every comfort and convenience Stara can provide you with. They add optimum potential planting needs by the best planter on the market.

One of the special features is ConectaTelemetria Stara, the Stara monitoring system, and a technology package that deliver easier operations and higher yields, Topper 5500, The planter also comprises the Control System, the Row-by-Row Shut-Off System, the Zero Crop Damage, and Syncro.
