The Pöttinger Vitasem 402 A is a precision seed drill manufactured by Pöttinger, an established maker of agricultural machinery. Seed drills are used to sow crops at controlled depths and spacing, enabling uniform germination and optimised plant density across large field areas. This model combines drilling capability with integrated soil preparation and finishing equipment.
This machine has a working width of 4 metres and is fitted with an active harrow (Lion 402 model) to prepare the seedbed immediately before sowing. The seed hopper holds 1,000 litres, allowing extended operation without frequent refilling. Sowing depth and seed rate are controlled electronically via a Compass control computer with electric adjustment, eliminating manual intervention during work. The drill is equipped with disc coulters fitted with depth-following wheels to maintain consistent seed placement even over uneven ground.
The integrated Lion 402 harrow features a 500 mm diameter toothed shaft (packer roller) and includes a levelling rail for fine control of soil finish. A PTO (Power Take-Off) shaft drives the harrow, and mechanical upper linkage provides attachment to the tractor. The drill carries side markers and pre-emergence markers to aid accurate application and prevent overlap.
Additional features include an operating platform for the operator, a star wheel for seed metering, and navigation lighting with reflective panels for safe road transport. The machine is located in Poland and is being offered in used condition from 2013.
