The PLMA-6 is a six-row mechanical garlic planter from Broch and the largest in the PLMA-2…PLMA-6 family. Cloves are metered by a disc with 14 spoon grippers of different sizes, selected to the size of the material (simple, safe replacement). Each section has its own seed hopper of approx. 50 kg, so different sizes can be planted at the same time. Density is adjustable within 6–15 cloves per metre (by changing the sprocket), and the row spacing is set at the factory (approx. 38–55 cm). It is part of the complete Broch garlic mechanisation chain: clove splitter → planting (mechanical PLMA, pneumatic PLNA) → harvesting → post-harvest lines. Manufacturer based in Arganda del Rey, near Madrid.
