Orion

Universal combination grain and fertiliser seed drill — 3 and 4 m, coulter downforce 20–125 kg

The Tume Orion is a universal combination grain and fertiliser seed drill with working widths of 3 and 4 m. Coulter geometry keeps the sowing depth constant — resistance increases with depth — and downforce adjustable in the range of 20–125 kg per coulter allows sowing into stubble on soft soils as well. Its simple, light construction means lower power requirements than heavier units. It is aimed at lighter cultivation, without the electric metering known from the Super Nova Combi.

Engineering

Three Tume seed drills — three different soils

Tume specialises in sowing depth accuracy; three models match three field conditions.

01
Why this technology exists

Constant sowing depth

The hallmark of Tume is maintaining a constant sowing depth despite field unevenness and a changing hopper fill level, thanks to the geometry of the coulter, the gauge wheel ahead of the coulter and the adjustable down pressure.

02
Design decisions

Coulter down pressure to suit soil condition

The Super Nova Combi works with a down pressure of 40–200 kg and is suitable for direct, reduced and conventional drilling. The Orion (20–125 kg) is the lighter segment, for cultivated and lightly reduced soils, and on light soils drills into stubble. The JC (JyräCombi) works on conventionally cultivated soil.

03
How the mechanism works

Metering: electric vs mechanical

The Super Nova Combi meters with four electric motors (2 for fertiliser, 2 for seed), with stepless adjustment during operation. The Orion and JC have mechanical metering. These are different levels of automation for different budgets and tasks.

04
Operation in practice

Why the JC combines drilling and rolling

The JyräCombi (JC) performs drilling and rolling in a single pass. A patented mechanism with a balancing cylinder maintains even shaft pressure across the full width regardless of the hopper fill level, which is key to even emergence on cultivated soil.

Comparison

Tume: Super Nova Combi vs Orion vs JC

Three Tume seed drills for different tasks: from direct drilling (Super Nova Combi), through lighter tillage (Orion), to drilling with rolling on cultivated soil (JyräCombi).

  • manufacturer's materials
  • dokumentacji technicznej
  • questions asked by farms

Answers based on the experience of thousands of farms in Europe.

An engineer answers

For cultivated and lightly reduced soils; with downforce of 20–125 kg also for sowing into stubble on soft soils.

An engineer answers

Through coulter geometry — resistance increases with depth, which stabilises operation.

An engineer answers

3 i 4 m.

An engineer answers

The Orion is a lighter, simpler unit — without electric metering and with lower downforce (up to 125 kg instead of 200 kg).
