Deep Steaming

... with the most efficient system: the steaming plough!

Deep steaming with the steaming plough

Steam ploughing is the most efficient but also the most expensive option.

If the soil is loosened properly, the steaming depth of up to 60cm at 90°C can be easily achieved.

The steaming width is up to 3.2m which requires a steam capacity of 1000 kg/hr/plough.

For further steaming, a steaming sheet of 10 - 15m length x steaming width is drawn behind the plough. The adjustable steaming depth is set with the stabilising rollers running in front of the device.

The plough is drawn by 2 steel cables, operated by a 0.5 hp drive, with special 3-stage gearbox, for fully adjustable speed from 5 - 15m/hr.

The average working speed is about 10m/hr.
