Designed for large areas, the  Multi-Challenger XT semi-mounted plough from Kuhn enables ploughing of up to 14 bodies. Drawing on the combined expertise of the Multi-Leader XT and Multi-Master L ranges, it offers intuitive adjustments and good working quality, even in the most demanding conditions.

The new high capacity plough continues the evolution of Kuhn semi-mounted ploughs by offering a solution dedicated to high-powered tractors up to 700 hp, including those equipped with wide wheels, dual wheels, or tracks.

The Multi-Challenger XT combines the most efficient components from the Kuhn range to ensure maximum endurance. Its front section incorporates the key elements of the Multi-Leader XT, high-power single-wheel semi-mounted ploughs, for precision and stability. At the rear, it features the architecture of the Multi-Master L, renowned for its robustness. This combination ensures consistent, simple and familiar settings, as well as flawless ploughing consistency across the entire width of the plough.

100% on land

Available in two versions with off-track compasses, the Multi-Challenger XT adapts to the dimensions of the largest tractors, up to 4.5 m and 5.5 m overall width. Designed to fully exploit the capabilities of tractors of crawler-type, with twin wheels or tyres over 710 mm wide, off-track ploughing ensures optimum traction while reducing soil compaction. The 5.5 m version comes standard with an “on land” turning sequence with offset position memory, providing precision, comfort and repeatability of settings in all conditions.

Designed to maximize productivity on a large scale, the Multi-Challenger XT offers precise ground tracking that ensures a constant working depth, even on irregular terrain. Its liftable rear section facilitates the creation of short headlands, limits the need for re-tilling and, when conditions require, allows to work with only the front section to maintain efficiency. The multi cutting width can be adjusted in seconds. Combined with T or NSH safety devices, capable of withstanding the highest stresses, these solutions ensure smooth and continuous work. In addition, the optional working lights improve visibility at all times, while the on-board “Duoliner” roller creates a high-quality seedbed directly, saving time and ensuring perfect soil preparation in a single pass.

Reconsolidation directly after ploughing

The Kuhn “Duoliner” on-board roller improves soil preparation by creating a finely crumbled seedbed and deep consolidation that retains moisture, directly during ploughing. Thanks to its parallelogram frame and “Steady Control” system, it ensures optimal ground tracking and automatically adjusts pressure according to plough settings and terrain, without driver intervention. Fully integrated and controllable from the cab, it saves time and ensures consistent work quality.
