Weeds and volunteers spread by the combine harvester are the real issue

More than just Integrated Weed Management.

Collection

Up to 80% of weed seeds are collected by the combine harvester.

Processing

When grain is separated from other materials, weed seeds get processed in the tailings return system.

Stop the Spread

The tailings return system can spread them up to 500m across the paddock to germinate next year.

CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

The best mill tech in the business

Australian Made precision-machined mills proven to kill 99% of weed seeds.

Fastest screen changeover of 20 minutes

We've designed the screens to enable quick swap in 20 minutes.

​

Kill regardless of RPM & Moisture with 4 Modes of Action

Our patented Multistage Hammer Mills, kill weeds with four modes of action with effective mill speed from 2250RPM to 3000RPM.

Lowest no-load power

Aerodynamic rotor profiles provide the lowest no load power of 24kW. At 300km/hr would you prefer to drive a truck or a Ferrari?

AGRONOMIC BENEFITS
Interrupt the weed cycle

“It seems crazy that we spend time and money killing weeds all year, only to reward the survivors at harvest and spread them out so we have something to spray next year.”

Flails

Eat stones for breakfast

Our patented stone doors and flexible flails allow stones to pass through the mills, with no stone damaged mills over 10 harvests on 3 continents. 

Magnet tray for catching steel

Our patented magnet tray is standard on all models because we know rocks aren't the issue, steel is.

In cab monitor

Realtime monitoring

Our in cab display monitors mill speeds, bearing gearbox temperatures, wear vibration sensors and blockage sensors.

Stable operation with reduced vibration

Individually balanced mills running horizontally ensures stable operation (no gyroscopic forces at play because of horizontal orientation).

Efficient by design

Our custom designed German manufactured spiral bevel gearbox runs at a low 1580 RPM and doesn't require complicated cooling systems.

Shock load protection

We've designed protection in with independent mills, gearbox and chassis linked by belt drive to isolate and protect your investment.
​WHAT IS THE RRP OF THE SEED TERMINATOR?
The RRP for a Seed Terminator ranges from $110,000 to $120,000 AUD Fitted, depending on make and model. 
Including AeroIMPACT3 Mill tech, Magnet Tray, Future Proof Chassis, Delivery, Fitup and Commissioning
HOW MUCH POWER DO I NEED TO RUN A SEED TERMINATOR?
Deep research & development in this space shows that the energy needed to destroy tiny seeds is high, if you are not using power you are not killing seeds. We estimate it will require 80-100 horsepower.​​
WILL I BE ABLE TO ACCESS THE LATEST SEED TERMINATOR TECHNOLOGY?
Yes, we aim for this to be a future proof technology platform, able to slot in the latest mill technology available in two, five or 10 years' time. ​​

i'm planning on upgrading my header, is it simple to swap the Seed terminator?
Yes, the Seed Terminator system is easy to swap over to a new combine harvester it just needs to be unbolted and installed on the new machine. For John Deere machines there are no changes to the straw hood further simplifying the system. 

"The great thing about Terminators is when you're finished you just shut the gate."

Peace of Mind

The Case IH Axial Flow Drive Kit provides the peace of mind of a OEM designed, engineered and warrantied driveline that wont impact your combine harvester. The Case IH Drive kit is avialable for Case IH Seed Terminators only. 

Australian Innovation & Manufacturing at its best. 

We are a proud South Australian company, the Seed Terminator concept was developed, tested, manufactured and shipped from right here in Australia. 

​^ Matt & Honni from Ascend Films caught up with Mick Schutz in September 2020 to chat about their family farming operation in Grass Patch north of Esperance WA, the independent kill testing he has done and how the Seed Terminator triplets fit. 
"We don't farm for tomorrow, we don't farm for next week, we farm for the future”
