THE NEW LEGEND...LATEST SHOCKWAVE REVENGE MODELS FROM IMANTS!
The finest rotary decompactor in the
world...invented, designed and developed by Imants for total reliability... now gets even better.
THE PROBLEM...
Soil compaction is now fully recognised by Agronomists and Turf
Research Institutes
worldwide as a major problem for all sports turf facilities. Compaction is THE prime cause of poor root development and the under utilisation of air, water and key nutrients. Regular decompaction and aeration is accepted by many leading authorities as 80% of essential turf maintenance, and the single most important and beneficial operation car- ried out by Course Managers/Superintendents and Groundsmen.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
WHAT IS NEW ABOUT THE SHOCKWAVE REVENGE?
• NEW CONCEPT The new Shockwave Revenge 1.55 metre model
THE SOLUTION... The Shockwave Revenge offers huge advan- tages over all other available designs - the soil is laterally displaced by scythe shaped cutting blades operating to a maximum depth of 400 mm (depending on model). When combined with the forward tractor speed, this creates a wave action - very like the Seismic waves of a real Earthquake - shattering the soil and breaking up soil compaction consistently across the full working width and depth of the machine. It is able to achieve this remarkable feat without surface disruption or damage to the soil struc- ture. The result is vastly improved drainage and aeration, encouraging deep healthy root growth, maximum water up-take and utilisa- tion of nutrients to maintain a dense, durable healthy, disease resistant natural sward with- out the high inputs and costs associated with many turf maintenance regimes.
These third-generation Shockwave Revenge models incorporate highly innovative and imaginative engineering solutions, to provide hugely increased durability and reliability in every respect. The latest machines are without doubt the ultimate rotary decompactor and the last word in reliability!
• NEW DESIGN...
In seeking to improve upon the excellent Mk II Shockwave, Imants have departed from the previous well established chain drive system, utilising instead a central all-gear-drive to the rotor shaft powered directly from the gearbox via the pto shaft. Central-gear-drive guarantees perfect torque characteristics and optimum balance throughout the machine and results in a drive train at least 30% stronger than before. With no chains to adjust or replace we have absolutely minimised the likelihood of break- age or failure through metal fatigue or wear. Next on the agenda for re-design was the thorny subject of shear bolts which had previ- ously been fitted to every blade and the pto. Imants found that local authority health and safety officers in particular, disliked the idea of their personnel replacing broken shear bolts
