VertiCORE™

The VertiCORE™ features a massive dual hitch design capable of CAT 3 and 4N hitching. This allows quick tractor swaps and hookups with no worry of your tractor hitch Category.

Dual 1/2″ thick 7×7 tubing and full depth hinges, combine to make the strongest and most durable planter toolbar on the market. Weight is distributed across the machine where you need it to keep your high-speed planter units in the ground, no matter the conditions.

Rugged adjustable gauge wheels and tires are included on each machine to accurately manage operating height.

High visibility LED safety lighting and marking are standard on all CORE toolbars. You may be the biggest thing on the road, but you will still be glad you have bright and visible front and rear flashers and marking.

Engineered design and accommodates all of your electronic components, making install possible with simple hand tools. No more designing, fabricating, welding or painting to mount all of your technology.

With the end user and serviceability in mind, Hawkins engineers placed all electronic and hydraulic components in an easily accessible area with plenty of room to work. No contortionist certification needed here.

No planter is complete without a fertilizer system, and unfortunately you are usually left to MacGyver yourself a routing plan. The Hawkins VertiCORE™ solves that problem with extra mounting brackets across the entire machine to attach your fertilizer hoses to keep your machine tidy and serviceable.

With 30+ degrees of flex in the 3-section frame, the Hawkins VertiCORE™ rivals the flexibility of many pull-type planters on the market today.

Combine the flexibility of the frame with the simple hydraulic weight transfer system, and you can be sure you aren’t just following the land, you are imposing your will on it.

Using the weight of the center to apply down force on the wings the toolbar keeps the wing row units in constant ground contact, keeping consistent seed depth placement across the entire width of the planter. This is especially helpful in no-till and high-speed planting situations.

The single 55-bushel bulk-seed tank on the VertiCORE™ allows for quick and easy fills, and the tank design fits an entire Pro-Box without having to push seed to the corners.

The ladder and platform on the VertiCORE™ are built like a tank, just in case you are too. The simple and robust design make the climb stable and easy for all.

The SeedFlow system easily delivers seed ranging in size from Canola to Faba beans on demand to the individual row hoppers. With no moving parts and a simple full cleanout system you can go plant with confidence that it just flat-out works.

Precision Planting Ready Row Units are built to accept the Precision Planting technology and products that you need, so that you can build the planter that you want.

With features such as 20|20 monitoring, DeltaForce hydraulic downforce, CleanSweep row cleaner control and vSet2 electric drive seed meters, you can head to the field with confidence knowing you’ve given yourself the best odds to perform.

The CORE Planter Platform™ is also available with less row units. Offering all of the same smart design features, and functionality to make your purpose-built planter plans a reality.
