Cultivate with Cenius for Any Field Condition
For soil tillage that demands intensive loosening and effective incorporation, the Amazone Cenius-2TX trailed cultivator is built to deliver versatility, reliability and solid cost performance across a wide range of farming systems. Designed for operators who want one machine to handle shallow stubble work through to deeper topsoil loosening, the Cenius-2TX offers working widths from 4 to 7 metres. It works lightly when needed and digs in when conditions demand it.
The performance of the Cenius is shaped by its tine stagger and carefully engineered angle of attack which together ensure consistent soil flow, thorough mixing and controlled loosening ac ross the full working width. This layout allows the machine to operate efficiently across varying depths while maintaining stable pulling characteristics, an important factor for large farms and contractors looking to balance output with fuel efficiency.
Cenius trailed cultivators are well regarded for their robustness and ease of pull, with power requirements starting at around 80 horsepower per metre. Optional traction control further enhances grip and stability, particularly in more challenging condition s allowing the machine to work effectively while reducing wheel slip. The result is not only improved work quality but also tangible fuel savings over long working days.
At the heart of the machine ’ s durability is the C-Mix share system, which allows the c ultivator to adapt to virtually any soil type, whether working shallow for residue incorporation or deeper for loosening compacted layers. The strength of the C-Mix Ultra tine system becomes especially apparent in demanding soils with medium to large stone s, where overload protection is regularly triggered. In these situations, the tines are able to deflect without compromising frame integrity or working depth.
For conditions where overload events are less frequent, C-Mix Super tines with pressure spring ov erload protection provide effective safeguarding of the frame, automatically resetting after deflection. Working depth adjustment is infinitely variable and can be set mechanically or fully hydraulically, with depth control managed via the rear roller and support wheels on the Cenius - 2TX. Where hydraulic ultra overload protection is specified, trigger forces can be set between 500 and 800 kilograms ensuring that working depth is reliably maintained even under the toughest soil conditions. This allows the ti nes to deflect as often as necessary, even at depths of up to 35 centimetres while a central hydraulic accumulator damps the return movement of the tines significantly reducing wear on the overload protection system.
Strength is engineered right down to th e tip, with the Cenius able to be fitted with a range of different shares and share points to suit soil type and cultivation goal. Regardless of configuration, the high - strength shares ensure reliable penetration into the soil along with intensive mixing a nd loosening. Combined with a choice of levelling tools and rear rollers and working depths ranging from 5 to 35 centimetres, the Cenius becomes a highly flexible soil tillage tool that can be used throughout the year.
That flexibility allows the implement to cover a wide range of applications, from shallow stubble cultivation and aggressive incorporation of harvest residues through to topsoil deep loosening and final seedbed preparation. For farms and contractors aiming to simplify their machinery lineup, the Cenius offers the ability to adapt to seasonal demands without the need to change implements.
Ease of use and low maintenance have also been central to the design. Tool-free mechanical or hydraulic adjustment of working depth and the levelling unit mak es setup quick and straightforward. A strong sturdy frame with a generous frame height of 80 centimetres and a tine spacing of 28 centimetres ensures blockage - free operation, even when working in heavy residues. The high underframe clearance promotes unint errupted material flow where large volumes of straw are present, while the following levelling tools leave behind an even, well - finished surface.
Maintenance demands are further reduced through the use of maintenance - free disc bearings, significantly cutti ng overall servicing time. The proven face seal technology used in Amazone tillage equipment for almost 25 years continues to play a key role here, having demonstrated its reliability in a wide range of conditions around the world.
As Roger Nehoff explains, the Cenius also fits neatly into broader cultivation and establishment strategies.
“The Amazone Cenius is great for use on the first pass to open up and dry out wet conditions. Combine the trailed soil tillage range with an optimum seeding system like th e Catros speed disc for a secondary high - speed pass with the option of a 200 or 500 litre green drill mounted on the frame, catch crops can be sown directly or during soil tillage,” he says.
Taken together, the Cenius-2TX offers a well - balanced combination of strength, flexibility and efficiency, making it a practical choice for operators who need reliable soil tillage performance across changing conditions and seasons.
