2025 Kuhn Axis® 20.2 W Base

2025 Kuhn Axis® 20.2 W

A compact precision fertilizer spreader providing accurate application rate control, high quality fertilizer distribution and easy adjustments.

The KUHN Axis® 20.2 W offers a simple, affordable precision fertilizer spreading solution for small- to medium-sized farms and specialty operations. Standard weigh scales make for quicker rate-control setup while keeping the operator informed of the remaining quantity of material in the hopper. The Quantron A controller is easy to use and does not require a tractor with ISOBUS capability. Speed Servo electric motors control the metering outlets to reduce application errors and provide Vari-Spread 8 section control. Like other spreaders in the Axis family, the slow-rotating hopper agitators and Coaxial Distribution Adjustment (CDA) system gently handle fragile materials while creating wide, precise spread patterns.

Main Gearbox & Driveline

The Axis® 20.2 W spreader utilizes a simple PTO drive. Depending on the product and desired working width, the PTO speed may range from 450 to 650 rpm. Contained within the cast-iron case are the components to drive the spreading discs and hopper agitator.

The split hopper design eliminates “dead zones” and any chance of material bridging, with an octagonal shape to prevent fertilizer from favoring one side on sidehills. The agitators (one on each side) ensure even fertilizer flow and reduce clumping from humidity. Depending on the set PTO speed, they rotate at 15-20 rpm to reduce damage to fertilizer granules.

All KUHN fertilizer spreaders go through a 7-step process that includes mechanical and chemical cleaning as well as top-quality powder paint application and paint baking. This ensures optimum corrosion and scratch resistance, UV resistance, acid resistance and increased abrasion durability. KUHN powder paint will wear longer as the base material is much harder and will corrode far less with the powder paint protectant.

The weighing system is one of the defining features of the Axis 20.2 W. Two weigh cells built into the hitch provide feedback for the rate control system and inform the operator of the quantity remaining in the hopper. Rate control via scales also eliminates the calibration test required on machines not equipped with a weighing system. The scales read and adjust the application rate every second, maintaining an accurate average rate across the width of the machine. The scales also keep the operator informed of the amount of product remaining in the hopper to help anticipate reloading points. ?

The metering outlets at the bottom of each side of the hopper allow the material to pass through in a controlled manner to promote the best spread pattern possible. The special shape creates distinct “packets” of material on the disc paddles to reduce the effect of rate changes on the spread pattern. Each metering outlet is controlled by its own Speed Servo a high-speed electric motor. This motor reacts quickly to changes in ground speed or rate settings, improving coverage and also reducing areas of over- or under-application in areas such as headlands. Speed Servos are sealed and maintenance-free for a long service life.

Unrivaled Accuracy

The Coaxial Distribution Adjustment (CDA) System changes the drop point to adjust the spread pattern quickly and easily for the operator. On the 20.2 W, the slides can be manually adjusted.

Like all Axis models, the 20.2 W offers multiple disc options to meet the needs of the customer.
