2022 Cadman Power Equipment CMA Silver Series

UTILIZING THE BENEFITS OF YOUR MANURE HAS NEVER BEEN EASIER

Concept by Alig – Designed and Built by Cadman

Cadman has taken a concept developed by the Alig Brothers of Ohio, to design and build the Continuous Manure Applicator (CMA). The Cadman CMA Silver is engineered to apply liquid manure to growing crops by side-dressing in fields as long as 1650 feet. The Alig Brothers brought their patent-pending concept and ten years of data collected by The Ohio State University to Cadman Power Equipment. Cadman’s expertise in engineering, design, and manufacturing was a perfect fit with the science – the best time to apply manure is not in the spring and fall, but when the crops are growing.

One: Pull Out Cycle

The tractor pulls the injector with the patented CMA swivel arm. The arm pulls out the 5.3” I.D. hard hose away from the CMA and incorporates in 30’ width rows.

When the tractor gets to the opposite end of the field (up to 1/2 a mile). the tractor turns 180o and comes back down the field, incorporating another 30’ strip. When the tractor turns, the swing arm turns to the side of the tool-bar, which keeps the hose in the same row it was pulled out on.

The tractor returns at the same speed it is pulled out. Tractor ground speed on the return trip is synchronized by coordination between the CMA and the injector operators.

The towable CMA reel is controlled by the operator in the tow tractor. While the injection tractor is completing its return trip, the CMA reel operator moves forward 60’ in order to start another pass.
