Innovationspreis Moderne Landwirtschaft: Projekt Flexi-Flügel-Rad aus Dresden gewinnt 1. Preis – Grasdorf Rad GmbH ist Teil der Kooperation

The cooperation between TU Dresden, the Saxon Textile Research Institute and Grasdorf-Rad GmbH has won the Modern Agriculture Innovation Award in the Cooperation category with its “Flexi-Wing Wheel” project.

The Flexi-wing wheel system, which was awarded 1st prize, enables a quick and situational response to soil-related requirements during field work. It ensures sustainable protection of agricultural land, reduces soil compaction and protects vital soil organisms.

The wheel system, which can be retracted and extended at the touch of a button, saves power, time and money and makes field work easier or even possible in all weathers.

The system is easy to integrate and independent of the agricultural machinery manufacturer.
