Explanation:
http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erpice

Erpice a dischi: è formato da due o più serie di numerose ruote dentate e dischi taglienti, si distingue tra erpici a dischi dritti (frangizolle) e a dischi obliqui (morgano o smorgano), con funzioni analoghe ai precedenti ma adatto a terreni meno tenaci; questi attrezzi esistono in versioni diverse in base al peso e alle dimensioni dei dischi, e quindi più o meno adatti ai vari scopi.
