Italian term

Tiller a ancore

Homework / test Italian to English Other Agriculture Energy Crop
I am translating a woody biomass energy crop service contract from Italian into English:
There is a machine called “Tiller a ancore”.

The sentence is: "Tiller a ancore trainato da trattrice agricola per la lavorazione del terreno sino ad una profondità di 30 cm".
May I say “Tiller with blades”??
Proposed translations (English)
4 tine tiller

tine tiller

I think the *ancore* are usually referred to as the tines, but sometimes also as digging blades.
The above seems to be the usual name:
