RSM F 1300 is a new forage harvester featuring an advanced forage harvesting technologies and a laconic simplicity of design. The new cutterhead provides a high (up to 85%) evenness of cutting lengths, improving the forage intake by animals. With the shortest path in its class, the combine’s energy efficiency has been greatly improved.
Feeder
An increased feed rolls diameter provides for a higher throughput of the combine, ensuring an even crop flow entering the chopper.
Four springs with a compacting force of 3500 kg ensure a dense flow of the material and an even cut.
The hydraulic roll damper absorbs impact loads, improves the performance of stone detector, prevents damage to the rolls and feederhouse frame, and provides additional pressing of crop material.
Cutter head
Thanks to a new cutting drum with four rows of knives arranged in a chevron pattern, crop material alignment and clean cut are ensured. Such design prevents any displacement of the knives, protecting the rotor from damage, and reduces the knife replacement costs.
Automatic adjustment of the drum floor prevents the crop material from recycling and allows obtaining the length of cut uniformity >85%. New sharpening device increases the knife sharpening speed twice — the highest cutting quality with no time lost.
Kernel processor
Two rolls 190 mm in diameter with saw-like teeth and a 20% difference in rotational speed ensure 99.9% grain cracking. For a more aggressive cracking, kits increasing difference between roll speeds to 30% or 40% are available for order.
The kernel processor is engaged by a hydraulic drive.
