The universal Float Stream close-cutting headers enable mowing of different tyoes of cereals, grain legume crops and flax. The minimum distance from the surface of the field to the harvester’s cutting elements enable to particularly effectively remove lodged plants, as well as soybeans or chickpeas with a low position of the first pods.
The "floating knife" of the header mows at 30 mm height and adapts to the relief of any complexity in the longitudinal and transverse directions.
Operation on various reliefs
In the flexible (floating) knife mode, the cutter bar mounted on spring-loaded levers can copy the field relief with an accuracy of 100 mm, repeating all its bumps and thus minimizing losses.
Versatility
The requirements for harvesting grain crops differ from those for grain legumes because of their biological differences. Two operation modes, Floating and Rigid, allow the header to adapt to various harvesting conditions and crop peculiarities.
Easy operation
Hydraulic cylinders for remote switching the operation mode from "floating" to "rigid" and vice versa are installed on the sides of the header. The work of hydraulic cylinders is controlled from the operator's cab, which makes the operation easier and reduces the time required to switch from one mode to another.
Quality contour following
Flexible cutter bar allows copying the soil relief in both longitudinal and transverse directions in the range of 10 cm, which reduces the loss of low-lying beans.
High quality of cutting
The Schumacher cutter bar with a frequency of 1,120 double strokes per minute ensures a constant cutting height at maximum operating speeds of combine harvesters.
