FR

ULTIMATE PROCESSING POWER

The FR must keep 100% of the people happy, 100% of the time. Customers demand ultimate crop quality. The FR delivers it thanks to unparalleled processing performance. Contractors and cooperatives want to change between crops in the blink of an eye to minimise unprofitable downtime. The FR delivers it courtesy of industry-leading Variflow™ technology.

VARIFLOW™ TECHNOLOGY

Variflow™ system technology has streamlined the processor to trailer crop flow, banishing stagnant crop, when harvesting grass, to the history books. The Variflow™ system enables the operator to alter the position of the blower depending on the crop being harvested. The system features two settings: one for maize and one for grass. While switching the Variflow™ system from maize position to grass position, the distance between the cutterhead and blower is reduced by 20cm. This offers savings of up to 40hp(CV) to enhance overall machine efficiency.

ONE PERSON. TWO MINUTES. NO TOOLS.

In under two minutes, and on your own, you can change the Variflow™ system from its maize to grass setting without the need for any tools. Perfect when uttermost flexibility is of the essence in busy harvesting periods. Furthermore, an exclusive tensioning system ensures correct belt tension in both positions so you don’t need worry about it. During extended periods of silage, or when harvesting straight through, high value miscanthus, you can remove the crop processor in under 20 minutes with the assistance of a dedicated winch.

EFFICIENT CROP PROCESSING ROLLS

The efficient crop processing rolls utilise a proven sawtooth pattern for aggressive processing, which means virtually all kernels are cracked, making their nutritious fibre content even easier to digest. Available in four configurations, with between 77-166 teeth, the gap between the rolls can be calibrated using the IntelliView™ IV monitor for truly tailored processing performance. The toughened, highly abrasive surface has significantly enhanced durability during intensive maize harvesting.

HEAVY DUTY PROCESSING

The FR700 and FR850 models can be fitted with a heavy duty processor with a staggered tooth configuration. These twin chrome coated rolls offers more aggressive processing for higher throughput, together with enhanced longevity in highly abrasive conditions.
