Product Description
A corn harvester with 5 rows is a type of agricultural machinery designed to efficiently harvest corn. Here's a detailed description:
- Row Capacity: The harvester is equipped to harvest five rows of corn simultaneously, making it a mid-sized option for medium-scale farms.
- Header Design: It features a five-row header, where each row aligns with the spacing of the corn plants. The header includes snapping rollers to strip the ears of corn from the stalks while leaving the stalks behind.
- Threshing System: Inside the harvester, a threshing mechanism separates the kernels from the cobs. The cobs are discarded, and the kernels are stored in a hopper.
- Engine Power: This type of harvester typically has a robust engine to power the cutting, gathering, and threshing processes, ensuring smooth operation.
- Storage and Discharge: The harvested kernels are stored in an onboard hopper. Once full, the hopper can unload into a trailer or storage container using an auger system.
This type of harvester balances efficiency and size, making it suitable for fields with moderate planting density. It provides faster harvesting compared to smaller units while maintaining ease of maneuverability.
