Chaff And Straw For Case-IH Combines
"It's the simplest and easiest way to spread both chaff and straw because it uses only the existing mechanical drives on the combine - no additional hydraulics, belts or chains are needed," says Trevor Jubenville, Stewart Steel, Weyburn, Sask., about his company's new chaff and straw spreader designed for Case-IH Axial-Flow combines.
"The spreaders on these combines handle the straw, leaving chaff in a windrow that can cause crop growth problems the following year. Other companies make hydraulic-driven add-on spreaders. However, the hydraulic systems on these combines often don't have enough power to do the job. Our system solves the problem by utilizing the combine's existing spreaders and mechanical drives," says Jubenville. "It spreads both chaff and straw up to 36 ft."
The company lengthens the existing hex shafts that drive the combine's spreaders to get the add-on unit low enough to capture chaff coming off the sieves. A pair of rectangular plastic deflector guides - one located just behind the combine's rear axle and the other just behind the spreaders - guide the material to both sides. An add-on spreader bar mounts above each spreader to keep chaff from being blown into the combine's engine area.
"The main frame of the spreader assembly bolts onto the combine's rear axle pivot beam. Farmers like the ease of installation," notes Jubenville.
Available for all Case-IH rotary combines except the 20 series.
Sells for $750 (U.S.).
