Pre-Separation Rotor COMBINES Accessories 19-5-24 A new pre-separation rotor that mounts ahead of the existing combine cylinder won a silver medal for Claas in the new product competition at the Royal Show in England.
The add-on rotor is designed to improve feeding of the crop into the main cylinder and to also thresh the most easily detached seeds and separte them from the straw. It's fitted with stainless steel wear plates and has it's own concave mounted immediately ahead of the main concave. Regardless of the speed setting of the main cylinder, the add-on rotor always rotates 20 percent slower. Both concaves are adjusted propotionally by a single lever.
According to Claas, farmers who've tried the new system say it evens out feeding, boosts capacity with few blockages, less-ens grain damage, and is easy to set.
The new rotor system is standard on Claas "Mega" combines which are not yet available in North America.
