The cutting table of a combine harvester is where the entire harvesting process begins. This is why DEUTZ-FAHR has created a comprehensive range of reliable cutting tables to cater for the needs of every customer. DEUTZ-FAHR headers are synonymous with precise cutting results, reliability, sturdy construction and versatility. The range covers a comprehensive spectrum of cutting widths with seven variants (four standard headers measuring 4.20, 4.80, 5.40 and 6.30 m, and three variable width headers measuring 5, 5.5 and 6.50 m), with unique capabilities that can be extended even further by installing accessories designed to cater for even the most specialised case.
Schumacher cutting system
With a planetary transmission for very high cutting rates (1220 cuts/minute), the Schumacher Easy Cut II cutting system ensures precise cutting quality and performance to cater for any need, even when working with green or laid crops and with high crop densities.
An innovative optional system with blade presser rollers and blade guide rollers keeps the blade perfectly straight while also reducing vibration, wear and power consumption.
Autocontrol
Proportional pick-up reel
The pick-up reel is equipped with six bars, each carrying a set of extremely resilient and flexible plastic tines, which are settable at an adjustable angle and individually replaceable far easier maintenance.
The pick-up reel is mounted on arms sliding on Teflon guides (for quick, precise hydraulic adjustment of tine inclination), and is also easily adjustable in position horizontally or vertically relative to the cab, to cater ideally for different crops and harvesting conditions.
The pick-up reel may be synchronised with ground speed. Once the driver initially sets the ground and pick-up reel speeds, when the ground speed is subsequently increased or decreased, the pick-up reel speed is automatically adjusted to maintain the same proportion between the parameters.
Special kits
DEUTZ-FAHR cutting tables have been designed for versatility. Both the sunflower and the rapeseed kits are easily fittable to the original grain bar to further extend the operational period of the combine harvester, for even more profitable returns on your investment.
This first kit consists of special extensions used simultaneously together with a smooth cylinder (installed in front of the feeder auger) and a toothed roller (mounted under the cutting table instead of the pick-up reel, which is removed) to harvest the crop efficiently and quickly.
The kit for rapeseed differs from the sunflower seed kit as it also includes an extension for the table and a vertical cutter blade on the right hand side of the hydraulic transmission (or with a blade on the left hand side, as an option).
VARICROP Cutting bar
VARICROP adjustable length cutting tables are the ideal solution for users who need to harvest multiple crops with their C6205. The range consists of three sizes (5, 5.5 and 6.5 m), which are hydraulically adjustable in depth by up to 70 cm directly from the cab, as are the position and height of the pick-up reel with sturdy metal tines.
