More flexibility. The effective SUNSPEED principle. The SUNSPEED sunflower cutterbar was developed with the goal of achieving maximum output per unit area with the lowest losses. Particular attention was paid to keeping set-up times as short as possible and making the system extremely easy to operate. The sunflower stems are first captured by the shuttles. An adjustable guide plate ensures that the sunflower heads are pushed to the front. At the same time, the snapping roller under the knife bar pushes the stalks down. It is impossible for them to be cut too early as this only takes place once the special reel has captured the sunflower heads.
The precisely cut heads are then passed to the intake auger and feeder 1 Adjustable guide plate housing.
