The FT40 forage harvester is designed for mowing corn including in the phase of waxy and full ripeness of grain, sorghum, sunflower and other high-stemmed crops. Moreover the harvester is designed for mowing greens and picking dried seed and natural grasses from the swaths with crushing and loading into vehicles.
The FT40 includes a trailed chopper, a rotary header for harvesting rough-stemmed crops, a header for grass harvesting and a pick-up.
The harvester is aggregated with tractors from the second to the fourth drawbar category with an engine power of 150-250 hp. The FT40 opens the unique opportunities for harvesting crushed feed allowing optimal use of tractors available in your farm.
The disc-type chopping unit with 12 knives ensures the highest possible quality of leaf-stem mass chopping and corn kernels crushing. The high degree of mass chopping improves the occupancy rate of the trailer thereby reducing the number of vehicles engaged in hauling. Stone and metal detectors reliably protect the feeding unit from foreign objects preventing emergency breakdowns. Depending on the working conditions replaceable wear-resistant sheets can be installed in the chopping unit.
Harvesting of all types of forage crops
The harvester is equipped with a drum-type header which ensures the harvesting of corn without limiting the height of the stems and without loss of ears and also provides better chopping by feeding the stems into the feeding unit with the butt-log forward.
The 4.0-meter-wide platform-type grass header which is aggregated with the FT40 harvester is developed for harvesting grasses and other low-stemmed crops. The header is the optimal choice for agricultural enterprises and farmers seeking to optimize their processes.
The pick-up with a working width of 1.85 m is the ideal solution for efficient selection of pre-mown plant mass of swaths! A reliable one-way coupling in the pick-up gearbox provides protection against breakage and guarantees durability in operation.
Simple solution to complex tasks
The universal drawbar hitch allows you to quickly aggregate the harvester with various tractor models without additional accessories.
When moving on public roads the FT40 does not require removing adapters and folding the silage spout. A detachable silage spout is used in the design of the harvester. The transfer time from the working position to the transport position and vice versa is no more than 5 minutes.
The high productivity of the harvester combined with a simple and reliable technological scheme determines its successful use in harvesting hayloft silage and green top dressing.
