Combine harvester, the multi functional machine designed to make reaping, threshing, and winnowing efficient, has revolutionized cultivation across the world. There is no doubt combine has successfully mechanized farms and minimized the dependency on manpower. However, the operational efficacy of your farming activities depends on the maintenance of the combine harvester and you will get the best output only when combine parts are of the highest grade. If you are not getting desired output from your farms, it is time to consider about combine parts to take the harvesting operation to the next level. Here are some of the combine parts you should be aware of to maximize yield and improve efficiency:
Combine Observation System
Safe and effective handling of combine harvester needs better front and back view. A high-quality combine observation system with a color camera gives you better visibility and flexibility. The operator will have a clear view of the gain tank and sample.
Concaves
The selection and quality concaves play a very crucial role in reducing harvesting loss that happens during the threshing and winnowing procedure. Depending on your crop, you have to keep stock of large-wire, round-bar, or small-grain concaves. Buy the best concaves from your combine parts manufacturer to keep maintenance costs low and reduced gain loss.
Feeder-house Drum Stop Height Adjustment Kit
Depending on the crop type and grain size requirement you have to adjust the feeder-house drum. You can remove the retaining pin and position lever as per the grain size requirement.
Tine/Paddle Beater
For better and aggressive separation of crops, you can use the tine/paddle beater with the high-inertia cylinder. The paddles will strip while tine will separate to enable the efficient separation of crops. This combine part will reduce the plugging and buildup of crop wastes.
Enclosed Cylinders
If your harvesting condition requires more aggressive processing, you can opt for high-inertia fully enclosed cylinders. These are designed to prevent plugging and vibration. Besides, it gives you better fuel efficiency and material flow even in tough conditions.
Unloading Auger Extension
The overall operational efficiency and output depend on the operator’s control over the flow of crop to grain handling equipment. The unloading auger extensions give you up to 3 feet more length to deliver grain to the grain cart, so you get better control over grain harvesting operations.
Engine Air Scoop
Material buildup on the radiator, oil cooler, and air charge cooler is pretty normal in the combine harvesting process. Build up of unwanted material affects the operational efficiency of your combine. However, you can prevent buildup with the engine air scoop—mounted high to pull clean air from above.
Straw Spreader
The efficiency of the harvesting process involving reaping, threshing, and winnowing, depends on the flow of the crop. An extra-wide straw spreader with two large impellers ensures the even distribution of grain from the separator and cleaning system. It is good, but you should follow your combine harvester manufacturer’s user guide to get the best results.
Takeaway
A typical combine harvester consists of over 130 different combine parts. You will get the best result with minimum effort only when all combine parts are in perfect shape and sync. Regular maintenance is the key, so follow maintenance guidelines and keep stock of high-quality combine parts to make your farming operation enjoyable and profitable.
