2024 Geringhoff Horizon Star III

Features may include:

The mix of cutting knife and blunt flail result in optimum stubble treatment and effective control of the corn borer during harvesting.

All stubbles are hit and destroyed by the corn header itself, so they are not run on by the combine or following machines.

A sharp section makes a clean cut that separates the stover from the stubble. The cut is followed by a blow which hits the stubble at an angle, ripping it down to the root as the horizontal blade makes a cut at ground level.

Two snapping rolls and a counter-rotating disc rotor make the cut diagonally and chop the trash intensively for rapid breakdown and reduced Fusarium pressure in the following crop.

To absorb peak loads that may result from operationg so close to the ground and still continue delivering the traditional potential of a Geringhoff machine, the driveline underwent a comprehensive upgrade and reinforcement.

The new system marks an enviromentally friendly contribution to an effective control of corn borers and improved field hygiene.

The mais plant is intensively chopped by the established three-rotor system.Two snapping rolls of different diameters grab the plant and pull it down in a uniform motion. At the same time the cutter rotor (with 15 self-sharpening rotary knives) cuts the plant up into uniformy short sections. The horizontal chopper dotated with an hybrid blade cuts the plant close to the ground, leaving a very short stubble. The angled cutting edge ensures that the very short residual stubble is splitted all the way to the root base.

The gathering chains are tensioned automatically. The gathering chain can be changed quickly and easily thanks to the Geringhoff special tool. As the chain tensioner is tuned to the patented sprocket, the driveline is protected from blockages caused by debris and gearbox failures are avoided. Geringhoff is the only manufacturer to offer automatic tensioning for the gathering chains.
