2022 Geringhoff Rota Disc® RD 700 B

2022 Geringhoff Rota Disc® RD 700 B

Experience the best processor for your stalks

Experience reduced fuel consumption, reduced downtime, and fewer maintenance requirements. The uniquely patented Rota Disc® design speeds growers through harvest and leaves a distinctly processed field behind. Vertically sliced, shredded, and evenly distributed, the Rota Disc® is the industry's most efficient stalk destruction corn head.

Features may include:

Excellent chopping and shredding quality. Uniformly short stubble pattern. The stalk cutter separates the stalk from the root and splits the stubble.

The Rota Disc® row unit

Intake

• Enclosed twin bearings at the front for particularly safe operation.

• Carbide auger flights and hardened scrapers ensure long service life and superior reliability.

• Additional long-life coating.

• Fully adjustable for greater precision.

• Working edges with special hard material coating for long service life.

• 15 self-sharpening and special coated rotary knives for great longevity.

• Active cutting system rotates in opposite direction to the plant stream.

• Knives may be replaced individually.

• The spline shaft transmitting the drive from the gearbox to the rotors provides an easy-to-use push-pull connection.

• Labyrinth seals protect the system from debris and dirt.

• The lightweight gearbox housing is made from an aluminum/magnesium alloy.

• The integrated, maintenance-free slip clutch protects the snapping rolls from overload.

Two snapping rolls pull in the stalks, with deck plates stripping off the cobs. The stover is chopped by the cutter rotor which is fitted with 15 rotary knives. The cutting and fraying action is even more efficient as the rotor revolves against the feeding direction.

Features may include:

Each field has its specific characteristics and challenges. Our goal is to rise to these challenges and provide you with a head that results in maximum yields from your crop.

• Great performance requires an exceptional drive system. Our headers are driven by a reliable crown wheel gearbox we deliberately designed a system that does work without chains and belts to ensure smooth harvesting.

• Geringhoff uses Centaflex® couplings to connect the row units. The dampers on the couplings significantly reduce vibration and shock loads on the gearbox that drives the row unit, thereby multiplying its reliability.

• An excellent service life, low maintenance, great flexibility, and compatibility with different combines are truly good reasons for choosing Geringhoff.

A unique gathering chain idea

Gathering Chains

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.
