Every farmer has at least one rotary mower on his farm. Without it, it is almost impossible to quickly prepare food. The use of this tool in the agricultural industry greatly accelerates the productivity of harvesting and the speed of forage. In addition, the operation of this tool almost does not require the expenditure of human physical strength. Why is a mounted rotary mower good, how does it work and how much does it cost? Find out the answers to these questions right now.
What is it?
The mounted rotary mower is the most common type of forage harvesting mounted tools, which are used not only far abroad, but also in many CIS countries. Such a great popularity is explained by the fact that this mechanism has a lot of advantages that allow it to maintain a leading position in the ranking.agricultural equipment.
Benefits
Such a tool as a mounted rotary mower operates at high forward speeds, thanks to which it quickly and efficiently cuts and collects grass. On the field, such a tool neatly lays the mowing in a row, which is very convenient for loading and transporting hay. It should be noted that a mounted rotary mower (including KRN-21) can effectively mow not only high-yielding plants, but also lay grass.
Working principle
Each rotary tool, when mowing grass, performs rotational movements of the tool, which are provided by the speed shafts of a working walk-behind tractor or tractor. Thus, these devices use the driving power of the tractor in order to further activate their own mowing mechanisms.
Several types of power transmission may also be involved in the grass harvesting process:
- Klinnomernaya.
- Conical.
- Gimbal.
- Spur gear.
The mounted rotary mower itself (“Dawn” is one of the best in this segment) is a kind of bar, to the upper part of which special rotors are fixed (hence the name “rotary”). Each mechanism, mounted on top of the "beam", is equipped with moving knives that quickly cut plants.
The use of a rotary type of mowing makes such tools the most effective among all its othercompetitors. So, for example, if conventional grass mowers use only 30-35 percent of the tractor's energy, then rotary mowers use about 60-65.
Cost
At the moment, the price of a rotary mower can range from 5-10 to 130 or more thousand rubles. Why such a wide price range? The fact is that the mounted rotary mower can be used not only on tractors, but also on walk-behind tractors. Attachments for the latter are always several tens of times cheaper than attachments for tractors. Hence, such a solid gap between the cost of professional and non-professional mowers for mowing agricultural land.
