Uni-Forage Harvester
The cutter head on Uni doesn’t have to
double as a blower. And so the spout is
closer to the wagon. Result? Forage is
saved on turns, in contoured fields and in
crosswinds. Spout direction is hydraulic
ally controlled.
The Uni-Forage Harvester has non-stop
cutting and plug-free chopping ability, too.
More than 60 tons an hour in corn.
Three upper feed rolls and six spiral knives,
and a choice of four cutter head screens.
