Top Dry

Widespread swaths give efficient drying

JF has examined the relation between swath width and drying speed and proved that a wide but thin swath provides the most efficient drying. In the beginning the test material has a dry matter content of 15% and weighs 7 kg per metre. A dry matter content of 30%, which is normally used for making of silage, is already achieved after 1 day in the wide but thin swath. The same degree of dryness is only achieved after 3 days in the very narrow and thick swath.

GX - Top Dry

GX is equipped with Top Dry as standard. With adjustable vanes the swath width can be adjusted within 35-90% of the working width.

Extra conditioning with Top Dry

GMS can be equipped with Top Dry. A handle adjusting a plate above the PE-finger conditioner activates this equipment. In the lowest position the grass gets extra conditioning and for a longer period. The grass is then placed in a swath in the full width of the conditioner rotor.
