New Holland Ag Durabine™ 413 PLUS

To maximize productivity, the MowMax™ II PLUS true modular cutterbar delivers a clean cut. Long knives extend each module’s cutting diameter by nearly 1 inch (25.4 mm) and turn with a tip speed of 171 mph (275 kph) at 2300 rpm on the Durabine™ 413 PLUS and 195 mph (314 kph) at 2600 rpm on the Durabine 416 PLUS and 419 PLUS, which is 14 mph (22 kph) faster than the previous series (181 mph (291 kph)). For better crop-to-knife engagement, the cast rock guards are reshaped. To improve cutting in light- or late-season crops, the profile of the cutterbar is lower by bringing the discs closer to the cutterbar with low profile ShockPRO™ hubs. Along with the long knives, this design is more productive in down and tangled crops as the cutting height is nearly 30% lower compared to previous Durabine heads, leaving less uncut crop behind.

Since 1964 when New Holland introduced the industry’s first combined mower-conditioner, the Haybine® name has been associated with impeccable cutting performance, fast drying, and time-tested reliability. Three sizes are available with cutting widths of 14’ 3” (4.34 m.), 16’ 3” (4.95 m), and 18’ 3” (5.56 m). For clean cutting performance, dual counter-stroking sickles feature a timed modular wobble drive that assures smooth cutting with minimal vibration and maintenance. Over-serrated knives slice quickly at 1800 rpm as the fully adjustable five-bat reel consistently feeds crop into the 20-inch (508 mm) auger. Fast dry down is the result of 102-inch (2591 mm) wide chevron-pattern intermeshing rubber or steel rolls that use a proven torsion-bar roll-pressure system to apply constant pressure.

The Durabine™ 416 PLUS Specialty Grass Seed Harvesting head delivers high-capacity performance in delicate crops that do not require conditioning, like grasses, flower seeds, and mint. A unique auger features flighting that tapers as it approaches the center of the head, with no paddles, supports, or conditioning rolls. A flexible lean bar in the front assists tall crop flow into the head, without sudden impacts that could shatter delicate seedpods. A second curtain hanging above the cutterbar improves crop flow. In the back, windrow-forming rods gently direct crop into a windrow ready for harvesting.

In partnership with Honey Bee® Manufacturing, the Speedrower® PLUS Series is compatible with the WSC Swather Series. To maximize the impressive capacity of a Speedrower® 220 PLUS or 260 PLUS windrower, two models are available: the 30-foot (9.1 m) WSC30 and the 36-foot (10.9 m) WSC36. With over 20 years of experience and proven components, like the SCH Easy Cut Cutting System and the Honey Bee® Reel, a fast and efficient harvest is guaranteed for seasons to come.
