Description of the machine
MAXICUT is a powerful knife-drum, designed specifically to drive through crops with
long, strong stems. Here the remaining organic residue is cut so that the decay starts
faster. The drums are formed as watertight containers, which can be filled with water as
needed to increase the machine's weight.
The machine is delivered from the factory without water in the containers.

The knife-drums are constructed so that
the individual sections can move
independently of each other. By default,
there are strong bearings.

MAXICUT's intended purpose is harvesting, for example, corn, sunflower or rapeseed,
which is greatly influenced by the machine's total weight and the soil. The machine is
most effective when the knife-drum is completely filled with water and the soil is
completely dry.
The containers must not be filled with water or a liquid with a density less than
1.15
g/cm

. This avoids overloading the machine's hydraulic and welded frames.
The speed of the machine must be high to be effective, with speeds over 15 km/hour,
preferably 18-25 km/hour where one will find the knife-drums at their best across the
stubble and plant remains. For further processing of the field, run over the field twice.
The machine is constructed so sturdily that it can tolerate high loads. Nevertheless, it
is always necessary to adjust the driving speed to the conditions, i.e. reduce travel
speed, for example, when the ground is uneven.
