Swath Compressor
The swath compressor is a large, formed polyethylene sheet designed to mount to the underside of the windrower. The
swath compressor is designed for use with draper headers cutting canola.
The swath compressor shapes the windrow and anchors it into the stubble behind the header to help prevent shelling and
swath damage from wind. Excessive compression by a swath compressor or roller can increase losses from crop shelling,
and may increase drying time; inadequate compression can leave a windrow prone to wind damage.
