Bread is the head of everything. Without it, a huge number of people cannot imagine their existence. For the manufacture of bread, grain is needed, the cultivation and harvesting of which is a long and difficult process. Initially, this work was manually performed by a huge number of people. Automation has come to replace, and now grain is harvested using equipment. One of the machines that allow harvesting grain is the Polesye combine. The price of such equipment is about 110 thousand dollars. The cost may vary depending on the model of machinery, exchange rates, equipment, seller and country to which the combine will be exported.
Harvester Manufacturer
The neighbor of Russia - Belarus - is one of the few countries of the former Soviet Union that boasts of grandiose mechanical engineering. It is surprising that in the state, on the territory of which a little more than 10 million people live, the world-famous giants MTZ and Gomselmash have located their capacities. It is the latter that produces the Polesye combine from its conveyors. This technique is in great demand both domestically and abroad. The reason for this is the relatively low price (compared to peers) and excellent technical specifications.
Purpose of equipment
The Polesie harvester is used in agriculture during the harvesting season and the harvesting of green feed. This is a fairly compact technique with high bandwidth. The combine processes 8 kg of material per second, and the bunker weight of threshed grain reaches 12 tons per hour.
Among analogues, also having one threshing drum, beater and keyboard straw walker, this combine is the best. Due to this arrangement of the device, its technological reliability, the possibility of universal application and ease of maintenance are ensured.
In addition, in fields that do not have grain, the Polesye combine can also be used. In this case, the technique is configured according to two parameters: either grinding with subsequent scattering across the field, or laying the straw mass in rolls.
Basic data and specifications
The overall dimensions of this machine are impressive: the length is 10.5 meters, the width is 6.5 meters, and the height is 4.5 meters. Unambiguously, only one thing can be said - it is gigantic, this Polesye combine. The technical characteristics of the harvester are also amazing. A hydrostatic transmission, an engine driven by 210 mechanical "horses" (minimum), a five-liter fuel tank - this is worthy of respect.
As mentioned above, the combine has one drum. Its width is 1.2 meters and its diameter is 80 cm. The area processed by the device is almost 5 square meters. The grain goes through a three-stage cleaning system, which is carried out by seven steps of a straw walker. That, in turn, has four keys. In addition, the volume of the grain bin is 5.5 cubic meters.
Some models of this class are equipped with additional elements. So, for example, the Polesie FS8060 combine has two fuel tanks with a total capacity of 1,100 liters. There are models with an engine power of 330, 213 and even 445 horsepower.
