Each farmer has at least one rotary mower in his farm. Without it, it is almost impossible to quickly prepare feed. The use of this tool in the agricultural industry significantly accelerates the productivity of harvesting and the speed of harvesting feed. In addition, the work of this tool almost does not require the cost of physical strength. How good is a rotary mounted mower, how does it work and how much does it cost? Find out the answers to these questions right now.
What is she like?
Rotary mounted mower is the most common type of forage mounted mounted tools that are used not only far abroad, but also in many CIS countries. Such a great popularity is explained by the fact that this mechanism has a lot of advantages that allow it to maintain a leading position in the ranking of agricultural equipment.
Benefits
A tool such as a mounted rotary mower operates at increased translational speeds, which ensures fast and high-quality mowing and grass collection. On the field, such a tool neatly puts the mowing in a row, which is very convenient for loading and transporting hay. It should be noted that the rotary mounted mower (including KRN-21) can effectively mow not only high-yielding plants, but also lodged grasses.
Principle of operation
Each tool of rotary type when mowing grass performs rotational movements of the tool, which are provided by the revolving shafts of a working walk-behind tractor or tractor. Thus, these devices use the power of movement of the tractor in order to subsequently actuate their own mowing mechanisms.
In the process of collecting grass, several types of power transfer can also be involved:
- Wedge-shaped.
- Conical.
- Cardan.
- Gear spur gear.
The rotary mounted mower itself (“Zarya” is one of the best in this segment) is a kind of timber, to the upper part of which special rotors are fixed (hence the name “rotary”). Each mechanism, mounted on top of the “beam”, is equipped with moving knives that carry out fast beveling of plants.
The use of rotary type of mowing makes such tools the most effective among all its other competitors. So, for example, if ordinary grass mowers use only 30-35 percent of the tractor’s energy to collect grass, then rotary mowers use about 60-65.
Cost
At the moment, the price of a rotary mower can be from 5-10 to 130 and more than thousand rubles. Why such a wide range of prices? The fact is that the mounted rotary mower can be used not only on tractors, but also on walk-behind tractors . Attachments for the latter are always several tens of times cheaper compared to accessories for tractors. Hence, such a substantial breakdown between the cost of a professional and unprofessional mower for mowing farmland.
