No compromise on chop quality
New Holland recognises the variety of chop length requirements indicated by nutritionists and
livestock specialists. Depending on the crop and the feedstuff mixing and distribution system,
there are specific needs in terms of chop quality and crop processing. New Holland FR9000
forage harvesters offer exactly what is required whatever the crop and the customer preference.
Chop length control at your fingertips
The HydroLoc™ feed roll drive system provides instant
and on-the move chop length adjustment to suit your
specific requirements. The efficient hydrostatic drive
for the feed rolls results in a more consistent chop
length thanks to a more uniform crop alignment
resulting from an optimum speed synchronisation
between attachment and feed rolls.
For perfect silage, the consistent feed roll to cutterhead
distance adds to the consistency of the chop length.
Chopping length “à la carte”:
a wide choice of the number of knives
Whatever the crop, the FR9000 can
have the exact number of knives
to provide, in combination with
the HydroLoc™, the precise
chopping length required.
