Thought through in the smallest detail

The Mais Star* Horizon concept relies on the proven design of the Mais Star* models: Two counter-rotating snapping rolls, each fitted with four knife bars, aggressively pull the corn stalks downward in a controlled motion. The integrated horizontal chopper requires a low amount of drive power to shred the gathered corn straw for faster rotting, virtually eliminating the need for mulching or follow-up chopping.

The optimized position of the horizontal chopper ensures the Mais Star* Horizon models produce a uniformly short stubble even in varying row spacings or when the combine is driven at an angle to the plant rows. The system is suitable for all crops even when infested with weeds or grass, and handles mature, tough plants with ease.

Features may include:

• Automatic Steering System
  The automatic steering system supports the driver during harvesting and keeps the combine harvester and header fully automatically in the corn row if supported by the combine harvester. This ensures optimum results when using the Geringhoff corn header.

• Automatic Height Control
  The ground sensors ensure your Geringhoff corn head - if supported by the combine harvester - automatically follows the ground contours. By optimizing head height according to the relevant terrain, the ground sensors protect the head from damage while saving wear and tear on the row unit assemblies to provide a long corn head service life. The ground sensors are fully automatic, helping to reduce operator strain and minimizing potential errors during harvest.

• Stubble Breaker
  The stubble-breaker help bend down the sharp-edged corn stubble to avoid tire or track damage. Additionally, they support the weight of your Geringhoff corn head to prevent the chopper assemblies from contacting the ground.

• Down Corn Auger
  The optional down corn auger makes harvesting down crops even easier. The hydraulically driven conveyor auger located on the outside bodies (left-hand, right-hand, or double-sided design) of your Geringhoff corn head prevents cobs from being slung out of the corn head. It also keeps corn plants from accumulating on the outer bodies.

• Manual Gearbox
  The manual gearbox makes your Geringhoff corn head even more versatile. As an option, you may select a two-speed or four-speed selector for your standard gearbox. This provides your Geringhoff head with a variety of shiftable speeds to suit various harvesting situations. Enhanced versatility and the optional sunflower kit open new doors in terms of application flexibility for your harvest.
