FD1 SERIES FLEXDRAPER
PRODUCTIVE IN EVEN THE TOUGHEST CROP CONDITIONS
Customers value the MacDon FlexDraper combine heads for their ability to perform in the toughest crop and field conditions across a wide range of combine makes and models. The MacDon FD1 series comes in working widths from 25 to 45 feet. They have unique design features allowing them to closely follow the contour of the field, and thus efficiently feed the combine while minimizing crop loss in a variety of small grain and oilseed crops. Options including in-cab side draper control, upper cross-auger, ContourBuddy gauge wheels, and slow speed transport package allow you to customize your FD1 series draper head to best fit your operation.
Features Include
Active Float System
The simple, mechanical coil-spring system provides instant float response independent of the feeder house. With up to 7 inches of vertical float and up to 24 inches of lateral float, MacDon FlexDraper heads follow the contour of the ground resulting in a tight, even cut and more bushels in the hopper.
Active Crop Flow
Even, heads-first crop flow is crucial for optimizing the threshing capacity of your combine. MacDon’s Active Crop Flow system ensures even the toughest crops are fed head-first into the feeder house and quickly moved to onto the draper, especially important in damp or tough crop conditions. As a result of this feature, you can start earlier and work later into the evening.
Unique Reel Design
The reel on the MacDon FD1 series draper head features a uniquely shaped cam which picks up the crop before it’s cut to gently place onto the draper. Coupled with a split-reel design to follow field contours and maintain a consistent reel-to-cutterbar gap, crop flows efficiently across the cutterbar and onto the draper in even the most difficult field conditions.
FeedMax™ System
MacDon FD1 series FlexDraper heads are designed to easily fit all combine make/models with it's easy-to-install completion package. No matter the color combine you run, MacDon’s FeedMax™ system tailors the speed of the feed auger, auger flighting, and finger patterns to match the feeder housing of your specific combine make/model. The result – up to 20% increase in capacity.
FD2 SERIES FLEXDRAPER
BIGGER, FASTER, FLEXIER
MacDon FD2 series FlexDrapers offer the ultimate in draper header performance with models from 30 to 50 feet in working width. Incorporating the major design components of the legendary MacDon FD1 series, including the Active Float System and the FeedMax system, FD2 FlexDraper heads raise the bar even higher with additional profit-maximizing features.
Features Include
Flex-Float Technology
The contour-following abilities of the FD2 FlexDraper is up to 70% greater than FD1 draper heads. The MacDon 3-section F2 combine draper head feature up to 17 inches of flex while maintaining a consistent reel-to-cutterbar relationship.
New 50" Deep Draper Belts
Feed faster and handle bulkier crops better with MacDon’s 50 inch deep draper belts. Designed to accommodate even the bulkiest and most tangled crops, these wider draper belts ensure an even crop flow without plugging or crop loss.
3-Piece Reel
Optional on 40 inch models and standard on 45 and 50 inch MacDon FD2 series FlexDraper heads, the three piece reel design maintains a closer, more consistent reel-to-cutterbar gap across the entire head in difficult terrain. This feature allows for better cutting of the crop, minimizing head loss while also promoting smoother feeding onto your side draper belts.
ClearCut High-Speed Drive Knife
Wider heads, tough-cutting hybrids, and difficult crop conditions require more power to the cutterbar. MacDon’s ClearCut High-Speed Cutting System delivers more torque through a larger output shaft. Combined with a flywheel and a direct hydraulic drive system, the FD2 draper head delivers the power to cut cleaner at higher operating speeds.
ClearCut Knife Sections
ClearCut knife sections provide over 25% more cutting surface for faster, cleaner cut quality at higher harvest speeds. In addition, fitted bolts make swapping out knives in the field a quick and easy process, further increasing Uptime.
Additional Features
More features include the ClearCut Knife Guards with your choice between Pointed Knife Guards or PlugFree™ Knife Guards, ContourMax™ gauge wheels, the FeedMax™ Crop Feeding System to optimize performance no matter the combine, and the EasyMove™ Transport for a seamless operation. The FD2 is always ready for action.
