Summary: | The new technology involves the use of a special device for preliminary deformation of corncobs installed in the sloping chamber of a combine harvester. Installing the present device will allow to increase the service life of a harvester, to reduce grain losses and get fuel economy in the process of corn harvesting for grain by reducing stress on a concave and as a consequence, less wear. Also, when using a special device for pre-deformation of corncobs, it is possible to reduce grain crushing during threshing. |
