Scope of agricultural machinery

Direct and separate harvesting of grain and agricultural crops, such as corn and sunflower, will be successfully carried out by the Akros 530 fifth-class combine, which is also called RSM-142. It is considered a leader in the agricultural industry.

The increase in technical equipment and modernization of the units made it possible to increase the productivity of the harvester and reduce the cost of threshed grain. The amount of losses for unharvested grain does not exceed 5% - this is the highest result for modern technology.

Harvester "Akros 530" is quite large and roomy compared to the previous machines "Don 1500" and "SK-5 Niva".

How the Akros 530 combine works

The work of grain harvesting equipment is associated with the performance of three main operations: harvesting, threshing and cleaning.

Threshing and separating device of the Akros 530 combine

The main unit of the Akros 530 harvester is a high-strength header with knives, which are driven by a planetary gearbox. The hydraulically driven reel describes a complex trajectory, managing long stalks and preventing them from winding. The harvester can be turned on in reverse mode.

Threshing is performed by a large drum, which has no analogues. Its angle of coverage is 130°. The device makes 1045 rpm to grind even wet grain and twisted stalks.

The grain is shipped in its pure form, and for this it is cleaned. The straw enters the straw walker, and the grain goes to further processing. The structure of the straw walker has 7 cascading levels that produce straw stalks without damage. Chopping of straw with knives in a special mechanism is provided. The straw mass is then distributed over the field. The grain enters the sieve and goes through two stages of processing. Due to oscillations, grain is distributed with simultaneous blowing by a fan. Clean grain is collected in a bunker.

Sensors at several levels monitor the grain content in the straw so that the operator can change the threshing speed along the way.

Distinctive features

Akros 530 is positioned by the manufacturer as a high-performance technique. This combine is designed to work on large areas, with high and medium yields of grain crops. According to farmers, in one season the equipment is able to harvest about 1,200 hectares. Consider the key features of the combine.

The ACROS design includes one threshing drum, complemented by a five-key seven-stage straw walker. This scheme of the threshing and separating device allows you to select up to 95% of the grain. The residual mass is sent to a two-stage fine cleaning system. This allows you to minimize the loss of grain and work with a fairly high efficiency. Please note that it outperforms even combines with a double-drum cleaning system.

The equipment is able to work almost non-stop. This possibility is provided by the JAN CONTROL device. This is a deep deck drop system to solve the problem of clogging when harvesting difficult crops. Separately, it is worth mentioning the SMART LAUNCH unloading system. This innovative solution helps to completely empty a 9,000 liter hopper in less than 2 minutes. The high-speed unloading scheme eliminates clogging of the augers. First, the unloaders are turned on, then the feed auger at the bottom of the bunker.
