2024 Kuhn Quad Rotor GA 13231
With impressive working widths, ranging from 27’7” to 48’3”, KUHN GA 13231 and GA 15231 quad-rotor rotary rakes offer the ultimate capacity.
KUHN's quad-rotor rotary rakes have the size and performance for even the most demanding operations. Working widths from 27' 7" to 48' 3" cover large areas quickly, while double-bent tine arms create fluffy windrows while gently handling crop, preserving nutrient content. KUHN's Masterdrive® GIII double-reduction gearbox's ability to move heavy wet crop, handle dry hay gently, and neatly windrow forage is unrivaled in the industry.
KUHN GA 13231 and GA 15231 quad-rotor rotary rakes reduce maintenance costs due to their comprehensive list of innovative features, including the hydraulic rotor drive. These rakes are easy to operate and adjust. All settings are made hydraulically from the tractor seat via the ISOBUS monitor.
Features may include:
Double-Curved Tine Arms- Hyper-tangential, double-curved tine arms are designed to form fluffy and straight windrows for superior raking quality at higher speeds. Fluffy windrows allow more air movement through the crop promoting fast and uniform drying!
3D Rotor Articulation- Suspended on an articulation joint and independent from the main frame, the rotors can pivot in all directions allowing close ground following over undulating terrain. The tines collect the crop with the greatest precision.
Jet Effect- A hydraulic cylinder at the front of the rotor head controls the “touchdown” when lowering the rotor. In a similar way to an airplane, the rear touches first with the front following. This ensures that the tines do not strike the soil.
Adjustable Working Width- The working width is adjusted from the ISOBUS monitor, making this adjustment easy for the operator. The front rotors can be moved independently from the rear rotors to choose a desired working width. Then adjust your rear rotors to create a windrow width to best match your harvesting equipment.
Raking Height Adjustment- The raking height is easily adjusted from the operator’s seat. This can be done simultaneously for the two front or the two rear rotors, as well as individually for each single one. The current height is indicated both on the terminal’s display and the rotor undercarriage.
Self-Contained Hydraulic Unit- The hydraulic unit of the GA 13231 and GA 15231 is mounted on the pivoting headstock of the machine frame. In this way the primary drive shaft is always aligned to the tractor, even in tight corners. Moreover, you can adapt the PTO speed from the cab according to type and volume of forage. The hydraulic drive considerably simplifies the machine and provides multiple solutions for improved work.
Boost Function- From the ISOBUS monitor, the rotation speed of the front rotors can be increased by 20% compared to the rear rotors. The boost function projects the forage toward the center of the machine, spreading the forage across the width of the rear rotor. This puts less stress on the rear rotor, allowing them to create a fluffy and uniform windrow. This is ideal for perfecting the forage drying process.
