PS 517 is a specialized attachment for harvesting sunflower, designed for retrofitting grain combines of various models from domestic and imported manufacturers. It consists of a set of components that replace the standard reel and add stem lifters across the width of the reaper, enabling efficient cutting and threshing of sunflower heads in the combine's thresher. The attachment is suitable for reapers with widths from 4 to 9 meters and is compatible with a wide range of combines, including John Deere, Case, Claas, New Holland, Massey Ferguson, Don-1500, Vektor, Slavutich, Palissye, and others.
The main advantage of PS 517 is increasing sunflower harvesting efficiency with minimal yield losses. Thanks to its design with added stem lifters and the ability to cut sunflower regardless of row spacing, the device reduces load on the thresher, improves seed and stem separation, and reduces fuel consumption. Installation on the reaper is quick and convenient without requiring modifications to the reaper itself, ensuring time and resource savings.
Technical specifications of PS 517 include a cutting width of 6.7 meters, working speed from 10 to 15 km/h, cutting height from 400 to 800 mm, and weight of approximately 640 kg. The device is certified and protected by patents, confirming its quality and reliability. PS 517 is an effective solution for increasing efficiency and economy during sunflower harvesting on various types of grain combines.
