How Does the Maize Silage Harvester Work?
The straw harvester and recycling machine work with the tractor. First, the roller at the front of the machine presses down the crop, then the Y-shaped blade harvests the crop, and the hammer inside the machine crushes the straw. The details are:
- When working, the output power of the tractor is transmitted to the harvester through the universal joint.
- The stalk is cut, sucked, and crushed by the high-speed Y-shaped rotating blade.
- Then the crushed straw enters the conveying device under the combined action of centrifugal force and airflow.
- Next, crushed silage is sent to the centrifugal thrower by the conveying device.
- Finally, put the broken straw into the container.
This process ensures uniform crushing and high-quality silage production.

FAQ of Silage Harvester and Recycling Machine
What machine works with a silage harvester?
It is commonly used with a silage baler and wrapper machine for complete silage production.
What are the stubble height and crushing size？
The stubble height is 8-15 cm, and the fineness is 3-5 cm.
Can the silage harvester machine work on wet ground?
No, this will damage the blade. In severe cases, the hoist may be blocked
What is the function of the machine?
Crushing straw and recycling function.
Can I buy only the crushed part?
Yes, you can. It can crush the straw separately (the price will be cheaper). It is recommended to use the hopper car by yourself and work with the crush part.
