Engineered to Cut Close
As global harvesting specialists since 1880, Geringhoff knows what it takes to create exceptional harvesting equipment, and the TruFlex range proves this point.
Geringhoff is based in Ahlen, Germany, with over 140 years of experience specialising in the development of high class and innovative harvesting header fronts that are “head of the class no matter the crop”. The company was founded as a family business and continues to operate as such, now in its fifth-generation.
TruFlex Header Fronts
TruFlex Range
Waringa Distribution is the Australian distributor of the Geringhoff TruFlex Draper Header Fronts.
Geringhoff’s TruFlex and TruFlex Razor draper header fronts harvest cereals, canola, soybean and specialty crops, whilst adapting perfectly to paddock conditions.
This header perfectly contours to uneven surfaces.
Featuring a three-piece frame and reel with a completely flexible cutter bar, the TruFlex Razor flexes to every contour of your paddock to cut razor-close.
Available in 12.2m & 13.6m working widths.
This is an ideal header for regular crops in flatter land.
Based on the TruFlex Razor design, the TruFlex header front also features a three-piece frame and reel, however it has a more rigid cutter bar and four height sensors.
Available in 12.2m & 13.6m working widths.
Key Features
Innovative Cutting System
The TruFlex Razor is the first draper header front to combine a truly flexible cutter bar with a flexible frame, and segmented reel allowing for perfect contouring to uneven surfaces.
The cutter bar remains nearly parallel to the reel segments to deliver uniform cutting and smooth crop flow across the entire head.
The TruFlex and TruFlex Razor feature a centre knife drive. Placing the knife drive in the centre of the header reduces the weight on the outside of the frame, improves responsiveness on the wings and reduces power consumption.
- Smoother feeding and crop delivery
- Reduced vibration across the entire head
- Hydraulic pressure valve with SCH cutting system for lasting performance
- 1,200 strokes per minute
The lightweight flip-over reel is made from high quality aluminium. It has been designed for an unobstructed view of the middle of the head for perfect control and full visibility of the entire head.
The TruFlex uses lightweight and robust belts instead of heavy augers.
The belts feed the crop in a very consistent flow into the combine for better machine utilisation, productivity and efficiency.
- Operators can adjust the belt speed in-cab to optimise crop flow
- No peak loads in the crop feed system
- More consistent crop feed boosts machine utilisation
The TruFlex header fronts are designed to be lightweight and sturdy. Side wings are designed to be lighter for quicker adjustments and improved ground following.
Combined with narrow side panels means no crop pushing and minimised losses at the edges of the front.
Height control sensors and hydraulically controlled depth wheels enables optimum ground following for harvesting in almost any terrain.
The TruFlex Razor has eight height control sensors and the TruFlex has four height control sensors.
Exclusive Feature
Variable Integrated Air System
The innovative Variable Integrated Air System option significantly minimises losses that are incurred from crops being scattered away from the draper belt.
The unique air system is fully integrated and forms an integral part of the cutter bar. Instead of using exterior tubes that are routed in front of the reel where they would engage with the crop, all air lines are integrated into the front.
How Does it Work?
The V-IAS is developed for sensitive and short-stemmed crops to minimise losses that are incurred on the cutter bar.
Controlled, uniform air flow is blown from slots right behind the knife towards the belt. By blowing air consistently, a large percentage of the seeds and pods that are at risk of escaping the reel are carried to the draper belt and fed to the threshing system, instead of dropping to the ground.
The V-IAS offers an adjustable flow rate that is adapted to specific grain weights by varying the fan speed – a feature that eliminates any mechanical changeovers to adjust to different crops.
