NEXCO new dimension in harvesting

Share this item

Developed entirely in-house by NEXAT, the NEXCO harvesting module opens up new dimensions in harvesting technology. It makes the carrier vehicle in combination with the NEXCO threshing module an efficient and powerful combine harvester.  The NEXCO demonstrated its harvesting capabilities in Canola in Romania and Sorghum in Brazil.

The NEXCO (Next Combine) harvesting module plays a central role in the Widespan CTF System, where optimal straw distribution is crucial. A wide range of headers are available, including Draper headers, maize headers and sunflower headers, all renowned for their efficiency and reliability, with a working width of 15.2 m (50 ft). The 6 meter (19.6 ft) wide linkage frame ensures stability and height control of the headers. With its 1100 hp, the NEXCO is the most powerful combine harvester in the world.

With the NEXCO’s revolutionary threshing system, the Dual Tangential Axial Flow concept, the long rotor running transverse to the direction of travel, divides the crop into two even flows. The crop flow is guided efficiently and gently. Two cleaning units, one on each site, with a total area of 11 m² (118.4 ft²), ensure clean processing of the crop, a high area performance and minimal losses.

The NEXCO’s corn tank has a capacity of 32 m³ (908 bu) and can be emptied quickly in less than 1 minute, which minimizes downtime. In many cases the NEXCO can load directly onto a truck at a transfer speed of 600 l/sec (158 gal/sec), eliminating the need for transfer trailers. This saves on machine, labor and fuel costs. It also takes significantly less time to overload the crop.

The straw is optimally distributed to ensure the build-up of an even layer of soil organic matter. The modular design of the NEXAT system enables the modules to be changed quickly and without tools, so that maximum capacity utilization and effectiveness is achieved by quickly changing the suspended module for cultivating the stubble directly after the harvest.
