Track Combine harvester is. It is a type of agricultural machine used for harvesting crops in large-scale farming operations. It is a specialized version of the conventional combine harvester, featuring tracks instead of wheels for improved traction and reduced soil compaction. This design makes it well-suited for challenging field conditions, especially in wet or hilly terrains.
The primary purpose of a track combine harvester is to efficiently harvest various crops, such as wheat, corn, soybeans, rice, and more. It combines three essential functions in a single operation:
Cutting: The front of the track combine harvester is equipped with a cutting header, which cuts the standing crops at the base and feeds them into the machine for further processing.
Threshing and Separation: Once the crops are cut, they go through a threshing and separation mechanism. This process separates the edible grains from the stalks and other plant materials.
Grain Collection: The separated grains are collected in a large grain tank, reducing the need for frequent unloading and increasing harvesting efficiency.
Additionally, track combine harvesters are equipped with a cleaning system to remove any remaining debris, chaff, or dust from the harvested grain before it is stored in the grain tank.
