4.12- Speed of the drums

The working speed of the drums is determined by the combination of the gears
used in the transmission.
The rotation synchronism between the drums and the feeding drums generates
an ideal crop processing flow, guaranteeing the cut quality and avoiding overload
problems that can, for example, cause the safety pins to break.
At the top of each drum there is a gearbox through which, by changing a pair
of gears, you can change the speed of the drums.
In general:
Higher drum speed is used for crops with little volume and lower speed for
more bulky crops.
