The KC001 is a compact, heavy-duty forage harvester designed for efficient cutting and chopping of herbage, corn stalks and straw for silage and feed production. It features a 30-blade cutting system, gear drive transmission and user-friendly operation.
Key specs include model PD-HM90, harvesting width 0.9 m, required power 35 HP, main shaft speed 2160 rpm, 30 blades, adjustable stalk chopping length 3–8 cm, throwing distance ≥3 m, weight ~400 kg and overall dimensions 1250 × 1350 × 3150 mm.
Typical capacity is ≥3 acres per hour (depending on crop density, field conditions and operator), with a reported recovery rate of ≥85%.
It is suitable for corn stalks, crop straw, grasses and other herbage used for silage and fodder. It's primarily designed for forage and straw harvesting and collection.
Chopping length is adjustable between 3 and 8 cm, letting you tailor particle size for different silage/feeding systems and animal types to improve packing, fermentation and feed intake.
The KC001 is designed to leave a stubble height of approximately 100–150 mm for clean harvesting and improved regrowth management. For site-specific requirements, confirm settings with the operator manual.
The machine can throw harvested and chopped material horizontally up to about 3 meters, which facilitates collection into trailers, bunkers or windrows.
The harvester is specified for use with a tractor of around 35 HP. It is typically connected via the tractor's PTO and three-point hitch—confirm PTO speed and hitch category compatibility with your tractor before purchase.
It uses a robust gear drive system for reliable power transmission and a 30-blade high‑durability cutting assembly for clean, precise cuts at high shaft speed (2160 rpm).
Regular maintenance includes checking and tightening fasteners, inspecting and replacing blades as needed, greasing bearings, checking gear oil levels, cleaning debris from the cutting chamber and ensuring PTO and driveline components are in good condition.
Inspect blades before each harvesting season and periodically during heavy use. Replace blades when they become dull, chipped or bent to maintain cut quality; replacement frequency depends on crop abrasiveness and hours of use.
Warranty and after‑sales support details are not specified in the product sheet. Ask the seller or distributor for warranty terms, spare part availability and local service options before purchase.
The spec sheet lists an FOB price of USD 3300 per unit. Actual landed cost will depend on shipping, tariffs, insurance and local import fees—confirm final costs with the supplier.
Yes. Always read the operator manual, wear appropriate PPE (gloves, eye protection, hearing protection), keep bystanders clear, shut off the tractor PTO and engine before servicing, and avoid reaching into the cutter area while the machine is running or coasting.
Contact the supplier or distributor to request parts lists, service manuals and training options. Provide model (PD-HM90 / KC001) and serial number to ensure correct parts and support. Many suppliers can ship blades and wear parts on request.
