Shear Processing with TST 360
A proven concept, exclusive to Dion, the optional processor rolls of the Scorpion 300 uses a shearing effect to process the particles and pulverise the kernels in corn silage. With a differential speed ratio of 67%, the highest on the market, the particles are torn lengthwise and the grain is processed with low crushing pressure. This reduces compression forces and improves KP bearing life all while reducing power requirements.
The lower 10” roll is paired with the smaller 6” top roll, both turning at close to 4000rpm. They are positioned directly in the crop flow trajectory to eliminate direction changes and lower energy consumption. Obtain the desired level of silage processing at any time by simply adjusting the clearance of the processor rolls, in a few seconds, with a single wrench.
The conversion time between corn silage configuration and haylage is quick and efficient, while requiring a single ¾” wrench. The top roll is completely removed by sliding it out towards the inside of the harvester where it can be stored onboard to reduce handling. No major parts need to be removed or displaced. It is done with a single wrench, with less effort and all adjustments are preserved for a quick reinstallation.
