600C Corn Heads / StalkMaster™ / Frontier

600C Corn Heads power through tough corn like no tomorrow.

Bigger fi elds, higher yields, and hybrids with tougher stalks all add up to greater harvesting challenges. Meet them head-on with the 600C standard and StalkMaster™ chopping corn heads. Material handling is a core strength of the 600C lineup. Redesigned stalk rolls and larger gathering chains help crop fl ow smoothly from the row units to the cross auger and into the combine feederhouse. At the same time, less trash is fed through the combine, which further boosts its productivity. Another advantage of the 600C headers is that they get more grain into the machine. Redesigned gathering chains, auger, and trough result in fewer tossed ears, less ear shelling, and less free grain in the trough. Despite the demands placed on it in the fi eld, the 600C is made to withstand the pressure easily. Durable design and construction, featuring Perma-Glide™ technology, ensure that the 600C will retain its rugged good looks. When it’s time for maintenance, easy servicing gets you back in the fi eld quickly.

High-Speed Corn Harvesting with the 600C Corn Heads – Improved material handling – Increased grain savings – Improved residue processing – Higher overall harvesting performance Stalk rolls now feature eight blades. The additional blades, combined with faster speed, help provide more complete residue breakdown.

One look at our massive gathering chains and larger sprockets, and you’ll know both are made to turn in a long-lived performance. They’re heavy-duty, ultra reliable, and in the case of the sprockets, greaseless too!

Serviceability on the 600C is a snap! Ready access to maintenance points lets you fi nish quickly so you can resume harvesting and maximize your productivity.

The 600C StalkMaster™ Chopping Corn Heads

The StalkMaster Corn Head Chopping System lets you size and chop corn stalks while harvesting, eliminating second-pass operations and saving time, fuel, labor and additional tractor operating costs. A single gearbox per row, along with two rotary chopper knives that spin at over 2,200 RPM, efficiently size and chop corn stalks into 4- to 6-inch pieces. Knives can easily be removed, if desired, and are doublesided for extended use.

StalkMaster is available on the 606C and 608C with 30-inch spacing, and the 612C with 20-, 22-, and 30-inch spacing.

1. Prevent ears from dropping through the head with ear savers. They’re made of elastic, abrasion-resistant polyurethane. This versatile material is sturdy for long-lasting performance, but still fl exible enough to allow corn to pass through gently without knocking the ears off the stalk.

2. On the CH2208, two cast aluminum gear cases per row unit protect the heavy-duty bearings and feature O-ring seals to avoid oil from escaping or debris from entering. Slip clutches on each gear case safeguard the drive system when plugging occurs.

3. Header Height Sensing (HHS) gives you greater control and consistency for maintaining row unit height in uneven terrain.

4. On the chopping row unit, cutting blades are heat-treated and wear-resistant to offer superior durability for harvesting in tough conditions. Plus, they’re reversible to increase performance life.

Frontier Corn Heads: Wider spacing narrows the gap

Looking for that perfect fi t to meet your harvesting demands? Frontier now offers two special options of headers. The CH2208 Chopping and the CH2112 NonChopping Corn Heads. Each model is uniquely designed to provide increased row spacing of 36 or 38 inches on 8-row and 12-row units to match your farming practices. Confi guration is only half the benefi t. Frontier Corn Heads allow for high levels of performance to help you get more out of each harvest. So what do we mean by performance? Well, both the CH2208 and CH2112 feature a fast, effi cient cross auger that helps reduce ear loss and improves dry trash and down corn feeding. Rugged knife rolls give you the ideal stalk cut and sizing. And large gathering chains and sprockets keep the system running smoothly, one season after the next. Let’s cut to the chase. With the CH2208, corn producers get a chopping head that can withstand tougher stalks for more effi cient processing and greater residue management. Plus, the CH2208 one-pass chopping system saves time and fuel to reduce operating costs.
