Combine harvester GS12A1 PRO / GS12A1 PROFI

The Polesie KZS 1218 combine harvester is a machine with a very high throughput. At a little more than 12 kg/sec, this combine can process more than 18 tons of grain (wheat) in an hour. This is what allows him to work quietly with very high yields of almost all grain crops.

Such high performance can be achieved precisely due to the fairly high power of its engine (approximately 330 hp), a threshing scheme with two drums, as well as a pre-accelerator for feeding the entire threshed mass, increased separator areas and an excellent cleaning system. The direct competitor of this model is the ACROS 580 combine.

At the same time, the combine works perfectly at high humidity when harvesting difficult-to-thresh crops.

The high-performance PALESSE GS12 combine operates effectively in a wide range of grain crop yields. Grain mass throughput of at least 12 kg/s, grain productivity (wheat) from 18 tons per hour or more - these main indicators are achieved through the use of a 330-horsepower engine, a double-drum threshing system with a preliminary accelerator for feeding grain mass, and an increased area separation and cleaning systems.

At the same time, the combine is well suited for working in adverse conditions when harvesting difficult-to-thresh crops with high humidity, and is also combined with other types of equipment, for example, the T-150K.

The combine harvests the non-grain part of the crop according to the following technological schemes:

• chopping and spreading straw across the field;
• laying straw in a windrow.

The combine harvester is equipped as standard with a grain header with a working width of 7 m. The following can be supplied as options:

• grain headers with working widths of 6, 8 and 9 m;
• grain picker;
• device for harvesting rapeseed;
• a set of equipment with a header for harvesting corn for grain;
• modified soybean header;
• device for harvesting sunflowers.

Often a corn header can be used.

The PALESSE GS12 combine is certified for compliance with the requirements of the European Union with the right to apply markings.

The grain harvester KZS-1218 “PALESSE GS12” is a high-performance combine with a 1500 mm wide threshing and separating device, which uses acceleration of the flow of grain mass before threshing. At the same time, a distinctive feature of the PALESSE GS12 is the large diameters of the accelerator drum and the threshing drum (600 and 800 mm) - larger than in any other thresher of a similar type. Due to this, the combine provides stable threshing when harvesting “difficult” grains, including clogged, high-straw and wet grains. A special all-wheel drive version of the combine is effective on soils with low bearing capacity.

The efficiency of using the combine is increased with the use of additional adapters for harvesting various crops, by re-equipping the thresher (harvesting corn for grain and sunflower), the thresher and the chassis (harvesting rice). Depending on market preferences, the combine can be equipped with engines from different manufacturers.

A distinctive feature of the PALESSE GS12 is the increased diameters of the accelerator drum and threshing drum: 600 and 800 mm, respectively. In combination with the increased area of ​​the double concave, this made it possible to make the threshing path longer and the threshing itself more gentle. The result is a high level of threshing and separation, including on tall crops.

The accelerator drum increases the speed of movement of the grain mass coming from the feeder conveyor, bringing it closer to the rotation speed of the threshing drum. The accelerator is equipped with a primary concave, due to which threshing and separation begin already at the stage of flow acceleration. In addition, the teeth of the accelerator drum distribute the mass evenly. This reduces the load on the threshing drum and main concave. This makes threshing stable and efficient, giving the combine an advantage in harvesting curled and wet grain.

The push-button keyboard provides control of all working parts of the combine - from the header, feeder and thresher to the cleaning and grain unloading system.

The System Control information and control system based on an on-board computer combines the functions of information support, registration, statistics, management and control. The computer finds the optimal ratio of adjustments depending on the crop being harvested, its yield, humidity and weediness. This is a reliable assistant, the importance of which increases as cleaning conditions become more complex. When starting, the on-board computer automatically checks the circuits of sensors and used mechanisms for serviceability; it is possible to view troubleshooting tips and links to a diagram with circuit numbers.

The spacious, noise-vibration-proof Comfort Max cabin with excellent visibility is equipped with air conditioning and an automatic monitoring and control system based on an on-board computer. A high level of comfort, including a workplace organization system, maintains the high performance of the combine operator during a long work shift.

The cutting device with durable stamp-welded fingers with upper and lower cutting edges, with an up/down system of alternating segments, gives an exceptionally clean cut and ensures self-cleaning. The planetary gearbox used to drive the cutting apparatus of the header provides a high cutting frequency (1108 strokes/min) with smooth operation and minimal wear, increasing productivity.

The use of a header with a working width of 9 m in the PALESSE GS12 combine, model KZS-1218-35, makes the use of the combine effective in fields with medium and low yields, reducing the number of passes across the field and fuel consumption. To work with a 9-meter header, the combine is equipped with an unloading auger, the length of which is increased by 1 meter, which ensures free access for vehicles for unloading grain.
