The combine harvester is the workhorse on farms for harvesting grain crops. It combines three separate operations. They are reaping, threshing, and winnowing brought into a single process these harvesters are used for harvesting such things as canola, sunflowers, flax, barley, rye, oats, wheat ,and others.

Today the modern combine harvester has reaped the benefits of all of the technology that’s been developed since Scottish inventor Patrick Bell invented the reaper in 1826. The removable heads on combines make it easy to switch equipment for particular crops. Some headers are for wheat – called draper headers, and draper headers allow for a feeding process that is fast and even faster than cross augers. In comparison the corn head is equipped with snap roles that when used will strip the stalk.

The parts of a combine harvester are the real cutter, bar header auger, grain conveyor, stone trap, threshing drum, concave, stroll walker, green pan, fan, top adjustable sieve, bottom sieve, telling conveyor, impeller, unloading auger, engine, as well as the drivers cab, straw chopper, and grain tank.

As you can see there are a lot of moving parts in the harvester and as we all know the more moving parts you have the bigger the possibility that something is going to go wrong. That’s why these days when John Deere creates a custom cut harvester for farmers they spend six hours testing it out to make sure all of the moving parts work with no missing parts and no leaks.
