PÖTTINGER cutter bars

R0.00 excl VAT

At the heart of PÖTTINGER disc mowers is the cutter bar, proven over thousands of cuts in the field. NOVACAT disc mower cutter bars are developed and built at the company’s main plant in Grieskirchen – a quality product made in Austria. First-class cutting quality, low drag resistance and strength are the trademarks of these cutter bars. Engineered details guarantee you reliable operation and contribute significantly to an extended service life.

Optimum crop flow – clean forage

The rounded, low profile front edge lets the cutter bar glide smoothly over the ground and separates the crop tidily from the sward. The conveyor effect has been improved by the rounded conical surfaces of the mower discs. The crop flows through smoothly and uniformly, maintaining full cutting capacity in all operating conditions. Integrated paddles keep the cutter bar surface clean. PÖTTINGER guarantees trouble-free downhill mowing, even on steep slopes.

The sleek cutter bar is only 28 cm deep, perfect for enabling the best possible ground tracking. The mower blades rotate very close to the surface of the cutter bar and the counter knife. The optimised overlap of blade paths ensures a clean and uniform mowing pattern.

Engineered to impress

The oval, low profile mower discs are made of hardened fine-grained steel. Quick-change blades make maintenance easy.

Optional feed cones

These improve the crop flow and enable swath formation.

The spur gear drive runs in a straight line with virtually the same sized gears. All gears are hardened and machined for smooth running and a long service life.

Wear resistant skids

Wear skid

Wide skids made from hardened boron steel to resist impact and prevent the build-up of soil. Because the underside of the cutter bar is smooth with contoured skids inside and outside, it protects the sward even when cornering.

As an option, you can fit additional wear skids to protect the underside of the cutter bar. The bolted skids can be easily changed if required.

Optional high-cut skids can be mounted to increase the cutting height from 50 to 120 mm. Their large radius and wide surface area make them especially wear resistant.

  • High cut skid + 20 mm, the universal skid especially for stony soil.

  • High-cut skid + 40 mm, especially for whole crop.

  • NEW: High-cut skids also for both outer skids.

Top quality

Cutter bar made from best quality steel

The cutter bar is made from the best quality steel. The metal plate is precision laser-cut and robot-welded before machining at the state of the art CNC machining centre.

  • The blade pin is bolted to the mower disc. This can be replaced cost-effectively if required.

  • The counter knife is clamped in place, meaning it is also easy to replace.

Easy with quick-change blades

The bearing flange and fittings are reliably protected by rubber o-ring seals. The gears and bearings can be removed as one unit, while the idler gears are easily removed through the openings – it could not be more straightforward.
