Softrak Cut + Collect Pro

Product Description

The Softrak Cut + Collect Pro brings a heavier-duty, twin-cut harvesting head to the ST140 carrier, for operators who need more cutting power than the standard direct-cut system.

At its core is the Loglogic TC1700 Twin Cut Harvester, a double-chop forager head with 36 cutting flails and a full-width auger that keeps material flowing evenly to the cutter head, even in windy conditions, for a clean throw into the 12m³ collection bin.

The TC1700 direct-cuts wetland habitats such as reed, grasses and sedges, and handles tougher growth like light heather and brambles, or picks up previously cut material. Its side cutting flails give a clean, even cut without the suction effect of a conventional forage harvester, reducing soil contamination and minimising the pickup of invertebrates - an important consideration in nature conservation work.

Extensive use of high-strength Swedish steel keeps the head lightweight yet strong, with replaceable 3mm Hardox wear plates on the secondary chopping housing and a Hardox first chute section for maximum wear resistance. An onboard grinding set sharpens the full length of the chopping knives to an even edge without needing to dismantle them from the flywheel, and chop length can be adjusted by fitting 4 or 8 knives to the secondary cutting rotor.

Electric chute control is fitted as standard, along with a chute-mounted camera and an under-body reversing camera, both displayed on a monitor in the cab.
