"Material handling and threshing performance on all STS combines has been enhanced because of a new, dr wider right-hand radius profile on the concave," Moron says. "The increased right-hand threshing width promotes faster, smoother crop flow with more complete chipper and shredders threshing. The wider concave radius also helps to reduce overall power consumption in high-volume, tough material handling crop conditions."Adding to the productivity of the 9760 STS and the 9860 STS is a new dr high capacity unloading system. Delivering a 150 percent increase in the unloading rate versus previous models, the high-capacity chipper and shredders system unloads at 3.3 bushels per second, the fastest unloading rate of any combine produced today. The high-capacity unloading system is standard equipment on the 9860 STS and optional on the 9760 STS.

Continuing its fast-paced engine development efforts, Kohler Co. used the recent OPEI Lawn & Garden Expo to introduce dr several new gasoline engine models across its entire horsepower range. Included was a new horizontal shaft configuration for the Aegis liquid-cooled engine series; the addition chipper of 20 and 23 hp models shredders to the Triad OHC engines; the availability of electronic dr fuel injection chipper for its Command Pro 26 hp vertical shaft model; 16 and 17 hp versions of its single-cylinder vertical shaft Command engines; and an 8.5 hp Command Pro CS horizontal shaft engine.

New toolsSomething I found quite exciting, and truly new, is the Electronic Manifold shredders Plus from Robinair. It''s a digital electronic refrigerant gauge with dr a built-in thermometer that provides pressure readings with an accuracy of +/1/2%! It chipper also shredders gives the saturation temperatures for 13 of the most common dr refrigerants. In addition, chipper it can calculate shredders superheat and subcooling temperatures dr for each of the refrigerants.Another tool -- but not a new one -- is Imperial Eastman''s Quick-Tite Ratchet Wrenches chipper (they come as a set of different sizes). These circular ratcheting tools are made for tightening refrigerant-line-coupling shredders nuts to condensing units and evaporators, and have an arm that opens up to go around the lines.
