If you’ve ever watched good grain go out the back of your combine, you know how frustrating sieve loss can be. But did you know that uneven sieve loads are often the root cause? When crop loads aren’t distributed evenly across the sieve, separation efficiency takes a hit, and valuable grain is lost. There’s a way to fix it.
Why Sieve Loss Happens
Sieve loss occurs when too much material is concentrated on one part of the sieve, overloading certain sections while leaving others underutilized. This imbalance leads to:
- Poor Separation – Overloaded sections struggle to properly separate grain from chaff, leading to increased loss.
- Reduced Combine Efficiency – Uneven crop loads force the machine to work harder, lowering overall performance.
- Lower Yields – Every kernel that exits the back of the combine is money left in the field.
The Solution: Razors Edge Concaves
To prevent sieve loss, you need a system that ensures an even crop distribution before it reaches the sieve. That’s where Razors Edge Concaves come in. Designed for optimal threshing and separation, Razors Edge Concaves promote an even crop flow, preventing overload and improving grain retention. Here’s how:
- Balanced Crop Distribution – By ensuring a consistent crop load across the separator, Razors Edge reduce uneven sieve loading.
- Enhanced Threshing Efficiency – The design allows for improved material flow, reducing bottlenecks that contribute to sieve loss.
- Greater Combine Performance – With better crop distribution, your machine runs smoother, leading to increased efficiency and reduced wear.
The Bottom Line
Sieve loss is a major issue, but it doesn’t have to be. Upgrading to Razors Edge Concaves ensures an even crop load, reduces sieve loss, and maximizes your harvest potential. Don’t let an uneven load rob your harvest – invest in a solution that keeps grain where it belongs.. Call us at 1-855-612-7006 for more information.
