2024 Drago Series II

The Drago II corn head is specifically designed and engineered to harvest today’s genetics — to capture more yield with unsurpassed durability and ease of maintenance. Drago II is a product of Olimac — a global company, passionately dedicated to creating the highest-quality, best-performing corn heads in the industry.

Low-maintenance, spring-loaded deck plate pistons constantly apply pressure to incoming stalks, automatically minimizing plate gap where yield loss can be significant.

INDEPENDENT ROW UNITS

Deck plate gaps, both in-row and row-to-row, are determined by the size of stalks running through them, compared to hydraulic systems that set the same plate gap for every row unit.

Gathering chains angle apart — front to back — to release stalks and avoid excessive trash from entering the combine.

Each gathering chain has five poly chain guides that extend the life of the chain and are reversible after one side has worn.

Oversized idler sprockets, which reduce chain wear, are forward-placed, allowing overlapping chain fingers to grab and capture stalks for processing — a highly valued feature when harvesting downed corn.

Features may include:

• An industry-first and revolutionary concept in yield capture technology.

• The industry’s longest knife rollers combine with a smaller diameter for added plant processing time.

• Drago gathering chains, which ride on oversized sprockets to reduce wear, are placed in front of knife rollers where overlapping chain fingers grab and capture stalks for processing. This feature is highly valued when harvesting downed corn.

• Features a rear-mounted chopping system that is unlike any other brand. The chopping system — placed well back on each row unit — allows ears to be harvested before the stalk is chopped.

• When you build a corn head for harvest efficiency, you also know the importance of a timely harvest. We know there is never a good time for a corn head not to perform, which is why Drago corn heads are engineered for harvest dependability.
