Double blade mower
Double-blade mower
Mowing with double blades has a number of advantages. The versatile mowing system enables clean, fatigue-free and gentle mowing in a wide range of applications. Small, hand-held devices with double blades are ideal for trimming hedges in private homes, but are also frequently used in municipal landscape maintenance. Other applications such as landscape and waterway maintenance, trailed mowers or use in harvesting technology can also be realised without any problems. Double-knife mowers are also very important in commercial agriculture when mowing large areas for hay and forage harvesting.
Double-blade mowers in agricultural use
In commercial agriculture, different types of mowing work are required depending on the type of farm. For the farmer, mowing is a key moment in the season, as the yield and the success of his work are largely determined by a good harvest result. Depending on the mowing task, special requirements are placed on the mower. A maize or sugar cane field places different demands on the cutterbar than a mountain pasture or special applications such as lettuce or herbs.
ESM double-blade mowers impress in agricultural use with their reliability, versatility and excellent crop quality. The high cutting force enables gentle and time-saving mowing. Thanks to the continuous improvement and further development of the mowing systems, ESM has succeeded in making the double-blade mower a universally applicable mowing system. Large fields and pastures can be mowed just as gently and quickly as demanding areas in alpine regions or special applications in agriculture, water maintenance or landscape conservation.
Advantages for organic farming
Farms that have set themselves the goal of using particularly environmentally friendly and animal-friendly methods in the production of food or other agricultural products also place higher demands on mowing than purely commercially orientated farms. The focus here is on protecting wild animals such as birds, amphibians, small mammals and insects living in the mown material.
The use of double-blade mowers has proven to be ideal for near-natural mowing on organic farms. In contrast to other mowing methods, double-blade mowers allow all animal species on the pasture to be protected. The clear design allows the farmer to recognise larger mammals in good time. Insects, small mammals and amphibians are also protected by the clean and gentle cut and also have the opportunity to fly away or flee in good time.
