Cutting units

Cutting unit

Since the takeover of double-blade cutting technology from BUSATIS-Werke, the product range of cutting units manufactured by ESM Ennepetaler Schneid- und Mähtechnik has continuously expanded. The cutterbars from ESM Ennepetaler Schneid- und Mähtechnik are designed for a wide variety of applications. This is also reflected in the wide range of working widths covered by the company's mowers.

Patented cutterbars from ESM

The spectrum of different cutter bars and cutterbars ranges from 0.60 m to 12.00 m. ESM Ennepetaler Schneid- und Mähtechnik supplies customers worldwide and is the global market leader for oscillating mower technology. This is also reflected in an export quota of over 50 %. Particular attention is paid to the development of new and improved cutting units. ESM Ennepetaler Schneid- und Mähtechnik has always been committed to development and research in this area, which is also reflected in the registration of numerous patents and industrial property rights in the field of cutting units.

For example, the "long-stroke double-blade cutting technology" is clear proof that even a traditional product such as the cutter bar can be further revolutionised. Initiated as an R&D project, the long-stroke process now forms a technical basis for cutterbars that are operated in particularly coarse-grained crops at high travelling speeds. This innovation has also been recognised with a patent. As the world's leading manufacturer in the field of double-blade technology, the highest standards are set for the quality of the cutterbars.

Oscillating cutterbars in harvesting technology

Cutterbars with oscillating mowing technology are characterised by their durability, robust and high-precision design and low power consumption. Special attention is also paid to the development of cutterbars that are suitable for large-scale use in industrial harvesting. One example of this is sugar cane harvesting, which is still largely carried out by hand worldwide. The cutting units from ESM Ennepetaler Schneid- und Mähtechnik enable significant savings in time and labour in this demanding harvesting sector. The development of the ESM Cane Thumper® technology has made an important contribution here. Safety and good handling are just as important in this model series as the uncompromising quality of the cutting units.

Cutting unit and environmental protection

Questions of environmental protection, sustainability and species conservation have become increasingly important in agriculture in recent decades. The reasons for this are an increased general environmental awareness and an increased demand for organic products. The debate on global warming has once again focussed on the treatment and maintenance of green spaces. Various measures are required in order to realise the cultivation of farms according to ecological criteria.

Farmers are becoming increasingly aware of the influence of the cutterbar on the quality of the crop. Oscillating cutterbars provide excellent forage that stays fresh for longer, which also improves the quality of the milk and meat. There is also the important aspect of animal and species protection. Oscillating cutterbars offer all animal species found in meadows and fields - from insects and amphibians to mammals - significantly better opportunities to escape. The smooth cut of the cutterbars also allows plants to grow back more quickly after mowing.
