From the original concept, research and development of the Harrington Seed Destructor has a history over 25 years! Manufactured by De Bruin Engineering for over a decade. No wonder “Seed Destructor” is the standard industry term for mechanical harvest weed seed control!
Featuring an integrated Stone Trap that captures stones, metal, tools, and anything heavy you'd rather not Destruct! The Stone Trap has saved a lot of mills, time and money already, and has improved operator, observer and equipment safety. When it's time, the Stone Trap can easily be emptied by releasing 2 spring bolts to jettison the trapped material. Simpler. Better.
The unique iHSD V12 vertical mill arrangement allows us to use the simplest driveline possible. No gearboxes or 90* transmissions, just 2 belts and 3 inline pulleys drive the iHSD impact mills directly from the engine PTO. Less moving parts, more efficient. Simpler. Better.
The iHSD V12's unique vertical mill arrangement incorporates 2x HSD impact mills fed by a high speed auger. This combination allows the Seed Destructor to absorb peaks in chaff volume without bridging or overloading the mills. The auger feed eliminates bridging and is a is a great advantage over a traditional horizontal mill design. Simpler. Better.
Flexible - manual grain loss counts, chaff lining, stock feed or harvesting green. The iHSD v12 offers several options to bypass the mills. Pull the rear door a bypass (2 minutes), to installing the bypass tray and disengaging the iHSD Drive (10 minutes). There's a bypass option to suit most operational requirements. Simpler. Better.
Harvest Weed Seed Control has become integral in many farm management plans and shortens the conventional list of weed control tasks and treatments. Weed seed control during harvest with iHSD can eliminate burning, carting and other time consuming handling chores. Freeing up time to be more efficient and productive. Simpler. Better.
Less moving parts means less can go wrong. iHSD V12 has improved efficiency, reduced maintenance requirements, and doesn't stop you harvesting - even in a breakdown scenario. At the end of the day if you don't need to use the Seed Destructor, because of its simple interface to the combine you could even temporarily remove it to suit operational requirements. Simpler. Better.
