Integrated Air System (IAS)

Gentle Yet Powerful

At Geringhoff, we know that in order to minimize crop losses, extra care is needed when harvesting delicate and sensitive crops that are prone to seed shedding. That's why we developed the Integrated Air System (IAS) for our draper heads. The fully integrated system blows air through tubes fitted with outlets just behind the cutter bar. As the air travels from the cutter bar to the draper belt, it gently blows seeds that might otherwise fall off and instead of hitting the ground, the seeds are gently carried to the belt and sent into the threshing system.

IAS Features

Air System

Now mounted on the back left of the draper, the fully integrated IAS is driven by the main gearbox so there are no belt drives or second drive shafts. The new left-mounted placement improves air distribution and reduces the need for maintenance.

IAS Features

Air Intake

The model year 2025 IAS fan features a redesigned rotory sieve with improved outlet openings to reduce dirt and debris, keeping the air intake cleaner and providing more efficient air flow. Air volume is increased by 30% compared to prior IAS models.

IAS Features

Air Flow

IAS provides consistent air flow from behind the knives at a uniform speed to carry crop that would be lost back to the belt. In fact, a third-party study by Norddeutsche Pflanzenzucht and the Thünen-Institut found that the IAS increased harvested crop by up to 40%!

IAS Features

Superiority to Other Systems

The IAS is fully integrated into Geringhoff draper heads, precisely but gently blowing air from behind the cutter bar instead of using exterior tubes that are routed in front of the reel where they present a risk to the crops. Allowing it to capture more crop and help increase yields more than that of aftermarket add on options.

Fully Integrated System

Unobstructed Crop Flow

Unlike competitor solutions that use external tubes running in front of the reel where they are at risk of obstructing the crop flow, the unique design of Geringhoff’s IAS offers a fully integral air system with no risk of obstructing the crop flow. It offers an adjustable flow rate that is adapted to specific grain weights by varying the fan speed – a feature that eliminates any mechanical changeovers to adjust to different crops.

Comparison

With IAS

Controlled air flow gently blow grains to draper belt.

Comparison

Without IAS

Grains are lost and scatter away from the draper belt.
