Framen & wheel flexible, rigid cutter bar
The new XF (XtremeFlex)
As already known from the TruFlex, the Geringhoff XtremeFlex has a three-part frame and a three-part reel. In the new generation, however, flexibility is increased by a further 50%. The XF is equipped with a rigid knife bar and is therefore designed for farms with a very high proportion of cereals and rapeseed in their crop rotation.
An active height control is included as standard and is calibrated via a separate terminal. The central knife drive enables a lightweight design that reduces wing weight and maximizes responsiveness on uneven terrain.
The patented design of the side sections guarantees a uniformly close distance to the outer reel tines and thus optimizes the crop flow. Furthermore, the newly developed intake auger with its increased speed (24%), floating bearings and up to 34 intake fingers ensures a more even crop flow and higher throughput in high-yielding crops.

Features
Centralized Drive Design
The XF combines all drives in the centre. This allows the power to be focused where it is needed for optimum harvesting. This precision technology results in lighter wings (and end plates) for quick adjustment and adaptation to the respective slope of each field.
- Reel drive
- Central knife drive
- Hydraulic pumps
- Oil tank in frame
- Cross auger drive
Features
Floating Feeding Auger
Featuring a new floating design, the large diameter (62,5 cm) feeding auger provides 4 cm of height compensation to maintain optimal crop flow to the combine in any crop or field conditions. Engineered to handle heavy and voluminous harvesting conditions, the feeding auger boasts 24% faster intake speeds and 60% more torque than the TruFlex models. Tool-less auger tine adjustment allows for quick adaption during harvest.
Features
Wide Belts for Crop Flow
The XF utilizes wide belts designed to accommodate high-volume harvesting and larger combines. At 221 cm, the XF's center belt is 18 cm – 22 cm wider and is the widest reversable center belt on the market. Paired with deep (105 cm) side belts that provide uniform crop flow, crops are gently and efficiently transferred to the combine via the large feeder house opening. Reversible center belt and side belt speeds are controlled via in-cab terminal.
Features
Enhanced Reel and Tines
3-section reel and 3-section frame provide consistent distance between the lightweight flip-over reel and the cutter bar. The improved reel drive provides increased efficiency and higher torque (+50%). Reel tine spacing of 10 cm provides optimal crop flow and tine angle is adjustable to 9 different positions for harvesting any crop in any condition. New angled sweeper tines at end of the reel help capture every grain and reduce losses.
Crop Dividers
Geringhoff offers multiple crop dividers to meet different harvest needs. Thanks to a tool-free design, dividers are quickly and easily changed to adapt to any crop and field condition.
Key Advantages
- Clean cutting edges
- Helps reduce crop losses
- Quick and tool-free design prevents downtime
Canola Kit
Canola Kit
The optional canola kit allows an efficient and almost loss-free harvesting of canola and big crops. It consists of two side-mounted vertical knives and a large cross auger. The components are hydraulically driven and can be individually switched on or off.
Key Advantages
- Optimal crop flow due to the large cross auger
- Brightly colored side knives holder for optimal visibility
- Quick and tool-free change of side knives prevents downtime
- Reduce crop losses with side panel extension
Maximize Your Yields
Integrated Air System (IAS)
Especially sensitive crops that tend to produce volunteers during their final phase of ripening require special harvesters that feature the appropriate technology to minimize losses caused by seeds and pods that have escaped the reel. That's why our Integrated Air System (IAS) is available on both the TruFlex and TruFlex Razor draper heads.Utilizing controlled airflow, our state-of-the-art IAS is precisely designed to maximize yields for sensitive crops. By blowing air in a controlled way, a large percentage of the seeds and pods that have escaped the reel are carried to the draper belt and feed to the threshing system.
Comparison
With IAS
Controlled air flow gently blows grains to draper belt.
Comparison
Without IAS
Grains are lost and scatter away from the draper belt.
Superior Solution for Sensitive Crops
IAS Advantages
- Specifically designed for harvesting very sensitive crops
- Maximizes yield by gently blowing dropping grains back to the belt
- All airlines integrated in the head - no exterior lines to damage pods
