MacDon FD2 Flex Draper is bigger, faster, flexier
More Capacity. More Speed. More Flex. The all-new FD2 gives growers more of everything needed for harvesting performance from the company that brought you the original FlexDraper.
An entry in the Henty Machine of the Year Award, the FD2 FlexDraper is the evolution of the ground following innovation MacDon first brought to market almost 20 years ago.
MacDon listened and worked with farmers, in the most challenging real-world conditions to result in more sizes, durability and harvesting innovations.
The MacDon brand always has and always will stand for reliability; that's what makes MacDon the preferred choice of more contract harvesters and high-volume operations around the world.
Engineering rock-solid products is how MacDon ensures this reliability, and the FD2 carries that tradition forward.
The FD2 boasts an all-new frame that features a super structured five-sided back tube. This solid backbone creates a durable platform to handle the toughest of conditions.
MacDon's legendary ground-following ability continues with the FD2. MacDon's Active Float System gets coupled with up to 70 per cent more flex for a harvesting experience like never before.
Flex-Float Technology® gets turned up with MacDon's optional ContourMax Contour Wheels. These wheels allow the header to follow the field's contours, leaving a consistent stubble height while cutting from 2.5cm to 45cm+ off the ground.
MacDon's ClearCut High-Speed Cutting System delivers clean cutting at up to 30 per cent faster speeds. MacDon's improved knife drive has more power and new knife section geometry with 25 per cent more cutting surface.
The FD2's all-new frame features an ultra-deep deck with 125cm drapers (20 per cent deeper than the previous model). The FD2 delivers more capacity of smooth heads-first feeding in the tallest bushiest crops it can get its reel fingers on.
New for the FD2 is a 15m header, making the FD250 the highest capacity FlexDraper yet featuring a triple reel. The new offerings don’t stop there; controlled traffic farms are covered by the 12.5m double reel FD241.
