The screw conveyor is of single-piece construction — which offers maximum flow speed of the material into the feed channel of the harvesting machine even under the most unfavourable harvesting conditions. The screw is protected by a coupling that limits the torque to the screw upon contact with stones or other foreign bodies and protects all turning parts against overloading. The simple construction of the sunflower header reduces wear and tear and lowers maintenance costs significantly.
