Our silage harvesting machine is an integrated all-in-one agricultural equipment that completes standing crop cutting, fine chopping, air-blow conveying and direct truck loading in one continuous pass.
It delivers stable working capacity ranging from 0.3 to 1.0 hectares per hour, and can process a full spectrum of high-biomass silage raw materials including whole corn plants, napier/elephant grass, alfalfa, forage sorghum, ryegrass and sugarcane tops.
Three Main Configurations for All Terrain & Budget Demands
We have three models to match varied field conditions, plot sizes, and tractor matching requirements, covering all mainstream customer demands.
Wheeled Self-Propelled Silage Harvesting Machine
Equipped with independent 50–150 HP self-contained engine and rubber wheel chassis, this model features a maximum transfer speed of 20 km/h for fast relocation between scattered farmlands. Its operating efficiency hits 0.5–1.0 ha/h, perfectly suited for flat, open large-scale corn and grass planting bases. The sealed panoramic cab with optional air conditioning lowers operator fatigue during long harvesting shifts, while the 3.5 m³ onboard material bin enables short-distance temporary storage before unloading.
| Model Name | 4QZ-1800 Self-propelled Silage Harvesting Machine |
| Overall Dimension in Working State (L×W×H) | 5400×1900×3800mm |
| Rated Power of Matched Engine | 150 HP |
| Rated Speed of Matched Engine | 2400r/min |

| Wheelbase | 2200mm |
| Operating Speed Range | 2-5km/h |
| Designed Chopping Length | 15mm |
Crawler Self-Propelled Silage Harvesting Machine
The widened rubber track design cuts ground pressure significantly, delivering outstanding traction on muddy paddy fields, hilly slopes and rain-soaked lowlands where wheeled models easily get stuck. With a working capacity of 0.3–0.8 ha/h, it has become the top export choice for tropical and subtropical regions with high annual rainfall. The compact body realizes flexible turning, adapting to narrow field paths and small fragmented plots common in Southeast Asian smallholder farms.

| Crawler working speed | 8 km/h |
| Crawler width | 350 mm |
| Adjustable stubble height | 10–40 mm |
| Factory default stubble height | 70–80 cm |
| Standard chopping length | 15 mm |
| Adjustable chopping length range | 10–40 mm (adjust by blade quantity & rotation speed) |
| Suitable napier grass height | 2.5–3 m |
| Material bin volume | 3.5 m³ |
| Bin load capacity | About 1 ton |
| Crop yield per mu | 3–4 tons |
| Machine processing capacity | 10 tons/hour |
Tractor-Mounted Double-Disc Silage Harvester
This 3-point hitch PTO-driven attachment requires an 80–100 HP tractor as power source, greatly lowering initial purchasing investment for small and medium growers. Lightweight construction (820 kg total weight) and easy disassembly support multi-purpose tractor use throughout the year. Its double-disc cutting header operates independent of crop row spacing, simplifying harvesting of mixed grass and corn interplanting fields, with steady output of 0.3–0.6 ha/h.
| Model | 9Q-140 |
| Connection Method | 3-point suspension and PTO |
| Overall Dimension | 3870×3310×3720 mm |
| Total Weight | 820 kg |
| Matched Power | 80-100 HP |
Core Structural & Performance Advantages
Adjustable Precision Chopping System
Hardened alloy rotary cutters guarantee uniform shredding; chopping length can be freely tuned from 10 mm to 40 mm by adjusting blade quantity and rotation speed.
Optimized fragment size improves silage compaction and anaerobic fermentation, locking in more crude protein and fiber nutrition for cattle, sheep and dairy livestock feed.
An optional corn kernel cracker is available for whole-plant maize harvesting to boost feed digestibility.
High-Speed Hydraulic Discharge Mechanism
The curved long-distance blowing chute delivers a 3–5 m throwing range, directly loading chopped silage into transport trucks without intermediate manual handling.
Full hydraulic control regulates header lifting, unloading bin tipping and walking speed, with smooth response and simple one-hand operation to cut down operating errors.
The optimized longitudinal transmission structure eliminates redundant drive belts, reducing breakdown frequency and daily maintenance expenses.
All-Terrain Adaptive Header Design
The double-disc rotary picking header cuts cleanly with low stubble height (adjustable 10–80 mm) and minimizes crop waste.
Wear-resistant auger feeding rollers prevent jams when processing tall 2.5–3 m napier grass or thick corn stalks.
Reinforced thick steel frame and anti-corrosion coating extend service life under long-term exposure to wet green crop residues.
Wide Application Scenarios
- Large dairy & beef cattle farms: Mass whole-corn silage production for year-round livestock feeding.
- Tropical pasture bases: Continuous napier and elephant grass harvesting in rainy muddy terrains.
- Small family growers: Cost-effective tractor-mounted unit for scattered sorghum and alfalfa plots.
- Agricultural cooperatives: Shared wheeled self-propelled machines for centralized seasonal harvesting.
Flexible Customization & After-Sales Support
We offer personalized configuration upgrades including air-conditioned cabs, larger material bins, enhanced kernel crushing devices and multi-width cutting headers to fit regional crop characteristics.
All machines undergo strict factory testing before shipment, with full spare parts supply and remote technical guidance for overseas clients. Compact packaging fits standard 20ft/40ft containers to lower international logistics costs, making our silage harvesting machine a cost-efficient long-term investment for global forage producers.
Conclusion
This silage harvesting machine can work seamlessly with a full set of downstream forage‑processing equipment. You can pair it with silage balers , chaff cutters , and feed mixers to build a complete workflow from field crop harvesting to finished livestock feed production.
