Wide spread or narrow, fine cut or extra fine – we do it ALL with our revolutionary Maximum Air Velocity (MAV) residue manager.

The MAV puts the no in till – it’s the only seedbed preparation equipment you’ll need.

How does it work?

A fine cut for better seeding performance

The development of Redekop's Maximum Air Velocity (MAV) residue manager is a breakthrough in crop residue management. The MAV's revolutionary design uses two zones for cutting and spreading, rather than a traditional rotor design that depends on the cutting blades to also spread the straw.

The MAV's cutting zone has 4 rows of 100% straight boron steel, beveled-edge, long life blades mounted in pairs on the rotor.

For optimum cutting performance, a high density counterknife (tight knife bar) spacing is also optional.

 

Uniform spreading from 20 to 45 feet

The airflow-generating zone uses Redekop's patented fan blades tucked away outside of the cutting zone. Specially designed shrouds build up air speed around the six fan blades at either end of the rotor. The MAV generates extra-high velocity air speeds up to 90 mph to blow the finely cut straw and chaff uniformly across the cutterbar width for unmatched spreading performance.

 

Easy adjustments

The MAV residue manager allows you to easily fine-tune the spread to match changing field conditions. The fan blades are removable to allow you to initially set your average spread width. In the field, the easily adjustable fins and tailboard fine-tune the spread for uniform residue distribution across the width of the cutterbar. Complete replacement choppers feature independent left and right rapid adjustment with Redekop's exclusive split tailboard design.
