2021 Capello Diamant Base

2021 Capello Diamant

Taking inspiration from the shape of the levers which guide the struts as they fold — somewhat like the shape of a horseshoe, our designers christened the frame "HS Series". A system of levers which minimizes the oil needed for inversion by the harvester, even with more than 8 rows. But how can light weight equal strength?

The DIAMANT combine frame is proof that this is possible. It is designed to make the structure light yet solid, perfectly sized to accommodate large flip-up headers. It can, of course, be used in conjunction with combine harvesters of any kind, and the working angle can be adjusted to meet individual requirements.

The design of the new DIAMANT is revolutionary and highly innovative in its class. Increasingly lightweight yet stronger than ever, with fine-tuned mechanics and revamped design, it offers unprecedented standards in terms of operation and production performance.

Thanks to the adjustment system for working position, the header attachment is always at the correct angle to the ground.

The new extra-robust polymer hoods mark another breakthrough in the story of CAPELLO headers. The sinuous design encourages smooth crop flow in any working conditions, making harvesting quick and easy, and exceeding all expectations. All hoods can be removed in a few easy steps without the need for spanners of other tools — just the hands — making the header quick and convenient to clean.

To safely tackle the most demanding laid crop harvesting conditions — where the header has to be held as close as possible to the ground — we have designed an anti-shock system, in other words an automatic divider release system: following a knock, the system immediately releases the point, thus protecting it and the entire hood from damage and preventing the hassle of breakages and costly and time-consuming replacements. The hood can be dismantled without special tools, making maintenance of the header convenient and easy.

The exclusive Anti Shock System allows the automatic release of the divider during an impact, protecting divider and body.

With DIAMANT, even on-road travel is a pleasure. One of the essential features of CAPELLO headers — which has always been a common denominator in their evolution — is their superior compactness on the road: a distinguishing trait that makes for even easier handling and improved visibility from the cab.

DIAMANT's beating heart is the row unit: a concentrate of technology that encapsulates decades of experience in the field all over the world. The dynamics of harvesting have been broken down and analyzed step by step and each element has been painstakingly designed down to the smallest detail.

The cast aluminum casing is lighter but stronger, while lubrication is optimized and constant: state-of-the-art transmission technology. The special torque damper, created by CAPELLO, ensures protection of the drive shafts by limiting the torque, even in the most extreme conditions. In the new chain tensioner system, all bearings are protected with lifetime lubrication.
