A Claas Orbis 600 Forage Header is a specialized agricultural attachment designed for harvesting forage crops, particularly corn, by cutting and preparing plant material for collection and processing. Claas is a leading European manufacturer of agricultural machinery, known for producing high-performance harvest equipment used across diverse farming operations and crop types.
This unit is configured as a 20-foot, 8-row corn header equipped with down-corn drums, a feature that enables efficient cutting and feeding of standing or lodged corn into the harvester. The header is fitted with knives at approximately 90 percent new-style specification, indicating recent or recent-equivalent blade maintenance and replacement. A hydraulic contour system is included, allowing the cutting platform to follow ground topography for consistent stubble height and reduced material loss during operation. A trash sickle is also fitted to manage and direct unwanted material away from the cutting mechanism.
The header accepts either 494–502 PTO (Power Take-Off) drive configuration, with 491–492 drive also available as an alternative, allowing compatibility with a range of harvester chassis. The machine is described as being in very good condition, reflecting careful use and maintenance. It was manufactured in 2014 and is located in Iowa, USA.
