The demand for high-quality silage and green fodder is driving a revolution in agricultural mechanization. For farm owners focused on maximizing feed quality and dealers seeking a top-tier, reliable product, the Meidi 9QS-4500T Self-Propelled Green Fodder Harvester stands out as the benchmark.
The 4500T is more than just a machine; it's a strategic investment. It integrates powerful performance with intelligent design, bringing industry-leading technology to farms across China and in key export markets like South America, Eastern Europe, and North America.
The core mission of any harvester is to deliver speed and quality, and the 9QS-4500T excels on both fronts. Its capabilities are defined by a potent combination of engine power and advanced harvesting technology:
Exceptional Capacity and Power: Equipped with a formidable 353 kW (480 ps) engine running at a rated 1900 r/min, the 4500T achieves an operational capacity of 100 tons per hour, or an impressive harvest efficiency of ≥28 kg/s. This brute force is delivered through a robust hydrostatic drive travel system, ensuring smooth, responsive operation even under maximum load across operating speeds of 2 to 10 km/h.
Massive Harvesting Scope: The machine features a 4450 mm (4.5-meter) wide header, utilizing a disk-type cutting knife, allowing for sweeping coverage of fields. This width is instrumental in reducing passes and maximizing daily output—a critical factor for large-scale farm efficiency.
Precision Cutting Adjustment: Feed quality hinges on consistent chop length. The 4500T features an adjustable gear system offering six theoretical chopping length options, from a short 6 mm for highly processed feed to a long 22 mm for specific silage requirements. This level of control ensures the final product meets the exact nutritional needs of livestock.
For dealers, the 4500T's specifications provide a clear, competitive edge against rivals like the Claas or John Deere choppers, affirming Meidi's position as a top brand in Chinese forage harvester sales.
What truly elevates the 9QS-4500T above standard forage harvesting equipment is its commitment to maximizing feed value. The heart of its innovation lies in the feed processing system:
High-Efficiency Crushing System: The machine is equipped with a dedicated corn kernel crusher that is proven to achieve up to a
97% crushing degree of corn seeds.
Crushing the kernels is paramount in silage production because it makes the grain energy fully available to the animal during digestion. Without this step, most kernels pass through the animal undigested, wasting feed and lowering the return on investment.
Superior Processing Mechanism: The chopper utilizes a roller-type straw chopping mechanism with 20 moving cutters, working in concert with the crusher. This system ensures not only the precise chopping of the green fodder but also the crucial crushing of the kernels, guaranteeing superior quality silage ready for fermentation.
Ergonomics Meets Intelligence: The 4500T is defined by intelligent design. It features an ergonomic cabin and advanced electro-hydraulic control systems that allow operators to manage all functions with ease and precision, minimizing fatigue and improving operational consistency—a vital detail for farm owners managing long harvesting seasons.
Meidi's integration of precision machining and automated production ensures that every component, from the hydrostatic drive to the crusher, delivers reliable and durable performance, fulfilling the company's promise of a quality-led strategy.
Investing in the 9QS-4500T is not just purchasing machinery; it's entering a long-term partnership with a company known for comprehensive support and established market leadership. Meidi’s reputation, solidified by its 9QS series ranking top in domestic sales and market share from 2013 to 2017, provides confidence to both dealers and large farm owners.
Proven R&D Leadership: The technology behind the 4500T is backed by a mature R&D system and recent advancements verified in practice, ensuring customers are operating with industry-leading solutions.
Comprehensive Service Network: Meidi supports its flagship product with a widespread sales and service network across major agricultural regions. This robust infrastructure guarantees that clients receive full-spectrum support, from pre-sale technical consultation and in-sale operational training to critical after-sale maintenance services.
Timely Supply and Partnership: While production cycles typically run six months, Meidi strives to deliver products within 7 days of order receipt when stock is available. This commitment to inventory management and rapid fulfillment is key to dealer viability and farm planning.
The Meidi 9QS-4500T Self-Propelled Green Fodder Harvester is the essential tool for modern farming. By combining unmatched harvesting capacity, kernel-crushing precision, and reliable after-sales support, it provides the efficiency and feed quality required to drive profitability in the global agriculture sector.
