MacDon brought its latest FlexDraper design to Ag in Motion on the opening day of the show on July 15.
The new FD2 Plus FlexDraper has two inches of extra flex at the cutterbar allowing it to follow the contour of the ground more efficiently to harvest more crop.

In 2020, MacDon brought out its FD2 FlexDraper design with increased capacity, deeper drapers and a new cutting system.
“Now we’re adding to that with the Plus where we’ve brought out a flexible cutter bar,” said Russ Henderson, product manager with MacDon.
“A lot of competitive flex drapers have a very large flex range,” added Henderson, “But that drops the cutter bar away from the reel, and if the reel and cutter bar aren’t working together, you can be leaving crop in the field.”
The new FD2 Plus FlexDraper comes in widths from 30 to 50 feet.
