The XWD-16 Row Corn Head is a premium 16 row corn head for sale, with hydraulic-adjustable picking plates that adapt on-the-go to varying ear sizes and densities. As a versatile maize header for sale, it offers customizable row spacing from 20 to 30 inches—ideal for narrow-row and conventional configurations, similar to industry-leading variable-spacing models
The XWD-16 row corn head is Xinwanda designed for the CLAAS DEERE and CASE combine harvesters, the row width can customized from 20-30inches(50-75cm). With special grade structural steel used for the main beam and tips with injection molding process, the corn head have more strength and less weight in harvesting.
Lightweight reinforced folding frame
The use of high-quality, high-strength special-shaped steel and high-wear-resistant sheet metal plates can resist vibration and impact, avoid structural distortion and failure due to insufficient strength, so as to improve the durability and stability of the main frame and extend its service life.
Horizontal conveying spiral blade
By adjusting the three-dimensional gap of the spiral blades to ensure the feeding of different crops, it can easily cope with changing harvest conditions. The large-diameter spiral conveyor blades ensure smooth conveyance when harvesting high-yielding crops or when the main machine is moving quickly. The height of the spiral conveyor blades is adjustable, and it has the remarkable characteristics of protecting crops, large throughput, smooth operation, and easy adaptability to high-yield crop harvesting.
Injection molding process
The ridge divider, chain cover and some wearing parts are all made of nylon casting, which has the advantages of light weight, reliable quality, easy disassembly and assembly, can be replaced individually, and low maintenance cost. Stainless steel wear-resistant strips are added to the vulnerable parts to improve wear resistance and increase harvesting efficiency.
Aluminum alloy gearbox
All gearboxes are made of aluminum alloy die-cast housing, which has the characteristics of low noise, light weight, high transmission efficiency, good heat dissipation, etc. The application of a high proportion of aluminum alloy components realizes the lightweight design of the whole machine.
Automatic tensioning chain
The chain is set with automatic tensioning function, and the chain will automatically jump when overloaded, so that the chain and sprocket are always in the best condition and effectively protected to prevent foreign objects from entering and avoid damage to the header gearbox and combine harvester.
Hydraulically adjustable gap picking plate
A reliable hydraulic system is used to adjust the gap between the ear picking plates, so as to achieve timely adjustment of the gap between the ear picking plates. It can be adjusted at any time according to user needs and accurately adapt to the harvest of different varieties of corn. It is safe, reliable, non-blocking and highly adaptable.
Modular ear picking mechanism
It adopts an integrated overload protection gear transmission, a single set of power transmission, a small box load, and is not easy to damage; by adding or reducing the single unit of the ear picking mechanism, a corn kernel harvester with different cutting widths can be obtained. Two four-blade adjustable stem pulling rollers, no broken stems when picking ears, low seed knocking rate, fast stem pulling, no entanglement, and no roller blocking.
Hydraulic Deck Plate Adjustment
The hydraulic deck plates can be adjusted according to stalk diameter, ear size, crop moisture and field conditions. Proper adjustment helps reduce ear loss, limit unwanted stalk intake and maintain smooth crop flow.
Buyers should confirm whether the deck plates can be adjusted directly from the combine cab and whether an additional hydraulic circuit is required.
Feeding Performance in High-Yield Corn
A large-diameter horizontal auger transfers harvested ears to the feederhouse. Its position and clearance can be adjusted for different crop volumes and harvesting conditions.
For high-yield or high-moisture corn, buyers should confirm the auger size, operating speed, feederhouse opening, overload protection and compatibility with the combine reverser.
Modular Row Units and Overload Protection
Each row unit uses an independent transmission system with overload protection, making inspection, repair and parts replacement easier.
Before ordering, buyers should confirm the stalk roll type, gearbox lubrication requirements, chain and sprocket specifications, overload protection method and spare row-unit availability.
Harvesting Lodged Corn
Performance in lodged corn depends on lodging direction, ear height, crop moisture and ground conditions.
Optional equipment may include crop lifters, side augers, lodged-corn reels, low-profile divider points and automatic header height control.
Optional Stalk Processing System
The header can be equipped with standard stalk rolls, a stalk crusher or an integrated stalk chopper, depending on the configuration.
Buyers should confirm whether the chopping system is standard or optional, its cutting height, additional power requirements, blade replacement method and included spare parts.

Custom Row Spacing from 20 to 30 Inches
The XWD 16-row corn head can be customized for narrow-row and conventional corn planting systems. Available row-spacing configurations range from approximately 20 to 30 inches, or 508 to 762 mm.
Common configurations may include:
20-inch / 508 mm narrow-row corn
22-inch / 560 mm row spacing
28-inch / 700 mm row spacing
30-inch / 762 mm conventional row spacing
Changing the row spacing affects the overall working width, folded transport dimensions, structural weight and adapter requirements. Buyers should provide the actual measured row spacing rather than relying only on nominal planting data.
For the best row-following performance, the planting row spacing, planter accuracy and harvesting direction should be considered during model selection.

Confirm Combine Compatibility Before Ordering
Compatibility cannot be determined by combine brand alone. The XWD 16-row corn head can be configured for selected CLAAS, John Deere, Case IH and New Holland combines, but the adapter and drive system must be matched to the exact combine model and production year.
Please provide the following information when requesting a quotation:
Combine manufacturer and model
Combine production year
Feederhouse opening dimensions
Available hydraulic pressure and flow
Hydraulic coupler specifications
Electrical connector requirements
