A disc mower gearbox is a component used in agricultural machinery, specifically in disc mowers. Disc mowers are implements attached to tractors and used for cutting hay or grass in agricultural fields. The gearbox is a critical part of the disc mower, responsible for transmitting power from the tractor’s power take-off (PTO) to drive the cutting discs.

The disc mower gearbox typically consists of a housing that contains gears, shafts, bearings, and other internal components. The power from the tractor’s PTO enters the gearbox and is transferred to the gears inside. These gears, arranged in a specific configuration, provide the necessary speed and torque to drive the cutting discs effectively.

The gearbox’s primary function is to increase the rotational speed of the PTO input to match the optimal cutting speed of the disc mower blades. It also provides the necessary torque to ensure the cutting discs can effectively cut through the vegetation. The gears within the gearbox are designed to withstand the high loads and stresses encountered during the cutting process.
