[QUOTE="aussiefarmer, post: 176933, member: 5729"] The sieves and straw walkers in a combine are the major cause of vibration or movement, They run so there's a toss and drop motion moving trash to the rear and letting the heavies drop through , The fan mill pumps air up through these helping trash float and also blowing dust and crushed grain out the back. Without the straw walkers the sieves should run fairly balanced but would have to be made of mesh as they are adjustable tin fingers (hundreds of them ) that bend very easily. I like the concept , thinking out side the box and using the housings and drive system with new insides would start to seem possible. [/QUOTE]
