Quantum Plus
Suitable for universal use
The Quantum Plus is the all-rounder product from WINTERSTEIGER's high-end Quantum range. It achieves excellent harvesting results with all kinds of small seeds, as well as with corn and soybean crops. As a result, this machinecan meet the very toughest of modern field trial requirements while also promising excellent prospects for the future of plant breeding and research.
As well as providing all the same functions as the Quantum Core plot combine, the Quantum Plus boasts even greater comfort and various options for crop logistics. On top of that, it is even more user-friendly. Consequently, the Quantum Plus is positioned one configuration level above the Quantum Core, the base of WINTERSTEIGER's product line.

High-performance crop logistics of the Quantum Plus
Separation of grain and air via innovative airfoil separator
Grain tank
The grain tank is a standard option and comes in two different sizes with a capacity of 700 or 1,100 liters. It is installed in the center section of the machine between the front and rear axles to ensure even weight distribution. A flap in the bottom allows for easy cleaning of the tank. A compressed air connection is also installed next to the upper grain tank door and can be used for a compressed air nozzle to simplify cleaning.
Performance features of the grain tank:
Electronic level indicator and window to the cabin
Fast unloading speed for emptying the entire tank in less than 2 minutes
Hydraulic, folding unloading auger with an overhead loading height of 3.2 m, optionally 4.2 m
Easy cleaning for seed multiplication and basic seed harvest
Sampling methods
Quantity-controlled sample definition
Sample definition with the Quantum Plus is clear-cut and offers a wide range of options. The "Easy Sample" module in the harvesting software is used to predefine the type of sample or combination of samples.
The sample volume is determined using a simple, manual process. This can also be done without the use of tools on the side of the machine.The sample volume is adjustable within a certain range. The following sample definition variants are supported:

Timed sample definition
Sample definition using a time-controlled sample flap allows larger, plot-homogeneous samples to be taken. Once a defined time has been preset on the on-board computer, the material can then be sampled by the operator using the sampler in the cabin. The maximum sample size of the time-dependent sample is 20 liters, the repeatability of the sample amount is approximately five percent.
Sampling in the cabin
Sampling is performed in the cabin as per the sample definition. The operator presses a button to start the process. An optional foot switch is also available to keep both hands free for sampling.The sampling system is dust-free, so the cabin does not become contaminated.If the harvested seeds amount to less than 20 liters, the system can be used to bag the entire plot in the cabin.

Optional extras for the Quantum Plus plot combine
WINTERSTEIGER NIRS system solution for crop analysis
The presentation of the harvested material has a significant influence on the quality of the NIRS analysis data. With the aid of WINTERSTEIGER's system solution, the harvested material passes the measuring head in a controlled manner, thereby ensuring a representative analysis of the entire plot. Thiis way of presenting the harvested material is suited for all kinds of crops from rapeseed to grain and legumes to corn.
The Easy Harvest harvesting software also automatically assigns the NIRS analysis data to the corresponding plot and saves it. The WINTERSTEIGER NIRS system solution comes equipped with POLYTEC contact measuring instruments as standard. Other NIR measuring instruments are available upon request.
The Quantum family by WINTERSTEIGER
Quantum family of combines consists of three models in a modular design. Designed with user needs in mind, the plot combines set new standards in terms of throughput, user-friendliness, and crop logistics.
The Quantum Core – a mid-size, high-end plot combine – completes the range, meaning that we have the right machine for all plot sizes and budgets. Like its predecessors, the Quantum Plus and Quantum Pro, the Quantum Core can be adapted to suit your individual requirements.
