Claas is placing its newest technology maize pickers within the Rovio 4 collection to work within the 2024 maize harvest.
That includes a brand new hood design with strengthened drive and additional technical enhancements, they now convey even better productiveness, decrease losses and enhanced chopping high quality to the maize harvest.
Throughout the Rovio 4 collection, Claas has added a next-generation maize picker with six, eight and 12 rows to its vary of entrance attachments for Evio, Trion and Lexion which replaces the earlier Corio maize pickers. It has been utterly re-engineered to realize as much as 30% increased throughput than its predecessor.
The linear choosing rollers that includes increased rotational velocity and fixed throughput velocity be certain that cobs are cleanly picked with out loss beneath all harvesting circumstances. With solely negligible quantities of residual crop coming into the mix harvester, separation and cleansing is decreased to a minimal.
The 4 bolt-on knives per choosing curler have a wear-resistant tungsten carbide coating. Elevated overload safety for the choosing gearbox and consumption curler allows increased crop volumes to be processed.
The redesigned hood suggestions with a flat working angle of 17 levels guarantee mild crop dealing with even beneath troublesome circumstances or when cornering, and permit increased floor speeds.
Moreover, the revolutionary hood design is appropriate for harvesting lodged maize. Lodged maize aspect augers are optionally out there. The spacing between the choosing plates may be hydraulically adjusted from the operator’s seat to swimsuit the harvesting circumstances.
The wear and tear elements fitted within the hoods may be changed simply if vital and the peak of the information may be adjusted rapidly with out instruments via a easy screw mechanism. The hoods can be folded with out instruments. Having only one central oil chamber drastically simplifies upkeep operations.
The repositioned, built-in horizontal choppers assure exact, even chopping even at excessive floor speeds. Tungsten carbide-coated knives sharpened on three sides obtain exact, efficient chopping with a low energy requirement – supported by optimally coordinated feeder chain, choosing curler and chopper speeds.
Within the FC fashions, the folding occasions have been decreased by 33%. Moreover, the decreased general size of the hood suggestions within the FC fashions has eradicated the necessity for folding – considerably lowering organising and switch occasions.
Switching to sunflower harvesting can be fast and easy. All it’s important to do is flip the feeder chain spherical after which match inflexible knives to the choosing plates together with aspect hood extensions and a raised rear wall panel. A brand new adapter additionally allows it to be mounted to the Jaguar forage harvester for harvesting whole-crop maize silage.
Auto Contour exactly and routinely adjusts the transverse and longitudinal motion of the entrance attachment to the bottom contours detected by a sensing bracket – now mounted one row additional in, enabling it to work reliably even on the crop margins.
Hydraulic rams on the feeder housing steady alter lateral levelling and chopping peak on the idea of the data from the sensors. The required chopping peak may be simply set in Cebis.
Automated steering is supplied by the built-in Auto Pilot system, which scans two rows of vegetation concurrently with its central sensors and interprets this enter into corresponding steering actions. The electromagnetic system identifies and compensates for gaps within the crops and operates with row widths of as much as 80 cm.
All Rovio 4 maize pickers are outfitted with multi-couplers and computerized attachment recognition, together with upkeep counter and saved cutterbar knowledge akin to finish stops, Auto Contour goal values and rather more. This reduces the time required for attachment and organising earlier than use to a minimal – guaranteeing lightening-fast operational readiness.
