Claas is placing its newest technology maize pickers within the Rovio 4 sequence to work within the 2024 maize harvest.
That includes a brand new hood design with strengthened drive and additional technical enhancements, they now carry even better productiveness, decrease losses and enhanced chopping high quality to the maize harvest.
Inside the Rovio 4 sequence, 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% larger throughput than its predecessor.
The linear selecting rollers that includes larger rotational velocity and fixed throughput velocity make sure that cobs are cleanly picked with out loss underneath all harvesting circumstances. With solely negligible quantities of residual crop getting into the mix harvester, separation and cleansing is diminished to a minimal.
The 4 bolt-on knives per selecting curler have a wear-resistant tungsten carbide coating. Elevated overload safety for the selecting gearbox and consumption curler allows larger crop volumes to be processed.
The redesigned hood suggestions with a flat working angle of 17 levels guarantee light crop dealing with even underneath troublesome circumstances or when cornering, and permit larger floor speeds.
Moreover, the progressive hood design is appropriate for harvesting lodged maize. Lodged maize facet augers are optionally accessible. The spacing between the selecting plates will be hydraulically adjusted from the operator’s seat to swimsuit the harvesting circumstances.
The wear and tear components fitted within the hoods will be changed simply if crucial and the peak of the ideas will be adjusted rapidly with out instruments via a easy screw mechanism. The hoods will also be folded with out instruments. Having only one central oil chamber significantly 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, selecting curler and chopper speeds.
Within the FC fashions, the folding occasions have been diminished by 33%. Moreover, the diminished total size of the hood suggestions within the FC fashions has eradicated the necessity for folding – considerably decreasing establishing and switch occasions.
Switching to sunflower harvesting can also be fast and simple. All it’s a must to do is flip the feeder chain spherical after which match inflexible knives to the selecting plates together with facet 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 mechanically 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 regulate lateral levelling and reducing peak on the premise of the knowledge from the sensors. The required reducing peak will be simply set in Cebis.
Computerized 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 reminiscent of finish stops, Auto Contour goal values and way more. This reduces the time required for attachment and establishing earlier than use to a minimal – making certain lightening-fast operational readiness.
