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 deliver 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 fully re-engineered to realize as much as 30% greater throughput than its predecessor.
The linear selecting rollers that includes greater rotational pace and fixed throughput pace be certain that cobs are cleanly picked with out loss beneath all harvesting situations. With solely negligible quantities of residual crop getting into the mix harvester, separation and cleansing is lowered 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 permits greater 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 situations or when cornering, and permit greater floor speeds.
Moreover, the progressive hood design is appropriate for harvesting lodged maize. Lodged maize facet augers are optionally out there. The spacing between the selecting plates may be hydraulically adjusted from the operator’s seat to go well with the harvesting situations.
The wear and tear components fitted within the hoods may be changed simply if needed and the peak of the ideas may be adjusted rapidly with out instruments by the use of 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, selecting curler and chopper speeds.
Within the FC fashions, the folding instances have been lowered by 33%. Moreover, the lowered total size of the hood suggestions within the FC fashions has eradicated the necessity for folding – considerably decreasing establishing and switch instances.
Switching to sunflower harvesting can also be fast and easy. All you must 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 permits it to be mounted to the Jaguar forage harvester for harvesting whole-crop maize silage.
Auto Contour exactly and robotically 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 modify lateral levelling and chopping top on the premise of the knowledge from the sensors. The required chopping top 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 automated attachment recognition, together with upkeep counter and saved cutterbar knowledge reminiscent of finish stops, Auto Contour goal values and far more. This reduces the time required for attachment and establishing earlier than use to a minimal – making certain lightening-fast operational readiness.
