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 deliver even larger productiveness, decrease losses and enhanced chopping high quality to the maize harvest.
Inside 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 fully re-engineered to attain as much as 30% increased throughput than its predecessor.
The linear selecting rollers that includes increased rotational velocity and fixed throughput velocity be sure that cobs are cleanly picked with out loss underneath all harvesting circumstances. With solely negligible quantities of residual crop coming 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 allows increased 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 increased 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 might be hydraulically adjusted from the operator’s seat to go well with the harvesting circumstances.
The damage elements fitted within the hoods might be changed simply if vital and the peak of the guidelines might 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 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 lowered by 33%. Moreover, the lowered total size of the hood suggestions within the FC fashions has eradicated the necessity for folding – considerably lowering establishing and switch occasions.
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 allows 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 alter lateral levelling and slicing peak on the premise of the knowledge from the sensors. The required slicing peak might be simply set in Cebis.
Computerized steering is offered 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 geared up with multi-couplers and automated attachment recognition, together with upkeep counter and saved cutterbar information resembling finish stops, Auto Contour goal values and way more. This reduces the time required for attachment and establishing earlier than use to a minimal – guaranteeing lightening-fast operational readiness.
