New baler options all CLAAS
CLAAS is set to introduce a number of new equipment options for several of its balersForage harvesting specialist CLAAS is set to introduce new equipment options for its Quadrant 5300, 5200 and 4200 big square balers.
An integrated bale weighing system allows bales to be weighed during the baling process, saving time and maximising efficiency, says CLAAS Harvest Centre Product Manager – CLAAS Jaguar and Greenline, Luke Wheeler.
"Individual bale weights – accurate to plus or minus five kilograms even at speeds of up to 20km/h – are displayed on the ISOBUS control terminal in the cab," he says.
"Bale weights can then be saved according to the job or paddock for later processing or invoicing.
"Operators using the CLAAS TELEMATICS remote monitoring system can also use this data to plot crop yield and bale moisture across the field."
A new LED lighting system, meanwhile, will see a seven lights fitted to key baler components, including the drawbar, flywheel, feed rake and bale chamber.
Finally, Quadrant 4200 balers will soon be able to be specified with the pull-out knife drawer already found on the larger 5300 and 5200 models, reducing the time for a complete knife change to just 15 minutes.
CLASS says all these new features will be available on all 2018-delivery machines.
