Variable-speed choose up choice for Claas Jaguar 900

This new mannequin 12 months will see the Claas Jaguar 900 forage harvesters, each wheeled and tracked, profit from an upgraded drive to the pick-up tines, whereas the smaller Jaguar 800 collection is expanded with new and extra highly effective fashions.

Along with a change within the mechanical elements, the CEMIS 1200 terminal with the brand new GPS Pilot turns into out there for all fashions.

Auto velocity adjustment

Two seasons in the past Claas launched an elective drive variant for the entrance attachment on the 2 Jaguar 900 fashions within the type of a further hydraulic drive for the reel of the pick-up reel.

The aim of this feature was to energy the tines independently of the consumption auger with computerized, variable-speed adjustment relative to the bottom velocity.

The end result, Claas claims, is an environment friendly raking motion at any velocity with minimal consumption losses and really low put on.

This drive system has now been enhanced with further performance that routinely adjusts the pick-up velocity relative to the bottom velocity above 5km/h.

The idea being that if the bottom velocity, or the chop size setting, is modified, then the pick-up reel and consumption auger speeds are routinely matched to the prevailing situations.

That is stated to lead to a extra constant and even circulate of the crop into the knives, particularly the place there are frequent and important adjustments in swath thickness.

Auto and handbook

Though the system is being billed as computerized, each speeds might also be adjusted manually from the cab, in accordance with the necessities of the harvest.

From this season onwards the Jaguar 840 shall be fitted with the identical Mercedes-Benz OM 471 LA Stage V six-cylinder engine already used within the Jaguar 850.

The 12.8L displacement signifies that engine output for the smallest forage harvester within the present Claas product vary is elevated by 27hp, taking the utmost output to 435hp at 1,600rpm with out, we’re assured, any antagonistic impact on gas effectivity.

CEMIS geared up Jaguar 900

The Jaguar 900 and 800 fashions might also be geared up with the CEMIS 1200 terminal which incorporates GPS Pilot, system developed to be used within the firm’s mix vary.

This automated steering system can of be used when harvesting maize, complete crop silage or different sorts of forage crops.

On the coronary heart of the system is a 12in display that gives a 2D and 3D shows with a dividable display, in addition to on-line job administration and documentation with information export by the use of telematics or USB.

By choosing the newest steering and management techniques on the harvesters it’s doable for not solely the steering to be automated but in addition the bottom velocity, to match crop situations to the out there energy.
