Nowadays, sugarcane farmers and contractors set high expectations for their square balers – not only high throughput, but also baling quality and user comfort
The new QUADRANT manufactured by CLAAS shows that the development team has listened to the customer’s demands and implemented them without any exceptions. In-depth understanding of the harvesting process, decades of experience in the development of balers and the world’s largest state-of-the-art product development centre for baling technology produced a machine which meets the highest quality standards, resulting in an ideal square baler for any application.
With the new integrated bale weighing system on the QUADRANT 5300, QUADRANT 5200 and QUADRANT 4200, CLAAS adds even greater benefits to its range of large square balers for all forage types.
The exact bale weight is displayed on the terminal of the QUADRANT models while baling in the field and recorded for the entire working day. In combination with connected services, the bale weights can be called up anywhere via CLAAS TELEMATICS and undergo further data processing.
All QUADRANT models offer many valuable benefits:
-High throughput
-Automatic baling pressure control for increased, even bale density
-High rotor speed ensures outstanding crop flow
-Good tying reliability, thanks to six high-performance knotters with no twine waste
-Knife drawer available for all QUADRANT models (now also available for the QUADRANT 4200)
-Crop feed systems to suit a variety of needs: ROTO FEED, ROTO CUT, FINE CUT, SPECIAL CUT
-Innovative bale weighing system for all QUADRANT models
In Thailand, CLAAS introduced the QUADRANT 4200, the entry-level model for sugarcane leaves baling. Compared to small square balers, the QUADRANT offers the main benefit of higher throughput, which means the field will be cleaned faster, allowing the sugarcane plants to start growing for the next harvest season. In addition, high-density baling of sugarcane leaves provides significant savings on transport costs by utilising the full weight capacity during truck transport.
The bale size of 1.2 m width, 0.7 m height and an adjustable bale length of up to 3 m ensures that local trucks can be loaded and unloaded quickly while maintaining high stability during transport on the field and the road. All these benefits combined make the CLAAS QUADRANT 4200 the ideal choice for baling sugarcane leaves baling.
