Forward of Agritechnica, which takes place 9-15 November, Claas has launched 4 new forage harvesters from the Jaguar 1000 collection.
Claas has developed the widest crop circulate channel in the marketplace for the JAGUAR 1000 at the side of a brand new pre-compression system. The 4 pre-compression rollers work with a totally hydraulic pre-compression system and thus allow a uniform crop circulate whatever the layer thickness – this ensures uniform feeding of the V-FLEX chopping cylinder and thus ensures most throughput with homogeneous chop high quality and optimum total effectivity of the machine.
The pre-compression rollers could be raised hydraulically for cleansing work utilizing the upkeep perform. Due to Fast Entry, the whole pre-compression unit could be swivelled as much as 80 levels for upkeep work in only a few easy steps. The tilting body with hydraulic centring for Choose Up and Orbis is positioned on the pre-compression unit.
In 2024, CLAAS the revolutionary V-Flex chopping cylinder for the Jaguar 900. Due to its 910 mm width, the Jaguar 1000 now affords much more house and inertia for optimum throughputs and steady crop circulate even on the highest swath thicknesses – for instance within the harvest of entire crop silage. The crop is minimize much more effectively due to the steep knife angle of 10 levels.
The V-Flex chopping cylinder could be fitted with full and half knife units in addition to half-section knives, enabling a uniquely large chop size vary. The knives, mounted from above with three screws, are mounted within the drum stars and robotically aligned. Setting the knives to the shear bar and readjusting them just isn’t crucial.
Throughput ranges of as much as 500 t/h require efficient centre punching and residual plant processing in silage maize harvesting. The Jaguar 1000 is ideally geared up for this due to the Multi Crop Cracker XL. Obtainable both because the MCC XL Traditional with a sawtooth profile with varied enamel and a 40% velocity distinction or because the MCC XL Shredledge with a 50% velocity distinction, it affords a really giant contact floor between the rollers with a 310mm curler diameter, making certain wonderful conditioning throughout the whole out there chop size vary and even on the highest throughput capacities.
The chop high quality evaluation in CLAAS join, offered at Agritechnica 2023, can be utilized to simply decide the processing rating (CSPS Corn Silage Processing Rating) by way of smartphone within the discipline: Take a photograph of the chopped materials and ship it on to the cloud by way of Claas join. Inside a couple of minutes, the AI-based programme determines the CSPS and transmits the end result again to the smartphone. This protects time and permits the optimum setting of the corncracker for the respective situations of use as the premise for optimum forage high quality and effectivity.
The throwing accelerator has additionally been tailored to the elevated output of the Jaguar 1000. Whether or not for chopping with a large, concentrated throw or for brief switch distances to move automobiles travelling alongside: the hydraulically adjustable hole of as much as 60mm by shifting the accelerator in the direction of the again panel permits the throw to be adjusted simply and will increase the effectivity of the Jaguar.
The discharge manifold idea can also be new: by merely swapping the manifold finish piece, the size could be optimised for the respective entrance attachment from grass to maize and vice versa. The top piece could be folded hydraulically for maize harvesting with Orbis 10500 and most manifold size to allow protected street transport.
Since 1994, transversely mounted engines within the Jaguar have been driving the knife drum and different items straight and due to this fact with notably low losses. Within the Jaguar 1000, too, a powerband takes the facility straight from the crankshaft of the 24-litre V12 engine from MAN and transfers it to the chopping cylinder, throwing accelerator and from there to the corncracker. For the bottom drive, the pre-compression rollers and the 2 unbiased variable attachment drives, a pump switch case is positioned on the rear left of the engine, which drives the hydraulic motors. Due to the unbiased variable attachment drives, the pick-up and consumption auger on the Choose Up and the knife and transport discs and feed drums on the Orbis could be adjusted independently of one another by way of velocity to go well with the harvesting situations.
The effectivity of the drives will also be emphasised right here due to their subtle design. Throughout street journey, solely the bottom drive is lively; the drive of the chopping unit, consumption and entrance attachments is then decoupled within the pump switch case. The engine bonnet of the Jaguar 1000 has additionally been designed to be very slim and flat, in order that the view to the rear is not any extra restricted than with forage harvesters within the medium and decrease efficiency lessons. As well as, this design permits a sort of wasp waist within the space of the steering axle, in order that the turning radius stays small regardless of the bigger tyre gear.
The Jaguar 1000 comes with 4-wheel drive and clever all-wheel administration as customary. Differential locks on the entrance axle and, solely for forage harvesters, on the rear axle are additionally provided as an choice, as is a tyre strain management system for the entrance and rear axles. Which means the Jaguar 1000 is aware of no limits, even in troublesome harvesting situations and on slopes.
The subtle drive design permits for 800/70 R42 entrance axle tires with a complete machine width of three.30m, with the most important potential entrance axle tire for the Jaguar 1000 being 900/60 R42 with an outer diameter of two.15m. As well as, tires as much as 710/60 R30 could be chosen for the rear axle, which not solely supplies the Jaguar 1000 with loads of traction, but additionally implies that it is extremely light on the soil.
The Jaguar 1000 is provided with Cemos Auto Crop Move and Cemos Auto Efficiency for constantly optimum total effectivity with most driver aid. The Cemos Auto Efficiency engine and drive administration system relieves the operator and ensures a relentless or most throughput all through the harvest by adjusting the driving velocity to the engine load, and robotically adjusts the engine energy if crucial – for instance when yield ranges are low. Which means the Jaguar 1000 at all times works within the optimum energy vary and reduces gasoline consumption. Cemos Auto Crop Move intelligently and robotically displays the engine velocity always to make sure that the forage harvester is working accurately and stops the crop circulate if the engine velocity drops beneath the set minimal velocity.
Throughout operation, the operator can also be relieved by Auto Fill. With the assistance of digital 3D picture evaluation by way of the corresponding digital camera expertise, the discharge spout and flap management for filling transport automobiles travelling alongside is carried out robotically – each day and night time.
Claas is introducing the most recent technology of the NIR sensor Nutrimeter with the Jaguar 1000. Thanks to specific real-time dedication of the dry matter content material, it not solely permits exact yield recording and yield mapping, but additionally automated chop size adjustment. This helps one of the best forage high quality relying on the dry matter content material and optimum compaction of the silage within the silo.
Along with dry matter content material, the Nutrimeter additionally information different elements equivalent to starch, crude protein and sugar content material. A brand new function is the cellular use of the NIR sensor as an ISOBUS system, which permits simple conversion from machine to machine. The information collected by the Nutrimeter is saved, analysed and output along with the machine knowledge from the Jaguar in Claas join.
The cab is operated as common utilizing acquainted controls such because the CMotion floor velocity management lever within the right-hand armrest console, in addition to the built-in CEBIS terminal with its 12-inch display. The GPS Pilot Cemis 1200 is obtainable for satellite-supported steering and sensible farming duties equivalent to automobile fleet and order administration in addition to documentation. Varied seat variants, together with a swivelling leather-based seat –out there with seat heater and seat air flow –, automated air con and the extraordinarily low noise stage within the cab guarantee most consolation and fatigue-free working. Modern cleansing methods, such because the premium windscreen wiper system, guarantee excellent visibility even in probably the most troublesome harvesting situations.
Elective joystick steering for discipline use is obtainable for the Jaguar 1000 – a primary for Claas harvesting equipment. This permits the Jaguar to be manoeuvred exactly with simply two fingers – ideally suited for tight turning manoeuvres on the finish of the sector. The joystick steering has two steering modes and could be customised in varied depth ranges. As well as, three switches are built-in into the armrest for individually assignable capabilities, equivalent to reducing and elevating the discharge spout, the horn or the work lighting. Along with the satellite-based GPS Pilot Cemis 1200, different automated steering methods from Claas can be found, equivalent to Auto Pilot and, solely from Claas, Cam Pilot.
Claas join affords a user-friendly platform for sensible farming that seamlessly integrates machine and farm administration. Essential Jaguar 1000 knowledge equivalent to fields, reference strains, working sources, machines and labour could be recorded, analysed and optimised. Customers have an ideal overview of their machines and might evaluate them – each by way of work efficiency and effectivity – and thus uncover inefficiencies and provoke optimisations.
As well as, yield maps could be rapidly and simply used to create utility maps. And: with the cellular Claas join app, all data is at all times at your fingertips, even while you’re on the transfer. From 2026, stay yield mapping will even be out there on the Cemis 1200. This permits yield and moisture to be displayed stay on the Cemis show as a map throughout harvest.
With the Cemis 1200 and a Machine join licence, job administration for the Jaguar 1000 is finished in only a few clicks by way of the cell phone connection and yield maps could be created stay. Jobs, together with reference tracks, could be deliberate upfront in Claas join and transferred to the machine. For instance, GPS Pilot Cemis 1200 can steer the Jaguar months later with centimetre precision utilizing the tracks from the maize sowing. After finishing the job, the operator rapidly and simply sends the collected machine knowledge, together with yield knowledge, again to the workplace. From the order to its execution and documentation, knowledge processing is essentially automated and due to this fact easy and safe.
