Forward of Agritechnica, which takes place 9-15 November, Claas has launched 4 new forage harvesters from the Jaguar 1000 sequence.
Claas has developed the widest crop movement channel available on the market for the JAGUAR 1000 together with 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 movement 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 might be raised hydraulically for cleansing work utilizing the upkeep perform. Due to Fast Entry, all the pre-compression unit might be swivelled as much as 80 levels for upkeep work in just some easy steps. The tilting body with hydraulic centring for Decide Up and Orbis is positioned on the pre-compression unit.
In 2024, CLAAS the progressive V-Flex chopping cylinder for the Jaguar 900. Due to its 910 mm width, the Jaguar 1000 now presents much more area and inertia for max throughputs and steady crop movement even on the highest swath thicknesses – for instance within the harvest of complete crop silage. The crop is reduce much more effectively due to the steep knife angle of 10 levels.
The V-Flex chopping cylinder might be fitted with full and half knife units in addition to half-section knives, enabling a uniquely broad chop size vary. The knives, mounted from above with three screws, are mounted within the drum stars and mechanically aligned. Setting the knives to the shear bar and readjusting them 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 numerous tooth and a 40% pace distinction or because the MCC XL Shredledge with a 50% pace distinction, it presents a really massive contact floor between the rollers with a 310mm curler diameter, guaranteeing glorious conditioning throughout all the accessible 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 area: 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 consequence again to the smartphone. This protects time and allows the optimum setting of the corncracker for the respective situations of use as the premise for max 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 might be optimised for the respective entrance attachment from grass to maize and vice versa. The tip piece might be folded hydraulically for maize harvesting with Orbis 10500 and most manifold size to allow secure highway 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 ability 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 impartial variable attachment drives, a pump switch case is positioned on the rear left of the engine, which drives the hydraulic motors. Due to the impartial variable attachment drives, the pick-up and consumption auger on the Decide Up and the knife and transport discs and feed drums on the Orbis might be adjusted independently of one another by way of pace to go well with the harvesting situations.
The effectivity of the drives may also be emphasised right here due to their refined design. Throughout highway 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 isn’t any extra restricted than with forage harvesters within the medium and decrease efficiency lessons. As well as, this design allows 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 tools.
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 supplied as an choice, as is a tyre stress management system for the entrance and rear axles. Which means that the Jaguar 1000 is aware of no limits, even in tough harvesting situations and on slopes.
The delicate drive design permits for 800/70 R42 entrance axle tires with a complete machine width of three.30m, with the most important attainable 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 might be chosen for the rear axle, which not solely offers the Jaguar 1000 with loads of traction, but in addition signifies that it is extremely light on the soil.
The Jaguar 1000 is provided with Cemos Auto Crop Circulate and Cemos Auto Efficiency for constantly optimum total effectivity with most driver reduction. 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 pace to the engine load, and mechanically adjusts the engine energy if crucial – for instance when yield ranges are low. Which means that the Jaguar 1000 all the time works within the optimum energy vary and reduces gas consumption. Cemos Auto Crop Circulate intelligently and mechanically screens the engine pace always to make sure that the forage harvester is working accurately and stops the crop movement if the engine pace drops beneath the set minimal pace.
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 know-how, the discharge spout and flap management for filling transport automobiles travelling alongside is carried out mechanically – each day and evening.
Claas is introducing the newest technology of the NIR sensor Nutrimeter with the Jaguar 1000. Thanks to express real-time willpower of the dry matter content material, it not solely allows exact yield recording and yield mapping, but in addition computerized chop size adjustment. This helps the very 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 data different substances equivalent to starch, crude protein and sugar content material. A brand new function is the cellular use of the NIR sensor as an ISOBUS machine, which allows straightforward 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 ordinary utilizing acquainted controls such because the CMotion floor pace 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 good farming duties equivalent to car fleet and order administration in addition to documentation. Numerous seat variants, together with a swivelling leather-based seat –accessible with seat heater and seat air flow –, computerized air-con and the extraordinarily low noise stage within the cab guarantee most consolation and fatigue-free working. Progressive cleansing techniques, such because the premium windscreen wiper system, guarantee excellent visibility even in probably the most tough harvesting situations.
Non-compulsory joystick steering for area 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 – splendid for tight turning manoeuvres on the finish of the sphere. The joystick steering has two steering modes and might be customised in numerous depth ranges. As well as, three switches are built-in into the armrest for individually assignable capabilities, equivalent to decreasing and elevating the discharge spout, the horn or the work lighting. Along with the satellite-based GPS Pilot Cemis 1200, different computerized steering techniques from Claas can be found, equivalent to Auto Pilot and, solely from Claas, Cam Pilot.
Claas join presents a user-friendly platform for good farming that seamlessly integrates machine and farm administration. Necessary Jaguar 1000 knowledge equivalent to fields, reference strains, working sources, machines and labour might be recorded, analysed and optimised. Customers have an ideal overview of their machines and might examine them – each by way of work efficiency and effectivity – and thus uncover inefficiencies and provoke optimisations.
As well as, yield maps might be rapidly and simply used to create software maps. And: with the cellular Claas join app, all data is all the time at your fingertips, even while you’re on the transfer. From 2026, stay yield mapping may also be accessible 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 completed in just some clicks by way of the cell phone connection and yield maps might be created stay. Jobs, together with reference tracks, might 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 basically automated and due to this fact easy and safe.
