Drive systems

A robust drive line that eliminates glitches in operation.

Even the standard model of the new VARIANT comes with an impressive specification and all-round operational reliability aimed at the professional user. Four high-strength seamless baling belts produce any desired bale diameter and are kept aligned by large deflecting rollers. The belt rotation is reliably driven via two rubber rollers with a cambered profile.

Heavy duty from CLAAS.

What's more, the VARIANT 385 and 365 models feature a new, heavy-duty drive design. The main transmission, drive chains, cutting system and protection devices are designed for the toughest conditions and heaviest loads you'll ever encounter.

  • Heavy-duty drives for the toughest crop conditions
  • Heavy-duty gearbox for increased throughput
  • Heavy-duty long-life 1 1/4" chains
  • Heavy-duty chopping system with dual knife mounting

This heavy-duty design has been developed for high reliability and long service life, regardless of how much you expect of your new VARIANT in everyday operation.
