Feed system

A unique system that guarantees output: the rotor gets the bale rolling.

More output – the CLAAS rotor.

There's no need to mess with perfection – after the pick-up, the high-speed chopping rotor creates an absolutely consistent product flow and ensures continuous filling of the bale chamber. You can always drive the VARIANT at full speed. Thanks to maximum core compaction, the highest bale weights are guaranteed.

Reliable bale start

Unique from CLAAS: the rotor gets the bale turning and forces the bale start – for each and every bale, under all conditions. At the end of the day, you'll be pleased to see how you manage to work more effectively and produce far more perfectly compacted bales than you ever did in previous seasons.

Cutting-edge technology: ROTO CUT

With ROTO CUT, the VARIANT can be utilised to your best advantage. With this advanced system, it produces a short-chopped crop to the standards you expect. The 14-blade chopping rotor on the VARIANT ROTO CUT works precisely, quickly and effectively with helical double tines for a consistently good feed quality. Because the crop is cut short and precisely into small lengths, it can be compacted more densely and broken up more easily.

VARIANT PRO

The VARIANT, whether ROTO FEED or ROTO CUT, can also be equipped with a floor that can be lowered using two hydraulic cylinders.
Any blockages that may occur can be conveniently cleared from the comfort of the cab. The hydraulically lowerable floor can be opened to the front by activating the ancillary dual-acting spool valve. The rotor forces the blockage directly into the baling chamber. Now just close the floor and you're back in action.
