Samasz Z4-1550 Four-Rotor Rake & KDX Mowers Debut at Agritechnica
In an already crowded market, Polish machinery manufacturer Samasz is set to unveil a prototype of its Z4-1550 four-rotor rake at Agritechnica.
The APC allows operators to get maximum performance from the new Quadrant 5200 and 4200 large square balers.
As experienced operators know well, while a tractor of sufficient power is required for output, there is little point in baling at high pressure setting if the twine is unable to withstand these loads. So for the new series, Claas has moved away from working only on bale chamber pressure, to now also monitoring the load on the baling twine.
The quality of the twine, measured in metres per kilogramme, will determine its ultimate capacity. This value is entered into the implement control terminal (ICT) by the operator. Ion operation sensors measure the load on the twine and if this approaches or exceeds the maximum load the system automatically and gradually reduces the system pressure until the overload is rectified – then it resets to the pre-arranged system pressure. With this system of measurement the baler is capable of making bales of uniform density irrespective of crop conditions and operator experience, maximising daily output.
