Drawing of 2 header finger bar (4,5 m) CLAAS Lexion combine
In 2003 a serial manufacture of the Lexion 570 and 580 combine models were introduced. Modern diesel-engines are used in these models (produced by the world leading companies), which have enormous power reserve. Also the installation of TERRA TRAC chassis provides less soil deterioration.
The maximum width of machine in theLexion 580 TERRA TRAC is only 3,5 m, and in the Lexion 570 TERRA TRAC – only 3,3 m. The main exclusive feature from “Claas” company is unique conception of the driving gear. The Lexion 570 MONTANA includes 2-level electrohydraulic transmission (EHS). While load increasing a hydraulic motor raises the supply and by speed reducing it increases torsion torque. Owing to this, the combine works constantly with optimal energy conversion efficiency.
During harvesting with the help of Lexion combine CEBIS system records productivity according to the land plots. The programm AGRO-MAP analyses this data and records informative yield maps
