KRONE RX – the efficient loading and forage transport wagon a transport volume of 33 to 40 m³. The dual-purpose loading and forage transport wagon truly fulfills the requirements of both its purposes: as a loading and forage transport wagon in the grass harvest chain and as a forager-filled silage trailer in the maize transport chain. With the high-performance 'OptiGrass 28 and 37' cutting systems, it offers a clean, precise cut as well as structured and homogeneous forage conditioning across the entire width. Thanks to its versatility, operational reliability and high efficiency, the use of an RX wagon is particularly economical.

The dual-purpose loading and forage transport wagons RX 330, 370 and 400 GL / GD

• Loading and forage transport wagons „
• 33, 37 or 40 m³ loading volumes
• Compound running gear (RX 330 /370)
• Hydraulic running gear (RX 400) available for all models as an option
• Unloading with or without discharge rollers
• OptiGrass concept for a clean 28 or 37 mm cut

Their proven-and-tested design features and innovative technologies, such as the KRONE SplitCut edge cutting system and the OptiGrass concept, make the RX dual-purpose loading and forage transport wagons the ideal machine for efficient harvesting. With a loading volume of 33, 37 or 40 m³, these loading and forage transport wagons offer ample capacities for successful forage harvesting.

Sturdy, agile and convenient

The RX 330 and 370 models are equipped with a compound running gear as standard. As an option, a hydraulic running gear is available, which is the standard for model RX 400. Both running gear variants offer a perfect combination of stability, agility and convenience. The even weight distribution ensures easy handling on uneven terrain, while precise control and high reliability ensure maximum efficiency.

OptiGrass

• Clean cut in theoretical length of 28 or 37 mm
• Optimal structure gentle conditioning under all conditions
• Homogeneous uniform conditioning of each stalk over its full width
• Precise wide steel plates and blades arranged for shear cutting
• Perfectly coordinated precise interaction between pick-up and cutting rotor
• Innovative new integral rotor with unique divider wall system

Thanks to the KRONE OptiGrass system, the forage quality is clean, homogeneous and uniform. This is possible due to the precise cutting method with a choice of cutting lengths of 28 or 37 mm. Thanks to the perfectly coordinated technologies, conditioning is gentle, resulting in a clean and high-quality result.

The KRONE EasyFlow pick-up

• Hydraulic drive separated from the feed and cutting rotor
• Automatic and manual speed control to adapt to the current ground speed
• Maintenance-free and hard wearing
• Consistent collection of the material by tines in a staggered W arrangement
• Large pivoting range
• Electrohydraulic suspension for even better sward protection.

The EasyFlow pick-up with hydraulic drive is the ideal solution for demanding requirements. With its 6.5 mm thick double tines in a helical layout, it meets the most demanding requirements in ease of maintenance and pick-up capacity. The hydraulic drive integrated in this pick-up offers an even larger work width, which helps to collect even more material at an optimum driving speed and maximizes the intake capacity.

Gentle on the soil

A nitrogen damper provides electro-hydraulic suspension for the pick-up for even better soil protection. The system allows operators to set the suspension pressure from the cab and on the move.

Secured as a standard

Wide guide wheels behind the pick-up ensure clean forage intake on damp ground. The height-adjustable wheels prevent them from sinking too deep and therefore protect them from damage. The 28 mm OptiGrass cutting unit has four wheels, the 37 mm cutting unit has two.

Drawbar control system

The articulated drawbar with double-acting ram is standard specification and provides a generous ground clearance of up to 75 cm – enough to roll on clamps no problem. The new automatic articulated drawbar offers a better ground clearance for headland turns. One headland and one road position can be programmed to the control unit.

Lifting out higher

In undulating terrain, the pick-up oscillates through a constant range around the core of the cutting rotor, maintaining an optimum flow of material into the machine no matter how difficult the conditions. The steering is aligned with the centre of the cutting rotor, enabling a wide lift height – ideal on the headland.

Large pivoting range

The laterally pivoting pick-up follows ground contours both axially and transversely and benefits from more generous travel now – courtesy of the integral hydro motor that replaces an external sprocket. The result is a clean rake and nothing is left behind.

Excellent tracking

The pneumatic guide wheels on either side of the pick-up offer height control for full adaptation to any ground contours. Tracking excellently behind the tractor during headland turns, these wheels avoid scuffing and offer best protection of the sward.

Extra strong

The 6.5 mm tines with large-diameter coils withstand the most arduous conditions.

Hydraulic drive

The integral hydro motor offers a number ofadvantages:It frees space on the pick-up ends for a wider work width, maintenance-free, the absence of sprockets on the sides translates into a larger pivoting range, manual or automatic ISOBUS speed adjustment to the current ground speed and prevailing conditions.

A unique pivoting system

Arranged in a W, the tines warrant a consistent crop flow and an equally consistent and fullwidth supply of the material to the rotor cutter, boosting throughputs and machine fills.
