The large contact area provided by the track roller units for CLAAS combine harvesters, forage harvesters and tractors ensures optimum soil protection.
The silage maize conditioning technology known by the SHREDLAGE® brand name processes the crop intensively and increases the surface area of the chopped material many times over.
More than 30,000 farmers, contractors, distributors, potential customers, farming journalists and business partners from more than 100 countries around the world visit the Technoparc each year.
Under the name “Gebrüder Claas” (Claas Brothers), the firm became well known all around the world. So who were the company’s founding fathers, August, Bernhard, Franz and Theo, and what were they like?
Join us on a journey through the past century – on the path leading from the knotter to today’s LEXION machines, the world’s most powerful combine harvester.
Experience the fascinating story of CLAAS at first hand. Join us on an exciting journey through the history of agricultural technology in the CLAAS company museum.
The CEMOS AUTOMATIC self-learning operator assistance system provides the operator with continuous, active support throughout the entire work process. On the basis of agricultural economics parameters, such as grain quality, threshing quality, standard of cleaning, straw quality and throughput, the system checks sensors and settings, optimising the LEXION to its technical performance limits while it is running.
CEMOS AUTOMATIC autonomously determines the best setting for every field.
Your operators' workload is reduced significantly
They achieve more throughput and an excellent standard of grain cleaning
The fuel efficiency of your machine is improved
You have no outages as a result of incorrect settings
You reduce costs and effort effectively
CEMOS AUTO THRESHING.
The system provides fully automatic adjustment of the threshing concave clearance and the threshing drum speed as well as the position of the pivoting concave bar and the threshing concave flap. In the background, it continuously tests various measures to optimise performance using the data from the
The fan speed and the upper and lower sieve opening are the parameters by which CEMOS AUTO CLEANING regulates the grain cleaning.
CEMOS AUTO SEPARATION.
CEMOS AUTO SEPARATION continuously optimises the secondary separation by automatically adjusting the rotor speed and the rotor flap position in accordance with any change in the harvesting conditions.
CEMOS performance analysis.
The LEXION always keeps you informed about the scope for performance optimisation – and it is able to manage this with far greater precision than an operator could ever do manually. The most significant factors limiting throughput are displayed permanently:
Maximum engine load
Maximum crop volume in feeder housing
Threshing unit load
Separation losses
Cleaning losses
Returns volume limit
Manual optimisation measures by the operator can only be applied occasionally. CEMOS AUTOMATIC optimises all the settings continuously.
AUTO CROP FLOW recognises peak loads.
AUTO CROP FLOW.
If the preset slip limit is overshot, the system automatically takes measures to prevent any more material from entering the machine. In this way, downtime because of blockages or damage is avoided and components are not overloaded.
The optimal harvesting speed increases your productivity. CRUISE PILOT controls it automatically on the basis of the engine load. It is possible to choose from three strategies:
Cruise control: harvest at a constant speed
Performance: harvest with maximum throughput
Throughput: harvest with maximum throughput with consideration of losses
AUTO SLOPE manages cleaning on slopes.
Hilly fields are a challenge for the grain cleaning system. Uphill, the fan speed has to be reduced, downhill it has to be increased. AUTO SLOPE controls the fan speed and the sieve opening on the basis of the longitudinal tilt.
More throughput and lower grain losses on slopes
The cleaning performance always remains stable
The crop flow in the cleaning system is maintained
The operator's workload in undulating terrain is reduced
The free CEMOS Advisor smartphone app is a valuable adjustment aid for the operator. It comes with an integrated lost grain calculation function.
CEMOS DIALOG motivates the operator.
The CEMOS DIALOG assistance system guides the operator to the optimal machine setup. Settings confirmed by the operator are implemented directly by CEMOS DIALOG.
Operators are motivated to check settings more frequently and to optimise them
They are more confident about adjusting settings
Even experienced operators benefit from the learning effect
LASER PILOT with new FIELD SCANNER.
Automatic steering systems.
The electro-optical sensors of the LASER PILOT use pulses of light to scan between the crop and stubble and guide the combine harvester automatically along the edge. In the new LEXION, the sensors at the outer edges of the cutterbar have been replaced by a FIELD SCANNER which is fitted centrally on the cab roof.
The electro-optical sensor of the LASER PILOT uses pulses of light to scan the edge between the harvested and unharvested areas and in this way guides the LEXION automatically along the left-hand edge of the crop. The LASER PILOT can be folded and is available for the left-hand side of the cutterbar.
You no longer need to fold the sensors out and in before and after use
You don't have to bother with calibration
Buttons on the control lever are used to activate the three steering modes: along the right or left edge of the crop or along the tramline
GPS PILOT with unbeatable steering precision.
The satellite-based, automatic steering system from CLAAS is permanently integrated in the machine and supports you in all tasks which depend on maximum pass-to-pass accuracy.
Actively controls the steering hydraulics
Guides you across the field precisely at all speeds
Even in foggy or dark conditions
Correction signals available for all accuracy requirements
S7 terminal for GPS.
High-resolution 7" touchscreen
Controls parallel guidance or GPS steering system
USB interface for data exchange and management
Reference line management, SECTION VIEW and AUTO TURN as standard
