The conditioner versions
Quality is as important as efficiency. To ensure the crop dries rapidly and uniformly, it is recommended to use a conditioner, which rubs off the natural wax skin for moisture to evaporate faster. KRONE offers a choice of three conditioner versions: The CV V-steel tine conditioner, which offers two speeds (700 rpm and 1,000 rpm) or the CRi roller conditioner. This latter version comes either with two profiled polyurethane rollers or steel rollers for vulnerable and broad-leaved crops, such as leguminosae.

The CV conditioner for 9.7 m (32 feet) working widths:
The V-steel tines on the 64 cm diameter rotor feed the crop past a baffle plate for intensive conditioning. The operator sets the rotor speed (700 rpm or 1,000 rpm) conveniently on the gearbox. The baffle plate is adjustable without tools to achieve the best possible conditioning results.

The CRi conditioner for 9.0 m (30 feet) working widths:
These polyurethane rollers are the preferred option when cutting leafy crops such as lucerne and clover. The chevron profiled rotors are 25 cm (10 inch) in diameter and provide gentle crop treatment. Both rollers are gearbox driven.
