The chopper unit
Optimum layer thickness
It's not just the number of blades that accounts for a good quality chop. The thickness of the mat that passes through them and therefore the width of the chopping drums are just as important. Therefore KRONE designed a wider 630 mm chopping drum for the BiG X 480, 530, 580 and 630 which carries the customary high chopping quality of the high-capacity foragers with 800 mm drums over to the smaller models.

Product features
Efficient
With its working width of 6.20 metres, the KRONE XDisc 620 direct cut header achieves a high acreage output and therefore efficient harvesting of whole crop silage.
Silage additive options
The 275-litre dispenser for adding silage additives at high rates (0.5-7.5 l/min) is integrated on the offside platform next to the cab. Two 20-litre silage additive dispenser for small dose rates (0.03-0.25 l/min) can be installed on the left platform. In addition, it is possible to fit an external silage additive system. The silage additive can also be added relative to yields (option).
KRONE GPS Guidance – The KRONE steering system
Equipped with KRONE GPS Guidance, the BiG X can be steered comfortably and safely by autopilot. Thanks to this automatic steering system and the correction signals received by the GPS receiver, the BiG X can drive over the area to be harvested true-to-track and with minimum overlap. For the driver, this means fatigue-free work and a high level of comfort. In addition, the BiG X can also be optionally pre-equipped for ISOBUS steering systems from various manufacturers.
