BiG Pack
Big Balers
One step ahead – with a KRONE BiG Pack. Whether you are making heavier, rock-hard bales with the BiG Pack HDP II or tying up to nine small bales neatly into one big bale with the MultiBale system, you’ll always be ahead of the field, using first-time innovations you won’t find anywhere else.
By buying a KRONE big baler you’re investing in experience and expertise in baler design. With so much experience under its belt, KRONE knows exactly what farmers need in the field and offers a complete range of balers with different chamber dimensions. The Variable Filling System, the unique MultiBale system and the camless EasyFlow pick-up with mechanical-drive rotor (Active Pick-up) are the stand-out features that have won international recognition and underpin the great success of the KRONE BiG Pack.
- HighSpeed: 20% higher throughputs while maintaining the same density
- HDP: Higher bale density – up to 25% heavier bales than from the BiG Pack 1290
- HDP II: Up to 70% higher throughput or up to 10% higher bale densities than from the HDP HighSpeed
- Chamber sizes from 80 x 70 cm to 120 x 130 cm
- VFS along with electronic baling pressure control for even bale densities
- X-Cut and VariCut cutting systems and PreChop for short cutting lengths
- Well-proven KRONE knotters for high-density and well-shaped bales
- MultiBale system packs up to nine small bales in one single big pack
- BaleCollect accumulator runs behind the baler collecting the finished bales as they leave the baler for greater harvest efficiencies and reduced field traffic
High-density large square baler
BiG Pack 1290 HDP II (XC)
Higher density – higher forward speeds. With its eight double knotters, this baler produces up to 70% higher throughputs or up to 10% higher densities than the BiG Pack HDP HighSpeed. It also delivers a lot more power on the field, making your straw logistics more efficient.
Product features
BiG Pack 4 x 4 (XC) HighSpeed: With a chamber height of 130 cm, you get fewer bales per hectare and save time and money on labour too – because the field is cleared fast. This baler is mainly used in straw and hay.
BiG Pack 1290 (XC) HighSpeed: These solid 1.20 m wide and 90 cm high bales are popular with farmers the world over. With its massive bale dimensions, this machine is mainly in demand for straw and hay, but it also handles silage successfully in some countries.
BiG Pack 1270 (XC/VC) MultiBale HighSpeed: This version enables you to pack up to nine small packs in one big bale. Big bales can be cleared quickly from the field, and the smaller packs are easy to distribute later on.
BiG Pack 1270 (XC/VC) HighSpeed: The 70 cm high x 120 cm wide chamber on this machine makes it truly versatile. Six single or double knotters produce firm and uniform bales in straw, hay and silage.
BiG Pack 890 (XC) HighSpeed: With four double knotters and a chamber measuring 80 cm in width and 90 cm in height, this machine has proved its worth time and again – not just in straw but also in heavy, wet silage.
For easy removal and maintenance, the single-piece blade cassette pulls out conveniently to the side on an optional transport frame that fits on a pallet truck.
A service aperture above the blades can be opened in a single action for removing deposits. The area around the blades and the individual blade protection system is kept clean with an integrated compressed air blower.
Blades can be preselected without tools in groups of 51, 26, 25, 12, or 5. The preselected group is engaged hydraulically from the cab. All cams are attached to the shaft and can be combined to form individual groups.
The blades are engaged hydraulically, after which the blade cassette is clamped in the frame. This takes the strain off the cassette's rolls and any vibrations that occur during cutting are safely absorbed, ensuring smooth running when the cassette is inserted and removed.
A side-mounted poly V-belt drives the pick-up and the rotor. The rotor has permanent slip control which switches it off and automatically swings the blades out of the crop flow if it becomes overloaded. To resume work, the operator first restarts the rotor and then engages the blades from the cab.
The BiG Pack 1270 features single knotters (Deering system) as standard. As an option, however, double knotters can also be ordered for the machines which are absolutely essential, especially for the Multibale version.
All BiG Pack models feature central lubrication as standard which ensures that the essential lubrication points are supplied with grease. Only a few lubrication points have to be manually supplied with grease. This prevents increased wear due to insufficient lubrication or dust penetration.
