Comprima

• The round baler – Comprima F 155 (XC)
• The combination baler wrapper – Comprima CF 155 XC
• Flexible options – 6 bale diameters from 1.25 m to 1.50 m
• Cost-effective – the simple and uncluttered design
• Sharp blades – the XCut cutting system

The Comprima F 155 (XC) and CF 155 XC from KRONE are fixed chamber balers with semivariable bale chamber. These machines produce high-density and well-shaped bales of six different diameters – a unique technology that stands out in the marketplace. Thanks to their uncluttered build and design, these models are particularly cost-effective and exceptionally easy to operate and service. Featuring a strong and rugged build, these balers offer unsurpassed versatility, baling equally well silage, hay and straw.

The Comprima F 155 model produces 1.25-1.50 m diameter bales. Operators simply set the required diameter in 5 cm increments on an easy-to-use system. The machine combines many advantages of fi xed and variable bale chambers. For example, its uncluttered build makes it more cost-eff ective and easier to service and maintain than a variable chamber round baler. It produces bales of various diameters by building the pressure from outside and the bales have a very small and soft core at larger diameters and as a result are heavier in weight.

The combination baler wrapper Comprima CF 155 XC has all the features of a round baler plus a wrapping table with two orbiting dispenser arms. The deep cradle in the table and the big bobbins on the sides of the table ensure that even in difficult conditions the bale is effectively rolled during the wrapping cycle. The table can also be used for depositing the bales in pairs in the field. The Comprima CF has a tandem axle as standard specification.

The Comprima F und CF 155 XC models have semivariable bale chambers that produce 1.25-1.50 m diameter bales of great densities and tidy shapes. The diameter is changed in 5 cm increments. Thanks to their simple and uncluttered build, these balers are particularly easy to service. So less time is spent on attending the machine and productivity increases. The bale diameter is set by refi tting two pins. The general bale density adjustable too.

After the net has been applied to the bale, the tailgate opens and the baler lifter transfers the bale onto the wrapping table. As the baler resumes baling, the wrapper starts wrapping.

Three components are key to this technology: the tensioning arm, the suspension strut and the tensioning kinematics. The top tensioning arm is pulled down as the bale chamber is fi lling up. As it does so, it increases the available space inside the chamber and allows more material to enter. The path of the tensioning arm is limited by a pin that is set on the outside of the machine. This defi nes the diameter of the bale. The use of a suspension strut in combination with tensioning kinematics leads to maximum densities, both in the core and the outer layers.
