The key to viable farming is boosting efficiencies, cutting costs and utilizing equipment to full potential all year round. This is the scenario in which KRONE developed the ZX dual-purpose wagon. Dual-purpose means these machines serve as both self-loading forage wagons with discharge rollers and forager-filled forage wagons in maize and grass.
- The world's most powerful self-loading and harvester-filled forage wagon – thanks to the KRONE Powerbelt driveline with a transmission capacity of up to 400hp
- Camless pick-up with hydraulic drive and electro-hydraulic suspension
- Pivoting headboard increases capacity from a compact build
- Pull-out blade cassette with 48 individually protected blades
- Three standard discharge rollers on ZX GD models. Overload protection comes from a clutch in the main driveline.
- Optional SpeedSharp blade grinder
- Axles with hydraulic auto-levelling system
- PowerLoad auto filling system with auto chain-and-slat floor control
Boosted precision from an innovative design
KRONE optimises the ZX cutting system
A brand-new innovation is the KRONE SplitCut – a system of two plates that are fitted between the outermost feeder stars and the body walls. These plates ensure that no uncut material flows over the rotor ends into the machine. The material flow is split as it passes the first knife and is fed over the tines back to the front where two deflector plates guide the crop to the middle of the rotor where it is cut and then fed into the machine.
Another asset of the new ZX cutting system is the gentle treatment of the material which is achieved by optimising the lengthy top plates on the feeding tines thereby increasing the total crop feed area by 50%. The results are an exemplary crop flow, a well-compacted crop load and an outstanding forage quality no matter the conditions.
Product features
A high milk yield is the decisive factor for the economic success of a farm. The forage intake required for this is ensured in particular by tasty and pure forage. To ensure clean pick-up without the introduction of raw ash, fungi and yeasts, the OptiGrass concept with its wide oscillating pick-up and excellent scanning characteristics offers the right technical solution to achieve perfect crop pick-up.
A sensor on the scraper conveyor displays the information on the terminal about the discharge and remaining capacity of the loading space. This gives you an overview of the current filling level at all times.
The steered axles are standard specification. Tracking excellently in headland turns and curved lines, these wheels eliminate the risk of scuffing, protect the sward and take off stress from the running gear.
By electronically transmitting the steering angle, the contactless forced steering allows a higher steering angle and prevents possible damage due to collisions with the tractor tyre. No linkage interferes with the full steering angle of the tractor-trailer combination. Thanks to the electronic control, the steering characteristics can be adjusted perfectly to different driving situations.
The ZX dual-purpose forage wagons have bottom-mount drawbars, The combination of the stable construction and a ball-head attachment allows drawbar loads of up to four tonnes. The narrow and compact design of the drawbar allows a minimum turning radius.
The ZX can be optionally equipped with the KRONE Smart-Connect telemetry unit. This interface is used with GPS and WLAN function as the basis for data management. Telemetrics allow managers to track the wagon and record all major data and transmit them to the office. This is the modern way of farming.
The user interface of the KRONE ZX is particularly user-friendly thanks to its simple and intuitive operability. Various work steps are illustrated by visualisation, such as rotating discharge rollers. More comfort is provided by the configurable display bar which can be used to individually adjust the user interface to the user's requirements. Automatic functions, such as the PowerLoad automatic loading system, the automatic unloading system and the drawbar control system, are also available.
The compact DS 500 terminal has a 5.7-inch colour display screen can be operated with 12 function keys, the touchscreen or the scroll wheel on the back. An optional joystick is available for even more convenient operation.
