    Krone presents a new range of round balers
    Fortima replaces VarioPack

    13408
    Spelle, 21 September 2011. Fortima is the name of the new round baler that supersedes Krone’s VarioPack model, an established machine that has proven ten thousands of times all over the world. In terms of its external styling, the new round baler resembles Comprima and is equally powerful and efficient, offering high operator comfort, a clear-cut design and a uniquely high level of specification. The variable chamber Fortima is marketed in two versions:  Fortima V 1500 (1-1.5m bale diameters) and Fortima V 1800 (1-1.8m bale diameters); each version may be specified with Krone’s MultiCut cutting system.

    Featuring the 12.05m EasyFlow pick-up unit, the slat-and-chain elevator as well as net wrap and/or twine wrapping technology, Fortima gives evidence of Krone’s advanced round baler technology, which evolved during decades of in-field experience.
    The new EasyFlow pick-up is mounted right on the rotor discs on either end of the pick-up, a design that eliminates the need for a traditional cam track and hence a major area of wear.
    This camless technology provides a number of obvious advantages: Firstly, it results in a more clear-cut design after the machine shed quite a number of moving parts, which would be subject to wear and tear. Operators report they noticed an up to 60 percent decrease in wear costs. Further costs are saved on reduced service and maintenance. In addition, the camless EasyFlow pick-up operates at a 30% higher speed than a standard pick-up with cam and offers noticeably quieter running as well.

    The MultiCut rotor cutter gives controlled cuts and is a synonym for best quality, convenient knife change and locking. Feeding the crops in a continuous flow through the knives, MultiCut  produces nominal cutting lengths of down to 64mm when using all 17 knives. The knives are operated in sets of 17, 15, 7 or 0.
    The model without cutting system has a 415mm diameter feed rotor, which is arranged between the pick-up and the baling chamber to improve the flow of crop into the machine and boost the overall output. Its tines are attached in a V arrangement and it is this design that accounts for particularly firm edges, also when baling from thin and narrow swaths.
    The well-proven chain elevator technology reduces tractor power input to an absolute minimum and will therefore operate behind a 50hp tractor.  Narrowly spaced slats reduce friction and power loss in order to provide superior bale feed and baling performance. As the slats mesh with the material, they give the elevator a better grip for a more positive rotation of the bale – an enormous benefit in very dry or very wet crops.
    The highlight of the baling chamber is the new and larger pulleys, which are more durable and harder wearing, give quieter running and provide for higher densities.

    The new twine box is sealed against spraying water and rain and stores up to 11 balls of twine, which are conveniently replaced from the ground. The new twine tying system uses four threads to wrap the bales really tight and cut down the tying cycle.

    Baler operation is new, too, and responds to user wishes. The new Comfort operating unit brings ISOBUS compatibility, so that the operator can operate Fortima from the Beta terminal or the CCI-ISOBUS terminal.
    All operation is carried out from the cab, including function testing and setting the number of net wraps. In addition, the operator can program a wide range of features (e.g. signalling completion of a job).

    Summary:  The new Fortima range presents an intelligent combination of well-proven technology and innovation. The round baler not only offers maximum efficiency and densities but also a clear design and exemplary access to all service and maintenance points. On top of all that, it is styled in a modern and attractive design that appeals to its users.
