BiG X 700 and BiG X 770 now powered by Liebherr engines
Spelle, November 2016. The Krone Big X 700 and 770 model ranges will be powered by Liebherr V8 engines from the 2017 season onwards. The move marks a first-time cooperation between the private company Liebherr from Switzerland and Krone. Liebherr has many years of experience in manufacturing specialist engines for earth-moving and mining equipment as well as for agricultural and forestry machinery.
Customers appreciate the hard-wearing components and the twice as long service intervals of these engines. Engine oil and filters are only changed after 1,000 engine hours, for instance. The Liebherr engine also features a buffalo power curve and high torque even at low engine speeds. And courtesy of its great elasticity this engine offers plenty of torque back-up allowing operators to just keep going in conditions where yields vary greatly. And of course, the familiar PowerSplit and ConstantPower features are also a given: PowerSplit automatically adapts the engine output to the harvest conditions. EcoPower is used where less machine output is needed. XPower delivers maximum output to master tough conditions. ConstantPower senses the current load and controls ground speed so that the engine operates always within the optimum torque and output ranges, varying forward speed constantly so the engine always operates at the pre-set speed.

Engine capacity (l) 16.16
Continuous engine output in kW/hp 528/718*
