The hydrostatic wheel motors offer greater productivity and a higher level of automation and operator convenience. At the same time, this type of power train reduces maintenance and frees valuable space to fit a bigger and more powerful chopping assembly and move this further to the rear of the machine.

Front-wheel drive – four-wheel drive: BiG X 480, BiG X 530, BiG X 580 and BiG X 630 are available with optional hydraulic four-wheel drive via wheel motors. Machines with front-wheel drive have hubs on the rear wheels instead of wheel motors. Both drive trains are designed for speeds of up to 40 km/h.

Planetary gearbox: The wheels are driven by Bosch planetary gearboxes. Planetary gearboxes offer the advantage of distributing the load to several planetary wheels which are compact and enable high torques.

A KRONE exclusive! The wheel motors are mounted eccentrically on the front axle which allows you to fit small or large tyres and still retain the position of the pick-up, the intake system and chopping drum floor relative to the downstream crop flow. This detail warrants an optimum and consistent crop flow.

Superb manoeuvrability: The use of wheel motors allows the wheels to turn through 50° for tightest turns and perfect match-ups after headland turns with an 8-row maize header.

Tyres with a purpose: The BiG X 480, 530, 580 and 630 can be fitted with up to 900/60 R 42 tyres. The massive tyres guarantee maximum ground clearance, smallest ground pressure and ultimate operator comfort.
