i-BIO Bale and Wrap in one go - Kuhn.com

INTAKEDifferent Intake SystemsPick-UpThe new designed Pick-Up gathers the densest of swaths even at highforward speeds. The PENDULUM system and 2.30 m wide intake withheight adjustable guide wheels accurately carry the Pick-Up over everyground contour. The Pick-Up roller helps to even out the flow of materialinto the integral rotor, regardless of the crop conditions.OPTICUT 14The Integral Rotor with the 14-knife OPTICUT system is designedto even out the swath and force-feed the crop into the baler formaximum throughput. The 14-knife OPTICUT cutting system providesa theoretical cutting length of 70 mm. Each single knife is springprotected against damage from foreign objects.OPTICUT 23The Integral Rotor with the 23-knife OPTICUT system from KUHN has the benefitsof intensive cutting and the mechanical protection. The 23-knife OPTICUT systemprovides a theoretical cutting length of 45 mm. Each single knife is springprotected against damage from foreign objects. With group selection the operatorcan choose to have 0, 7, 11, 12, or 23 knives in operation.The OPTICUT systems from KUHN are acknowledged by users as one of the bestcutting systems on the market.WORK QUALITYIntegral Rotor TechnologyA maintenance-free and short distance intake system which ensures even feeding regardlessof variations of the crop. With this system, even the heaviest crops are forced through theintake, resulting in higher forward speeds for outstanding productivity.The silage is guided and drawn to the knives in an early stage which improves the flow and cutting performance and is also preventingunwanted blockages. As a result of the redesigned intake unit the power requirement of the i-BIO has decreased.DROP-FLOORThe intake unit is protected by the main PTO clutch. If a blockage occurs the PTO clutch is automatically activated. In addition the completecutting floor including the knives can be lowered with a push on a button on the terminal. After the blockage is cleared the cutting floor includingthe knives can be brought back into the working position via the terminal. In extreme circumstances KUHN provides double security by rotordisengagement clutch which separates the rotor drive so the bale can be finished.6
