Take advantage of the headstart you get from the fixed-chamber round balers Fortima F 1250 and F 1600 with and without MultiCut cutting system. Boasting a host of unique features - the camless pick-up, the chain-and-slat elevator, the simple design, top durability and low maintenance – these balers mean quick payback on your investment.

The chain-and-slat elevator adds layer after layer to the rolling bale, forming tight and well-shaped round bales. The chain-and-slat elevator scores especially on its superior feeding ability. Rolling starts earlier and so the baling cycle finishes earlier as well. The elevator also creates a firmer core and packs more weight and density into each bale, which translates into higher quality silage and better exploitation of truck capacities.

The ejector throws the bale clear of the rear door and also serves as a tray that collects the bale. The benefit You can start the next cycle while the rear door is still closing.

The unit eliminates the risk of pushing up crop in uneven windrows. As a result, the machine operates at maximum pick-up and output levels while the crop is flowing smoothly and consistently through the machine.

Massive augers feed the material from the sides to the middle of the machine, ensuring a smooth flow from the wide pick-up into the narrow bale chamber.

Boasting five rows of tines spaced 55 mm (2") apart, EasyFlow picks up even the short stems. The deflector plates are galvanized for ultimate durability.

The EasyFlow pick-up forms a compact unit that comprises either a feed rotor or a cutting rotor. The clearance between rotor and baling chamber was increased and the rotor was arranged right behind the pick-up itself to increase the intake capacity and ensure a consistent flow even in short stems.

• Top cutting quality by controlled cuts

• 64 mm (2.5") chops by the full set of 17 blades

• Quick LOC change by selecting a different number of blades in the cutting system

Up to 17 blades in the KRONE MultiCut rotor cutting system deliver short chops that make for quick payback on your investment thanks to higher bale densities, enhanced silage quality as well as easier and faster bale break-up on the feeding floor. Short straw chops absorb liquids more readily, spread more easily.

A maximum of 17 blades are narrowly spaced at 64 mm (2.5") to produce bales that are easy to break up and spread. The blades are arranged in one row for an excellent quality of cut.

The automatic ‘Non-Stop’ auto-reset system and the hydraulic 0-blade selection system are standard specification. The hydraulic 0-blade selection is used to remove potential blockages from the feed channel.

The double tines pull the crops consistently through the blades. The clearance between the blades and the double tines is very narrow so the crop cannot escape and the cuts are clean and precise.

• High baling densities

• Effective bale starts
