the intake system
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

  • Quality six times over

6 pre-compression rollers for a top quality chop Hydraulic drive:
LOC steplessly adjustable from cab,
adjusts automatically with AutoScan Maximum protection against foreign objects:
long path from metal detector to chopping drum
metal detection across entire chamber width
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Constant, safe and convenient: Six pre-compression rollers and an 820 mm gap between the leading roller with metal detector and the rearmost roller not only enhance pre-compression but also protect the blades better against metal objects, even at high-speed intake. The hydraulic drive shaft automatically adjusts the LOC in line with the maturity of the crop, which is detected by the KRONE AutoScan sensor. If the engine speed drops below 1,200 rpm as the load increases, the header and intake system are stopped automatically while the chopping drum continues to turn – because blockages caused by low speeds cost time and money.
the core
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

The universal chopping drum

  • For grass, pre-wilted material, whole crop silage and maize
  • Chopping drums with 20, 28 or 36 blades
  • Plenty of carrying space under the blade carriers: high throughput and smoother running even on uneven swaths
  • Blades quick and easy to insert and remove
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

OptiMaize XL: The 20-blade drum cuts the kind of long lengths that are called for in some countries.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

This 28-blade unit is the universal drum. Used with just half the number of blades, it is perfect for producing long chops.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Handling massive throughputs and providing a wide range of cutting lengths, this 36-blade drum will earn its keep in no time. Remove half the blades and the unit is perfect for long chop applications.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

More space for more crop: The blade carriers are arranged and designed to allow plenty of space under the blades. This extra carrying space means higher throughputs and smoother running, particularly in grass.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

The special drum for short LOCs

  • The Biogas drum has 40 chevron-style blades and the Super-Biogas drum has 48
  • High cutting frequency
  • High inertia
  • Fewer overlengths
  • High gas yields
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Higher output, lower costs: Working with short LOCs, the KRONE Blade Biogas drum boosts throughputs by almost 25% over the 28-blade standard drum. What’s more, fuel consumption drops by up to 16% per tonne of chopped crop.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

40-blade drum: With its higher throughputs and lower fuel consumption per tonne of chopped maize, the 40-blade Biogas cylinder pays for itself in no time. The short stalks increase the efficiency of the biogas fermenter. With the higher gas yield per m³ of crop, less acreage is needed for biogas production.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

48-blade drum: The Super Biogas drum with 48 blades is specially designed to meet the needs of modern biogas plants. Delivering a 20% higher cutting frequency than the 40-blade drum and a theoretical LOC ranging from just 2 to 12 mm, this Biogas drum produces an even shorter chop, boosting gas yields and throughput at the biogas plant even further and reducing fuel consumption per tonne of crop with the same LOC.
roller conditioner
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Two systems for your success

  • Perfect kernel treatment
  • Huge diameter roller: 250 mm
  • Optional high-performance disc conditioner for BiG X 700, 850 and 1100 with a 2.5 x larger friction surface.
  • Roll gap adjusted conveniently from the cab
  • Perfect treatment: the right teeth for your corn

 
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

KRONE corn conditioner cracks every kernel: The 250 mm diameter rollers have a larger friction surface area than the smaller diameter toothed rollers and can be operated with a larger roll gap for greater efficiency and fuel economy and better long stalk conditioning. The speed difference between the two rollers is 20% or, optionally, 30% or 40% for whole crop silage. The new disc conditioner with the larger friction surface works at the same speed and is designed to cope with the high throughputs BiG X is capable of. The corn conditioner is quick and easy to install and remove.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Variable roller gap: The roller gap is adjusted steplessly from the cab via two electric motors in a range from 0.5 mm to 10 mm (0.02"- 0.4"). The operator can see the current setting on the display.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Hard chrome coating: The chrome plated corn conditioner rollers are exceptionally durable and have an extremely long service life. The rollers measure 250 mm in diameter and are studded with 105, 123 or 144 teeth.

A KRONE exclusive

  • Consistent performance with irregular crop flow
  • Extremely smooth running even on uneven swaths
  • Maximize throughputs
  • Top quality chop
  • Extremely user-friendly
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Outstanding quality chop even in an uneven crop flow: The spring-loaded chopping drum floor is connected to the anvil of the counterblade at the front. This means that the clearance between the chopping drum floor and the blades is always constant. So any movement of the spring-loaded chopping drum floor to compensate for an uneven crop flow won’t affect the quality of chop.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Consistent throw with a tight crop stream: The spring-loaded backplate on the crop accelerator ensures maximum crop output in all conditions, filling the trailer to perfection.
streamcontrol
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Adjustable crop throw

  • Crop throw adjusted at the touch of a button from the cab
  • Tight crop stream even with a long crop throw
  • The shorter the crop throw, the less power is needed
  • Fills the trailer accurately with no spillage
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Short crop throw: For a short crop throw with the trailer driving alongside, the crop stream leaves the spout at a lower speed. This saves power, which can be used to boost chopping output.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Long crop throw: With the trailer following behind, the crop stream needs to be ejected from the spout at a higher speed. A strong, tight stream is needed to cover the long distance over the tractor to the rear wall of the trailer.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Crop accelerator: The paddles are designed for high crop output and guide the crop flow towards the middle.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Adjusting the crop throw distance: The crop throw is controlled via the hinged flap on the backplate of the accelerator. For a short throw, the flap is tilted out of the crop flow, so there is little contact between the crop and the accelerator. For a long throw, the flap is tilted into the crop flow, so there is more contact between the crop and the accelerator.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Joystick control: The crop throw is quick and easy to control with the buttons on the joystick control panel.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

In control: Additional control buttons are provided in the control unit for extra convenience.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Stepless electric motor control: The hinged flap on the backplate of the accelerator is adjusted steplessly via an electric servomotor.

Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100
  • Camless pick-up
    More output, quieter running, less wear
  • Stepless speed adjustment from the cab
  • EasyFlow speed automatically adjusts to driving speed
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Two work widths: Working at widths of 3 or 3.8 m and using six rows of tines 55 m apart, the camless KRONE pick-ups are extremely thorough even when working in high-volume swaths. Depending on the swath width and your working speed, you can vary the speed of the EasyFlow steplessly from the cab. Alternatively, the speed can be automatically matched to your driving speed. EasyFlow 380 is marketed in selected export markets.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Cutting and chopping in one pass: KRONE XDisc is the versatile specialist mowing unit for whole crop silage. It cuts the crop cleanly and without wastage. The huge 900 mm diameter auger makes the BiG X enormously powerful and has no trouble picking up very long, bulky material.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Safe as houses: If the system is suddenly overloaded, instead of the impact being directed fully onto the spur gears on the cutterbar, a roll pin in the sprocket drive shaft shears. A thread on the sprocket drive shaft jacks up the disc, lifting it out of the danger area and above the orbits of the neighbouring discs. SafeCut protects the spur gear driveshaft and the neighbouring discs against damage. The roll pins can be replaced in just a few minutes and cost next to nothing.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

SmartCut: Because the mower discs turn in both directions, the individual disc orbits must overlap precisely to ensure a clean cut. Therefore we increased the overlap between those discs that turn outwards – achieving stripeless cuts. In addition, the blades turning to the rear are set further apart to encourage a smooth flow of large volumes of crop.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Unique wingspan – enormous acreage: Working at widths of up to 10.5 m, BiG X takes the widest variable-row width maize headers in the world. The endless collectors feed the stalks to the middle of the machine, where they are turned through 90° and pulled in lengthwise. Ideal for a top quality chop with fewer overlengths.
the engine
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Pure power

  • 8 and 12 cylinder MAN engines
  • Transversely mounted V-engine
  • Huge torque, tremendous power
  • Guarantees massive throughputs
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

V-engine mounted sideways: The engine is mounted sideways for optimum weight distribution. The direct driveline to the crop flow components translates into great fuel economy. Common Rail injection technology makes these MAN V engines extremely fuel-efficient.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

  • Chopping drum driven by extra-strong poly V-belts
  • Intake system driven hydraulically
  • Headers driven hydraulically
  • Hydraulic drive shaft
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Clever design: The header and intake system are driven via oil pumps. This concept allows the header and intake speeds to be adjusted steplessly - ideal for adjusting automatically to varying harvesting conditions.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Ground drive: Courtesy of a hydro pump flange-mounted on the engine, Big X travels infinitely variably, having its ground speed set either automatically or manually from the cab. The driveline works reliably, guaranteeing maximum safety.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Powering the assemblies: The chopping drum and the accelerator are powered directly by the sideways-mounted engine via a poly V-belt. The accelerator shaft drives the poly V-belt for the corn conditioner on the other side. To reverse the intake system and the header, the poly V-belt to the chopping drum is slackened.

digitalsystems
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

DigitalSystems is KRONE’s electronic system that optimizes machine utilization even further and provides a substantial relief to the operator. DigitalSystems gives peace of mind in arduous conditions plus it reads outs all relevant harvest information.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

AutoScan: Adjusting chop length automatically to crop maturity
The photo-optic sensor in the middle of the corn head measures the maturity of the plant and automatically adjusts the length of cut to achieve a uniform chop quality and reduce silage effluent in the clamp by leading to longer cuts in green corn. Vice versa, when harvesting dry corn the material is cut to shorter chops for more effective compaction in the clamp. AutoScan reduces driver effort and saves fuel, because the stalks are cut only as short as necessary and not as short as possible. AutoScan is a KRONE standard and not an expensive extra.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

ConstantPower: Automatic engine top speed control
ConstantPower automatically adjusts the machine‘s ground speed to the engine loading. Select the desired engine loading at a touch of a button. The machine
adjusts fully automatically forward speed to match the current crop conditions and yield levels. This standard feature reduces operator stress and ensures highest
throughputs at lowest fuel rates. In combination with AutoScan the system adds another dimension to the overall quality of chop and machine performance
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

RockProtect: Stone detector
The 6 pre-compression rollers are powerful and soft at the same time. They halt fully automatically within milliseconds after the RockProtect system detects a stone. The optional system provides intelligent protection from damage by stones, with the operator setting its sensitivity. More protection – more peace of mind.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

CropControl: Yield metering
The optional yield metering system from KRONE measures the volume of crop currently harvested. Retrieve the data from a touch of a button and print it out at the end of the day – both individual field counts and total count. CropControl allows you to document all yield information on the fields harvested by you.
Krone BiG X 700 | 850 | 1100

Moisture Measurement: Crop moisture sensing system
Our optional moisture sensing system on BiG X allows operators to determine the crop’s moisture easily and fast in the field. These data give insight on the condition
of the crop and assist you in producing quality silage.
