Wow!!! It looks bigger than say a regular round baler. Looks like you'll be able to bale from very dry to some what wet (or damp) bale and still make a quality hay bale!!! Awesome!!! Thanks for showing us this Krone baler......
We drive a Comprima for 3 years now and know all of her problems.. It cuts very well but at hay you don't should cut it to short with the 26 knives.. Thats only for silage to get the bale better compressed.. In hay we drive her with about 8 knives thats very good for the structur in our food for the cows.. Greetings from Austria
Krone balers are really popular especially in Europe. In the UK 🇬🇧 where I'm from we use Bigpack Krone Large Square baler on our farm for silage. A true German product built for a lifetime of success
Oh come on, that was like a tease. Very interested in seeing this run, mainly because you do one of the best jobs on RU-vid of explaining things. Other videos just show them working. Good luck, can't wait!
We went from an 855 New Holland to a belt style baler aka 688 then to br7090. Maybe the bar system has come a long ways but when the chain broke and sends a bar threw the hoods and smashed everything in it's path as it went by... I vowed to myself to never run a bar baler again. Looks nice. I like the precutter system. I run bale slice on my 7090 and love the way it feeds and breaks up the long stems of while doing rylage oatlage and haylage.
Excellent job giving us a overall idea about the machine. Krone is expensive but, they are well put together from my experience with them. Good luck young man.
One Lonely Farmer convinced u,see him bail with his Krone,awesome baler.i work on a farm that had a Krone round baler,do not know the size,made an awesome round bail
kb7722 right I have never seen someone complain so much about FREE equipment as well as getting paid to use the Free equipment. I don't know about anyone else but I would be beyond great full for anything and everything given to me and only require to make a 20min review on what he thinks about it.
James O Brien everyone has there own opinion and krone is our choice we use plus the serviceability and durability and no breakdowns that’s why , we tried others and issue is availability for service is the issue .
From our farms experience with krone we spent more time in the repair shop than we did in the field. We switched and have ran deere and have had no issues in the three years we’ve ran them.
Nice choice of brand I would keep the baler if u could I've had nothing but amazing comments about krone and if I'm not mistaking krone is famous for self- luberacting and I wanna know if ur gonna bale corn stalkes like last year
I haven't had much experience with Krone. But, when I saw that thumbnail with that big baler, I've never clicked faster! We round bale with a Hesston 930! So, we're not used to this kind of baler! Anyways, have a nice day!
I am a big John deere fan but when it comes to hay/silage equipment, in my opinion, is Krone the best brand on the market. You will not be disappointed. Would also love to see you use the new Deere baler and hear your opinion
In before the 4k, and I'm happy about that. This may be the best open secret on your channel yet. Too bad you didn't get to keep it any longer than you did like the Rhino deal.
I bought that bailer last year, the variable chamber is nice but I’ve had a few more problems with it then I’d like. I won’t get into the details here. Just thought I’d add my 2 cents. It does make well formed bales, but all balers in the same price range do that.
Easy to see why Wess runs Krone. Darn Germans engineer the daylights out of equipment just like tanks and 88s in WW2 still. Great upload. They would be smart like Rhino Ag to use marketing funds on demo farms also vs print and TV spots only. Maybe next year for all hay crops on rotation. Great upload.
The idea of the crop cutter is that the cows can eat more hay or silage =better live weight gain. Be careful handling chopped hay they can fall apart handy use lots of net.
lol reminds me of the old slate and chain New Hollands. Maintaining belts would seem to be more economical than that set up. Did they say what the maintenance schedule was on that apron? How many bales before an overhaul/ replacement?
Hello Comprima is top ! I had the model ROUND PACK 1250 and I have the FORTIMA 125 XC . I regret the pick up before because the new model is more fragile because the teeth of the pick up are fixes . Soon
The krone balers r the cats ass of balers, we demoed one for bailing straw and some hay to try the knife's out, we did 500 straw bales in about 10.5 hrs, the bales were comming out so fast we had ppl stopping on the road to watch, I still can't believe how packed they are too with making a bale every 25 second's in straw. Only problem is that they are alot of money, but I guess you get what you pay for
That was a great explanation of how the baler works . So, it seems this model, was for silage, true? or is the cutting and compaction of the bale, that much more beneficial for your bales? Thanks....love to see how farms work
Curious, with the knives chopping up the hay do you see more loss when feeding the bale and with the slats rather than belt do you see more loss in the field?? Good video of the new technology! thanks..
To bad OLF didn't talk you into square bales. Has krone got there part availability for parts figured out? Seemed like people had to wait a lot due to shipping to the dealers.
@@tabeverheij7115 Krones are also unnecessarily big most of the panels are oversized for the actual baler McHale are smaller neater machines also easier to service
i don't know if this would be good for dry hay production. looks like the crop cutter added to the chain belt system seem like they would just beat all the nutrition off the material. looks good for wet hay.
I have had got 3 krone balers,1800 vario pack. When they lounged this baler whit the new belt system there we're a lot of problems with. I switched to McHale balers, never go back to krone again. I see that they left allot of the old problems, the most irritating thing is the side panels when you open them you get all of the dust on your head. But the square balers are nice.
Wow everything old is new again... I remember the New Holland chain and slat balers... Most all of them are in the scrap yard. People said they just ground the hay to dust and had all sorts of problems, stripped leaves and beat the hay up pretty bad. There's a reason all the manufacturers went to belt type balers. I guess for silage since it's still in the 50% moisture range it doesn't matter, probably some advantages to the bar type baler, but for dry hay, not so much. Don't see how a fine chop from the cutter wouldn't be slipping between bars and dribbling stuff everywhere as it rolled it with all the space between bars, and the fact that the front and rear apron chains "hand off" the hay to each other. Then there's the fact that it's SLATS ATTACHED TO BELTS. Okay, so they're big heavy (hard to tell from the video but possibly *cogged* belts like a timing belt?) belts, but there's metal bars bolted to them some sort of way. Not the greatest from a longevity standpoint, and I bet those things cost a FORTUNE to repair or replace when they get worn. I've had German equipment and German engineering is absolutely second to NONE but this thing does look awfully complicated and convoluted. That netwrap system looked like a pain in the rear to reload and thread, for one thing. Good they have constant oilers on stuff, like that part. Would be better if most of the chains were enclosed in chain cases like the big squares (particularly OLF's). Like the camless pickup; that should save a lot of headaches versus the old cam-style pickups on everybody else's balers. I noticed that baler sure is LONG, and the pickup is a long way ahead of the wheels, which means it probably won't turn as tight or follow the ground as well with the pickup as other balers where the baler overall is shorter and the pickup is closer to the axle. Just my first impressions... I'm sure it's a fine baler, but probably more for silage IMHO... Later! OL J R :)
whe have two krones but whe dont let the netwrap go out when.its.almost out whe just cut the old rol and put the knew rol in ant tigh the new net rol on the old so you dont have tho re feet id becaus its ah pain
