The DISCO RC AUTO SWATHER combines innovative new developments with proven DISCO features – low power consumption with outstanding chop quality, hydropneumatic ACTIVE FLOAT suspension and optional high-cut skids to ensure low crude ash contamination and low wear, comfort functions such as automatic slope control, mirroring of belt units with unilateral swath laying, reversing mechanism, automatic belt folding for transportation, BELT BOOST function for perfect swath finish, as well as non-stop collision protection, extremely easy maintenance and much more. The DISCO RC AUTO SWATHER shares several features with the DISCO BUSINESS models:

During a DLG test in (DLG Test Report ) with two AXION CMATIC tractors with trailed cultivators, CEMOS for Tractors was found to reduce fuel consumption by up to . per cent and increase area output by up to . per cent compared with an experienced field of international drivers. By continuously comparing sensor data on actual ground speed, tractive power, wheel slip, fuel consumption, engine speed and transmission ratio, along with other variables, CEMOS was shown to provide valuable assistance even for expert drivers – so even the best can be even better. Through this process of continuous data synchronisation, the system can precisely identify and quantify optimal operating states and variables during dynamic field work and then, using a dialogue-based interface, suggest ongoing adjustments to the driver. This is what makes CEMOS different from other purely static systems without the self-learning function.

When it came to engine technology, Mercedes-Benz was again the obvious choice. The . l OM LA six-cylinder in-line engine is familiar from the JAGUAR and LEXION and combines enormous torque with fuel efficiency and low maintenance costs. In the XERION . this power unit delivers hp from rpm and up to hp in the XERION .. Turbo compound technology with wastegate turbocharger ensures enormous power development, even at low engine speeds, and maximum efficiency under full and partial load at the same time. As a result, the maximum torque – an impressive Nm in the XERION . – is available even at rpm. The idling speed is set at a low rpm.

Cutting lucerne, winter forage and whole-crop silage is a special challenge for mowers. While lucerne is a fragile crop that calls for particularly gentle conditioning, like whole-crop silage and winter forage, it also produces high yields so the mower has to handle high volumes of material as well. Efficient crop flow is therefore just as important as robust, sturdy drives and high-performance swath grouping with optimised swath formation. These features are becoming increasingly relevant with the growing cultivation of biomass substrates such as sorghum and rising share of lucerne in crop rotations – reflecting the move to more localised protein production for livestock farming.

The two models come in above the XERION - and feature the highly efficient low-engine speed drive concept ., maximum power outputs of up to hp, the CEMOS operator assistance system, an enormous hydraulic pump capacity of up to l/min and a new spacious cab with four-point suspension. In addition, the TERRA TRAC models are equipped with newly developed, damped crawler tracks from CLAAS Industrietechnik – making them stronger than ever: stronger on profitability, stronger on tractive power, stronger on comfort and stronger on assistance.
