Krone has announced a series of updates to its Swadro TC 1250 Pro four-rotor rakes, bringing a series of operational features into the standard equipment.
The Pro specification of the 12.5m machine will now include load-sensing hydraulics as standard, as well as Isobus control to make it easier to operate.
Active hydraulic rotor relief has been brought down from the 1370 Pro and 1570 Pro, providing ground adaption across the working width. At the headland, the integrated vibration damper absorbs fluctuations and stops the machine from rocking, reducing the load on the frame.
It also includes the Soft-Down automatic lowering system, cushioning the rotors just before they hit the ground, protecting the sward.
Single-rotor and paired rotor lifting are standard, with an automatic system that delays the lift of the rear rotors when the end of the row is reached. Section control is also available, controlling the postion and lift of the rotors based on guidance maps.
