KRONE Comprima F155 XC Round Baler

F155 (XC) The Comprima with semi-variable bale chamber  for maximum flexibility

The KRONE Comprima F 155 (XC) is a fixed-chamber round balers with semi-variable bale chamber. They bale highly compacted, dimensionally stable bales of 6 different diameters. This technology is unique on the market. They are also very costeffective and exceptionally easy to operate and service – thanks to their uncluttered build and design. With their sturdy frame, the balers are also extremely robust and versatile. Whether silage, hay or straw – the all-round talent transforms all types of
crops into bales of a consistently high quality.

KEY FEATURES: 

• The Comprima F 155 can roll bales of a diameter between 1.25 m and 1.50 m. Operators simply set the required diameter in 5 cm increments on an easy-to-use system. Thus, the machine combines many advantages of fi xed and variable chamber balers.
• They are also very cost-effective and exceptionally easy to operate and service – thanks to their uncluttered build and design. It can unload bales of diff erent diameters and compacts from the outside to the inside; with larger bale diameters, it leaves only a very small soft core. Thus, it achieves high bale weights.
• The Comprima F and CF 155 operate with a semi-variable bale chamber. They roll tightly compacted, dimensionally stable bales of 1.25 to 1.50 m diameter, adjustable in 5-cm steps. 
• Thanks to their simple and uncluttered build, these balers are particularly easy to service. So less  time is spent on attending to the machine, and productivity increases. The bale diameter is set by refi tting two pins. The general bale density is also adjustable.
• The unique semi-variable baling system Three components are key to this bale chamber: the tensioning rocker, the spring support and the tensioning kinematics. During baling, the top tensioning rocker is pulled down as the bale chamber is filled, making room for the crop inside the bale chamber. Simply insert a bolt for easy limiting the path of the tensioning rocker and thus setting the bale diameter. The spring support combined with the tensioning kinematics provide for optimum baling density in the core as well as in the outer layers of the round bale.
• Only the Comprima F und V models have the single axle. They can be fitted with three different tyre widths for sward protection that range from 15.0/55-17 10 to 500/55-20.
• A tandem axle is standard specification on the CF and CV combination baler and wrappers and an option on the F and V models. Tandem axles offer greater tongue loads, smoother rides and better road stability than a single axle.
• As they offer a larger contact area, they also reduce rutting and protect the soil. There are also three different tyre sizes from 15.0/55-17 10 PR to 500/55-20 available for this axle assembly. 
• Comprima has a standard 40 mm hitch ring for bottomor top-mount attachment. A notch system adjusts the drawbar quickly to the required attachment height. In addition to this, there is a choice of three further hitch options that meet specific needs in specific countries.
• The hitch with ball-head attachment As an alternative, the Comprima can also be equipped with a ball-head attachment 80 in the bottom hitching. This warrants smoothest rides, better manoeuvrability and minimum wear.
• A compressed air brake system is standard specification on both the single axle and tandem axle models. Machines for export can also be equipped with hydraulic brakes.
• The EasyFlow pick-up pivots sideways and is known as the pick-up that clears the field effectively even in the most difficult conditions and at high work rates. More than that, its rugged build with very few moving parts gives an exceptionally dependable performance.
• The feed rotor and the cutting rotor of the XCut cutting unit are characterized by high throughput, smooth running and high reliability. Furthermore, XCut stands for excellent cutting quality
• XCut cutting unit blades have long, curved cutting edges, which give particularly fuel-effi cient cuts as the grass is pulled past them.
• Depending on the desired cut length for the crops, the XCut cutting unit has a blade cassette for maximum 17 or maximum 26 blades. When 8, 9 or 17 blades are in working position, the blades are spaced at 128 mm or 64 mm. When 13 or 26 blades are in working position, the blades are spaced at 84 mm or 42 mm.
• Manual blade group control and the optional hydraulic blade group control system is operated from the tractor seat, hence saving valuable time.
• The NovoGrip is an endless slat conveyor that is made up of rubber fabric belts that turn the crops into high-density and well-shaped bales. NovoGrip offers ultimate strength and longevity and forms perfect bales from the heaviest silage.
• Whether with net or base coat of film, the tying unit on a Comprima is extremely reliable and easy to use.
• The Comprima wrapper wraps the bales fast and reliably – even in difficult conditions and in sloping fields.
• Designed for premium bale productivity and density, the Comprima also convinces by its uncluttered design and exemplary accessibility. These features make it particularly easy to service. Grease banks and the automatic chain lubrication system reduce the time that is required for service and  maintenance to a minimum.
• KRONE offers a choice of four different terminals that cater for different applications and needs, making the Comprima round balers easier to use and notching up the work rate. All this makes the baler fun to use.
• The KRONE net and film program is always a cost-efficient solution. It offers highquality products for the best possible wrapping and silage results and highest forage quality.
