The automatic baling pressure system detects and

The sensor on the baler frame transmits one of the

New chamber concept for high density.
The harvested crop is highly compacted in the bale chamber
to produce solid, stable bales with hydraulic adjustment of the
baling channel from the comfort of the cab. Each bale is compressed and shaped to a uniform density and length; the perfect result for a balanced and seamless truck-loading procedure.
Smooth drop.
Important information for all contact balers: with the optional
bale ejector, the bale chamber is fully cleared, since it also
ejects the last two bales.
When it comes to cleaning and preparing the baler for winter,
too, nothing remains behind. You can control the bale ejector
directly on the exterior of the baler.
The roller bale chute slides the bales gently onto the field.
Two bales in one go.
With the DUO PACK bale accumulator hooked up, two bales
can be stacked one on top of the other and subsequently
deposited onto the field as a large-size stack. This produces
stacks 80 cm in width and 100 cm in height that can be
loaded directly onto conveyor vehicles using suitable clamps.

Perfect knots.
Legendary.
CLAAS received its very first patent for a knotter hook,
which was awarded a DGL medal in 1921.
The original principle of the knotter was invented in
1861, and more than 1 million of them have now been
made.
Both of these inventions are further enhanced in the
new QUADRANT machines, to operate reliability with
any type of twine, in all operating conditions.

A further advantage: the knotters do not produce dangerous
twine residues that can cause animal fatalities during feeding
or leave residues when the bales are burned for power generation.

Economic efficiency.
CLAAS baling twine is specifically designed for CLAAS knotters. The twine is highly tear-resistant and sufficiently flexible to
minimise wear to the knotter. With each new refilling, four
twine spools per knotter can be tied together without having
to alternate between them, which saves time. An intelligent
balance of high knot tightness and efficient run length makes
CLAAS baling twine a cost-effective choice. CLAAS baling
twine is available for all balers, and for different operating conditions.
Outstanding knotter cleaning.
The dual fan of the QUADRANT 4000 removes unwanted
stalk parts, short straw and dust from the knotter area to
ensure perfect work results and outstanding functional reliability even in extremely dry conditions. What’s more, the system
virtually eliminates the time required for cleaning.
The hydraulically driven TURBO FAN system in the QUADRANT 5200 and 4200 protects the knotters against contamination with a constant 140-km/h airflow, ensuring the uniform
cleaning of all knotters.
Productive.
The QUADRANT's generously dimensioned twine boxes open
up at the side for easier access during twine replacements
and for cleaning the machine.
In the QUADRANT 5200 and 4200, the twine boxes are
loaded with 24 11.5-kg spools, and in the QUADRANT 4000
with 16 11.5-kg spools – more than enough for a long day in
the field.
And when night starts to draw in, bright work lights placed by
the twine guides and knotters keep everything well lit.

NEW: knotter monitoring system.
Combining with the new CLAAS knotter to ensure total tying
reliability is the automatic baling pressure control. There are
two sets of sensors: on the the knotter, to monitor the twine
tension, and on the front frame, to measure the bending
forces. The system adjusts the baling pressure automatically
according to the load. That means you can operate the baler
right up to the limit, without the twine breaking. And if a breakage does occur, this is displayed on your control panel by the
knotter monitoring system.
The knotter sensors also detect when a fresh supply of twine
is needed, and a message is displayed accordingly.
