THE NEW REXOR PLATINUM BEET HARVESTER

In 2009 GRIMME launched the six row self-propelled beet har-vester REXOR 620 with a 20 ton bunker.

In 2009 GRIMME launched the six row self-propelled beet harvester REXOR 620 with a 20 ton bunker. Four years later the three-axle chassis version with 30 ton bunker, the REXOR 630 was introduced.

Both model ranges are equipped with extensive new and further developments for model year 2019. The focus of the new generation is on crop protection and performance enhancement, driver comfort and digitization. Another visible feature is the new modern design of the two-axle REXOR 6200 Platinum and the three-axle REXOR 6300 Platinum.

 

Crop protection and performance enhancement

The three large dimensioned turbines got new tines, those ensure a more gentle cleaning and faster transport of the crop. The guide bars at the turbines can be quickly and easily adapted by the driver to the respective digging conditions.  Spring tine packages are available as option for clay rich and sticky soils. The new quick change system allows a simple modification from guide bars to spring tines. Incorrect settings are minimized. Load depending speed regulation of the turbines and the ring elevator Speedtronic, integrated as standard, relieves the operator and ensures further crop protection.

The new and unique 90 cm wide ring elevator got large volume pockets, which increase the throughput by up to 25 %. Due to the higher capacity, the ring elevator can run much slower, which increases gentle crop handling and reduces wear. In addition, the transfer points have been optimised and a rotating shaft prevents soil build-up and weed deposition between the second cleaning turbine and the ring elevator.

The new and unique drop height reducer ensures a gentle crop transfer from the ring elevator into the bunker. The drop height reducer is controlled fully automatically so that the driver does not have to take over any control tasks. The transfer from the length-to the cross scraper floor has been optimised, to avoid beet and beet top fractures.

The 1.8 meter wide unloading elevator can be lowered twice, so that the drop height of the beets to create a clamp is very low and the overloading onto a transport vehicle is made easier. It is possible to fold in the bend, so that there is no longer danger even when digging e.g. under deep hanging power lines. New is also the automatically flashing beacon light, to signal the pre-set bunker filling level to the driver of the transport vehicle.

 

Driver comfort

Noticeable improvements in almost all areas are made for the driver. Thr driver's cab is the quietest on the market thanks to optimised sound insulation. The new premium driver's seat  is equipped with extra high backrest and headrest, significantly improved suspension comfort, seat heating and air-conditioning system. The optimised narrow bunker shape in the front, for a significant improved visibility of the unloading conveyor. The new powerful LED lighting system turns night into day. LED strips are integrated into the engine cabinet to ensure safe working even in difficult lighting conditions. ProCam is available as an option, with which the driver can monitor the left and right sides of the machine via two special cameras and an additional monitor.

The saving and recall of individual machine parameters as well as the Visual Protect function monitoring system are standard.

The ErgoDrive operating concept allows for intuitive control and easy access to all functions for the driver. The operator can save and personalise particular settings as required. Individual and field specific settings can be stored and retrieved conveniently by the operator. Modern LED headlights turn night into day, and the coming-home function allows for the driver to leave the machine safely. Air compressor connections at the cabin side and in the engine compartment allow for easy cleaning. The 15 litre hand washing container is just as easy to reach as the toolbox. A large storing compartment in the bunker of the REXOR 6300 for e.g. hydraulic oil, wear parts. AdBlue etc. is standard. Both REXOR models are available as 20, 25, 32 or 40 kmph versions with road approval.

 

Digitization

The data management system OPTIPLAN or OPTIPLAN plus incl. printer and GPS receiver module are available as an option. The connection to the myGRIMME portal is free of charge and the corresponding telemetry unit is standard on board.

For all self-propelled GRIMME harvester are individual agreed service packages are available, which include the full service incluisive wearing parts in the highest stage PROTECT.
