Moin moin,
I sign today after a busy week again from the Kings County. Since the demonstration had to be canceled last Monday due to the onset of rain in the morning, we, Steve Silver and I, Monday and Tuesday some customers visited. And I'm from super well maintained equipment and satisfied customers to almost not maintained equipment and be seen, therefore unhappy customers the full range. As expected, the satisfied customer, however, were in the majority. Here two pictures of my personal highlights from poor maintenance:
Personally, I have no idea why someone would deal so casually with his equipment. In all seriousness was pressed with the pickup in this state, and what you had in mind when remodel the ductwork of the knot cleaning - no idea. Logically, these customers will tell but that the crown does not press satisfactory performance. Here these problems are homemade doubt. Without a minimum of maintenance, it is not easy - neither us nor the competition. And if you compare our product with the competition, you will notice that the maintenance of the BiG Pack is very small. A central lubrication system supplies almost all the important points always fat. Piston bearings, VFS and storage nodes, and many other lubrication points are greased so permanent. Only the drive shafts and a few points on the steering axis must occasionally be manually fed with fat. Also, the drive concept of the BiG Pack - largely without chains and shear bolts - with its shafts and gears and slip clutches and cam at all important points is designed for reliable and durable operation. I guess that's the only reason why such a 'bad press can be maintained at all still produce bales.
The main problem the customer was the ball shape. Both BiG Pack 1290 XC the bales would leave permanently bent either right or left, the ball chamber, and then would often burst the strings.
All I can say this: if you short the swath before pressing again on one side throws to bring the bottom up, then the plume is no longer uniform. I also had to fill in this field problems, the chamber properly - some were two windrows raked together so far, that neither one could hold both still clean. Still produced the HDP accurate bales - without any bending. The problem of rapid threads cleared up then when you look into the twine. Only the cheapest yarn knot strength of 300 kgf was found there. And, because something better knot strength yarn with 480 kgf whole $ 4 a role expensive.
Well, if the customer wants to go for 4 dollars a risk, and always wants to bale presses again, let him do that. But I digress
on the topic. Here I would actually report on our demonstrations, and I do not have the negligence of other missed. Also, if something pretty annoyed me ... So, our press has even under these adverse conditions again works very well and the ball looked perfect - Unlike the other environment that more resembled a battlefield.
afternoon came by our JCB merchants from Washington to care for our Vorführschlepper because he wanted to see the machine in the field. Besides, I had in the past now and then some funny sounds in solo ride that he wanted to listen some times. So we have after the screening suspended the press and turned some laps.
The next morning we had another show - for another crown BiG Pack owners. He has two very well tended Krone Big Pack 1290 HDP, in 2007 and 2008, and he cares about his model machines. And if he has a flawed, then he is looking so long for a solution that guarantees no more until the hiccups may occur. In him we have a hand presented to him to show the current state of the art, and partly because he is very interested in the Harvest Tec moisture measurement system. The field on which we have laid out, was perfectly suited. Strong re-growth, based on the terminal Harvest Tec frequently a bar with 24 - 32% humidity was soaring. And the insane, was exactly these points could then be found with the moisture meter. The system is working very well - our customers but also made a little nervous. For these wet spots could heat up so much that this whole Heulagerhallen are already burned. The problem is that these places without a continuous measurement unfortunately rare to find.
In these photos you can see the differences on the field. Brown areas and green spaces alternate. And in some bales of green spots could be seen.
Here is a picture of Harvest Tec screen. Here he is in manual mode because we use only the moisture measuring device, and not with the dispenser. Above left you can see a graph showing the last 90 seconds of the measurement. Each bar is available for 3 seconds fairs. Measured by means of star wheels, the resistance across the whole bale. To the right is LO% - from 6% there is the actual measured value.
Bottom left, you watch 'Last Bale'. This value is the average humidity of the last bales. If one computer then tells how heavy the bales, he shows an even more data such as tonnage.
Here one can see the two presses of the customers he operates easily with a Case Puma 165 with 145 PTO hp. On these areas, which works well, but once you get in mountainous terrain, you need a little more power.
After the demonstration we had in the evening then another at a customer who currently works for his Dairy (dairy farm) or with three of its own self Freeman drivers. A picture of this machine I would not deny you.
Here they were delighted by the Crown technology - especially since the difference is the driver of a self-Freeman BiG Pack HDP almost such a leap as from medieval to modern times.
Friday evening, I then presented at another dairy, where you currently working with two Hesston 4910, and here again the enthusiasm was very great. Due to the small swath we had to squeeze 12-13 mp / h, where we had there are still too many food packages in the ball. It was supposed to go faster. The Hesston Balers went with little more than half speed across the field. The son of the customer, who pressed for the whole evening , has the joy and enthusiasm at work was considered normal. And even here, the bales were re-1A. Hopefully they were not there for the recovery technology too heavy.
So much for last week!
Next week I will move northward, and then his equipment location in the Turlock area of the Pioneer. Until then I wish you well!
Greetings Niklas
