Technology: Grimme presents the new generation of the Varitron series of two-row self-propelled vehicles
Grimme presents the new generation of its two-row self-propelled Varitron series. The focus of this renewal was on the new cab with a revised operating concept and several improvements to the product flow for vegetable and potato harvesting.
The new interior is characterized by generous legroom, narrow pillars, and dual-zone automatic climate control. The large front window provides an unobstructed view of the display. A swiveling leather seat and many other important improvements complete the comfortable and intuitive operation via the large CCI 1200 with Grimme Digital Interface (GDI).
The SmartView video system’s 12" display allows monitoring of all functions with up to 13 cameras. Live zoom and slow motion functions are included in the series, along with the flexible design. New LED lighting improves all-round visibility, even at night and in poor weather. To document performance, the Varitron can now be equipped with an integrated performance measurement system.
Recording with all the possibilities
To enable flexible use of the new two-row Varitron models under different conditions, a changeover device is available for exchanging the recording components. This makes variable use in different crops much easier and can be implemented time-efficiently. The depth control concept continues with "TerraDisc" and "TerraControl." Standardized interfaces allow for quick changes, similar to what we already know from four-row machines.
Improvements in cleaners
A new spiral roller is available for the axial roller cleaner. The material composition has been modified and the lip height has been almost doubled. This allows impurities to pass through while simultaneously increasing cleaning capacity and reducing wear.
Unique in this machine class is the double cleaner in combination with a hedgehog belt. Combinations of the double MultiSep and the axial roller cleaner and MultiSep are possible. The TwinSep can be used to bypass the axial roller cleaner and achieve a crop that protects the crop.
To eliminate possible blockages, all sieve belts, hedgehog belts, and the ring lift can be rotated individually and easily from the cabin.
Comfortable reading spot
The optional canopy, available with or without side panels, protects the reading staff from the elements. The white canopy roof promotes clear recognition of the green tubers.
