Lely Welger RP 205

DESCRIPTION

The RP205 is a high-quality baler for companies that only bale hay and straw. The 2.25 m wide pick-up ensures it is also suitable for the wide swaths of combine harvesters.Larger intake and perfect bales
The Lely Welger RP 205 is equipped with the tried and tested bale chamber with eighteen rollers and mechanical tail-gate locking system. The unprecedented capacity of this bale chamber is well known. The RP 205 is equipped with a spacious packer feed rotor as standard so this capacity can be utilised even in the most dense crops. The Lely Welger RP 205 has no chopping system as an option. As a consequence, this series offers excellent possibilities for cattle farmers and contractors who do not need to chop, but who do want to make heavy bales.Easy to adjust
The new drawbar for the Lely Welger RP 205 is already used in other Lely Welger round balers. It is very easy to set this new two-section drawbar into the correct position. Consequently the bale chamber is always in the right position behind the tractor.Maximum crop pick-up
A unique characteristic of the baler is a new 2.25 m camless pick-up. The five tine bar pick-up is equipped with new tines that are robustly attached. The clever placement of the tracks and the short distance to the rotor ensure good crop throughput.Intelligent drive
The Lely Welger RP 205 is equipped with a simple one-sided drive. The bale chamber does not have a chopping system, so a strong drive is not needed. The lighter one-sided drive demands little power and saves fuel.Eco-friendly chain lubrication
Narrow swaths and wet crops present the biggest challenge to the baler drive. With that in mind, the standard automatic chain?lubrication system ensures that all drive chains are constantly lubricated, guaranteeing a long life. The amount of oil can be set for each chain. The oil is applied directly onto the chain with brushes.Balercontrol E – anything a user may need
The Balercontrol E unit is a simple yet highly efficient system that informs the operator as soon as the bale has reached its correct density. Thereafter, the operator can choose a set-up for automatic or manual start of tying. Bale density is adjusted on the baler itself. The Balercontrol E unit also indicates the number of bales produced per day as well as the total bale count.As standard, the Lely Welger RP 205 model comes with:

• 2.25 m camless pick-up
  • Star-shaped feed rotor
  • Automatic chain lubrication
  • Bale chamber with eighteen rollers
  • Balercontrol E
  • Mechanical tail-gate locking system
  • Self-cleaning bearing housings

Pick-UpNew pick-up for modern baler
The new free running pick-up of Lely Welger RP balers has been designed as a result of the increased output from these machines. Improved crop throughput to the bale chamber has eliminated the need for the specific movement of a conventional pick-up. With no cam track the pick-up consists of fewer moving parts. It is more reliable, less sensitive to wear quiet and maintenance free.More tine bars – cleaner pick-up
Due to the additional space created through the absence of a cam track and cam followers, 5 tine bars are now fitted to the pick-up. Along with the 64 mm interspace of the tines this allows a 25% increase in pick-up capacity resulting in an even better and cleaner pick-up of the crop.New pick-up – new tines
The tines are the most crucial parts of a pick-up and therefore a completely new tine has been developed for this pick-up.

• The angle of the tine has been adjusted to ensure the cleanest possible pick-up under all conditions.
• The longer tine is more flexible and featuresi mproved adaptation possibilities.
• The tine is made of material with a 5.60 mm thickness, which favours tine life. Due to the larger coil, the tine remains flexible.
• Improved tine fixation prevents tine breakage as the tension within the material is more evenly spread.

Closer to the rotor – improved crop throughput
Due to the more compact construction the new pick-up is closer to the rotor. Consequently the rotor removes the crop from the pick-up easier ensuring improved crop flow, especially with awkward, short material, this is transported to the bale chamber far more efficiently. Improved crop flow means a better bale shape, plus increased output.Wear-resistant and maintenance-free
Since the new free running pick-up does not have a cam track, the pick-up unit consists of fewer moving parts. It is more reliable, less sensitive to wear, quiet and maintenance-free.Numerous benefits

• The new camless free running pick-up by Lely:
• Boasts high capacity thanks to good crop flow.
• Power saving due to not having cam followers.
• Has fewer moving parts because there is no need for a cam track.
• Is maintenance-free because the components need no lubrication.

Crop press roller
The crop press roller assists the pick-up when handling a smaller crop volume, ensuring efficient flow due to its rotation. The roller is also improving bale shape by evening out large quantities of crop without creating lumps. This roller is a quality and output increasing factor at all times.Chopping System
Chopping silage improves your results in many ways
Lely Welger offer many options when choosing a chopping system for your baler. Initially this may seem like an additional investment but chopping the crop will help improve the quality of your forage and thereby your results in so many ways that you actually need more reasons not to choose one.Xtracut – extra output and additional comfort
To ensure optimum performance when chopping, Lely Welger have designed the Xtracut17 and Xtracut25 chopping mechanisms with selectable knife banks. The operator can select from the E-link control box in the cab various knife bank selections when baling different crops, which is ideal for contractors. Both machines have two sets of knife banks that are hydraulically protected. So on the Xtracut17 you have an option of not chopping, or 8 or 9 or 17 knives engaged. On the Profi you have a choice of not chopping, or 12 or 13 or 25 knives engaged.Chopping length’s that can be easily adjusted
From the tractor cab the operator can – via the E-link control – easily adjust the chopping length required by using both knife banks at the same time, or disengaging one. For the Xtracut25 this means a chopping length of 45 mm when all knives are engaged, or 90 mm when using 12 knives. Otherwise both groups can also be disengaged.Always sharp knives
Timely changing of knives ensures a proper chopping action, reduced fuel consumption and also eliminates excessive wear of knives. The Xtracut option offers flexibility to the operator using one bank of knives. When necessary the second bank of knives can be engaged in one simple operation from the tractor cab ensuring continuing high output with a new sharp set of knives.
