DESCRIPTION
The Lely Welger RP 415 range features perfect specifications for use in silage hay and straw when there is no need to chop the crop. The feed rotor and wide pick-up have been designed for easy processing of wide swaths while the proven CPS ensures optimum bale density. The best indication for the outstanding quality and sustainability of these balers can be found in the name… Lely Welger!
Wide pick-up – Large swathsThe RP 415 model has a 2.25 m wide free running pick-up with five tine bars. Pick-up capacity is huge; the long 5.60 mm tines have large coils and are therefore ideal to retrieve the crop from high stubble. Due to their great flexibility, the tines can easily adjust to uneven ground contours, thus eliminating contamination. Suspension of the pick-up is adjustable and perfect ground contour following is ensured in combination with the height chains and pick-up wheels.
Good crop intake – Optimum resultsAn even and constant crop flow is of paramount importance to good output and bale shape. Especially with balers with a wide pick-up a good feed system means the difference between a smooth, continued operation and “jerking and jolting” feeding of the crop. Due to the two transport augers, the crop that is collected on the outside of the pick-up is effortlessly conveyed to the 1.25 m wide entrance of the baler. Thus, the outer layers of the bale are even and compact.
Large feed rotor – Maximum throughputThe Welger RP 415 model features a 500 mm diameter feed rotor with large tines. Due to the diameter of the rotor shaft, the opening to the bale chamber is maximal, which ensures a tremendous flow. Power requirements remain low thanks to the low resistance in the feed channel.
CPS – Best bales, highest speedFor round balers, the start of the bale is crucial in terms of bale shape and output. The mechanical part of the CPS ensures flexibility for the belts, making the starting of a bale smooth and easy. Especially in crops such as hay and straw this ensures a huge increase of output.
As soon as the bale has a core formed, the hydraulic CPS mechanism is engaged and due to the well designed geometry of the tensioning device for the belts, a highly consistent bale density is ensured thanks to the increasing pressure exerted by the belts. Thus, correct bale formation is ensured since baling density remains constant even up to the maximum diameter. The hard outer layer eliminates any loss of quality due to weathering and rain being absorbed.
Four endless belts – Endless trustThe four belts of the baler are constructed from five cord plies, alternated with rubber intermediate layers with strongly staggering connections of the layers. Result: a supple yet outstandingly strong belt that hardly stretches and contains no joiners. All in all: endless baling without replacement or repair.
Variable bales – Easy to controlBaling density can be read from a clearly visible pressure gauge. Bale density can be controlled manually by means of a control block on the machine. In addition, the operator always has a clear view of the bale diameter. A light indicates whether or not the tail gate is locked.
Balercontrol EAs soon as the pre-set bale diameter has been reached, the BCE sends a signal to the operator after which tying (net, Combi or twine) is started either automatically or manually. BCE also shows the number of bales per day as well as the total number of bales.
Easy manual adjustmentThe settings for bale size, bale density and net length are easily adjusted on the machine. Clear visible indicators show the density and the increasing bale size. A light indicates whether the tailgate is locked or not.
As standard, the Lely Welger RP 415 model comes with:- 2.25 m free running pick-up.
• 500 mm diameter feed rotor.
• Varionet net tying system.
• Balercontrol E.
• Automatic chain lubrication.
• Pick-up wheels.
ADS – Extra power for heavy cropsTo be able to convey additional power to the belts, the RP 415 models can be fitted with the ADS (Additional Drive System) feature. The additional drive make the baler more suited to silage operations.
New pick-up for modern balerThe 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-upDue 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 tinesThe 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 throughputDue 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-freeSince 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 rollerThe 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.
Options:- Castor wheels for pick-up.
• ADS – Additional Drive System.
• Vario twine tying system.
• Variotwine and Varionet Combi tying.
• Drive shaft with shear bolt.
• Drive shaft with cam clutch.
• Bale discharge ramp.
