Swadro S | TS

The KRONE Swadro S and TS line-up of rotary rakes offers the largest choice of side delivery rakes in the market. Our programme comprises an unmatched number of models and variants – from the single-rotor rakes for non-contiguous fields all the way up to the Swadro TS 970, the world’s most unique three-rotor rake for maximum productivity and harvester capacities.

• „ 3D contouring in any direction
• „ Best possible 3D contouring for all tines
• „ Clean forage, no losses

• Hermetically sealed and maintenance-free rotor gearboxes
• Fuel-efficient gear ratio
• Permanently fluid greased

The Swadro rotor gearbox is powerful and yet frugal in terms of tractor power. Thanks to its large gear ratio, Swadro requires only low pto speeds at minimum wear. Compared to other swathing systems, Swadro rotary rakes stand out for low input power and great fuel economy.

• Maintenance-free
• Special Bainite hardness
• Dry-running and steep cam track with small diameter

• Full driveline protection
• Neighbouring discs will not collide
• Wear-free
• Quick replacement of the roll pins, lowest costs

• Clean forage thanks to the Lift Effect
• High work rates and no fragmentation
• Improved forage quality
• Reduced rake losses

All current KRONE Swadro models have the KRONE Lift Tines as standard specification. Kinked in two positions, these tines offer significant benefits that have been verified in KRONE field tests and a DLG Focus Test.

• Gauge wheels on high flotation tyres run very close to the tines
• The largest wheelbase on the market
• Adjuster changes the rotor angle across the direction of travel for optimum swaths and loss-free rakes.
• Caster steer wheels at front and rear (option) protect the sward

The wheels under the KRONE Swadro rotors never lose contact with the ground, not even the roughest terrain. The largest possible contact area and pivoting range in combination with suitable tyres ensures no blade is left on the sward and the sward is not damaged. Clean and intact swards are the cornerstone for top quality forage also from the next cut.

• Mounted in the three-point linkage and offering 3.80 m to 4.60 m working widths
• nique caster-steered headstock with patented lower link couplers offers two attachment options
• A level of operator comfort and setup accuracy that is second-to-none

The Swadro S single-rotor rakes with 3.80 m, 4.20 m and 4.60 m working widths stand out for great longevity and reliability but also in terms of operator comfort and convenient setup. Their remarkable level of reliability and longevity is attributed to their durable drive components that are sourced from the KRONE high-output rakes. Also, the compact Swadro S build offers the best possible view of the rotors and the swath whilst the precise and convenient setting options make for easiest use and optimum results.

• Great agility and best tracking thanks to the tracking mechanism and balancing arm
• Mechanical or hydraulic dampers provide powerful and yet gentle alignment centrally behind the tractor
• The KRONE Jet Effect controls the tines during life-out and touch-down
• Standard four-wheel running gear for treading softly on big flotation tyres
• Leading gauge wheel is an option for perfect contour following in uneven terrain

The Swadro single-rotor rakes deliver outstanding results. The damper struts, the balancing arm and the pull-type configuration of the rotors combine and interact for optimum castering. The wheels are clad with big flotation tyres and run in close vicinity to the tines for accurate contour following. This is the formula for raking up every single blade of grass without damaging the turf.

• Down-to-the millimetre rotor height settings and accurate scales
• Convenient curtain fold-up mechnism takes out the hard work
• Foldable tine arms feature wear-free and gapless joints

The Swadro S single-rotor rakes stand out for ease of operation. For example, work height and swath width are changed on the left side of the rake or even from the cab as an option. The tine arms are foldable and need not removing and storing into transport position so changeovers from field to road are fast and easy.

• Wide working width
• Low power input
• Parallel-linkage controlled drawbar
• Tandem axle with 18″ tyres as standard

With the trailed Swadro S 460 DB single-rotor rake
from KRONE,
big things can be achieved with
small tractors. Thanks to the special shape of
the attachment to the tractor and the rotor
chassis, which also serves as a transport chassis,
there is only a very low drawbar load when
the machine is lifted, minimising the load on
the front axle. This means that even small and
light tractors can be integrated effectively
into the harvesting process.

• A controlled material flow through the machine for best rakes
• Boosted outputs from the forage wagon, baler or forager
• No roping for maximum harvester performance

­The KRONE Easy-Line increases rotor rpm on the leading units by about 10% compared with the rear units, so the leading rotors present the material in a wider mat to the ones at the rear which rake it into fluffy and boxy swaths. The Easy Line driveline ensures the material doesn’t drop back on the ground once it has been picked up.

• Single and double swathing
• Right-hand swath presentation
• Variable work width
• Hydraulic crop deflector adjustment
• 13 tine arms per rotor

Featuring as many as 13 tines, this KRONE 710/26 T twin-rotor side delivery rake not only offers excellent value for money but also the cleanest rakes. Swadro 710/26 T forms single and double swaths as well as two narrow swaths side by side.

• Flexible swathing – single swaths, double swaths and twin swaths
• The sequence controlled rotors lift clear off the ground for stress-free headland turns
• Individual rotor lift-out as an option for perfect rakes in corners
• Extremely compact in transport thanks to a unique frame design

The trailed KRONE Swadro TS side-delivery rakes work at widths between 6.20 m (20'4") and 7.40 m (24'3") presenting the crop in single and double swaths. The Twin version forms twin swaths as standard specification. As a result, the machine covers work widths between 6.92 m (22'8") and 8.20 m (26'11").

• 9.70 m (31'10") work width for highest work rates
• Electric work height control and height indicator
• Hydraulic caster control for optimum road stability

Raking nearly 20 metres into one double windrow, the KRONE Swadro TS 970 is the ideal match for a high-capacity precision-chop forage harvester. Offering stunning work rates of up to 10 ha/h, this machine is the performance booster in your harvest chain. A wide wheel base and Ackermann steering give this high-capacity rake an enormous agility and very easy shunting.
