Fendt set to launch new machinery at LAMMA

The Fendt stand will include the new 920C Former, the Gen 1 600 Vario, and a further selection of tractors including the Gen7 728 Vario. 

Another LAMMA first will be the chance to see Fendt’s Corus 5275C straw walker which features unique ParaLevel technology.

“LAMMA is a centrepiece of agricultural machinery in the UK and is the perfect opportunity for Fendt to show the new tractors and machinery that is available," said Fendt’s Ed Dennett.

"Our stand demonstrates the strength in depth we have, and we welcome all visitors who want to talk about their machinery needs with our specialists.”  

The top model Fendt 620 Profi+ offers 209hp from its 4-cylinder, 5-litre AGCO Power CORE50 engine that also features a DynamicPerformance system which can provide an additional 15hp regardless of forward speed.

“The 600 Vario spans a gap in traditional tractor ranges," added Mr Dennett. 

"It is a superb all-rounder that, despite having a compact shape, can be used for towing heavy loads, carrying front tanks or operating heavy mounted implements. 

"It can reach a top speed of 50 km/h at 1,250 rpm and offers 950 Nm from 1,200 rpm to 1,600 rpm. It is also very manoeuvrable, providing a turning circle of just 10.2 metres." 

Fendt’s C-Series range of straw walkers includes two 6-cylinder engines from AGCO Power. With a cubic capacity of 7.4 l (5275 C) and 8.4 l (6335 C), they deliver a maximum output of 306 hp (5275 C) and 360 hp (6335 C) respectively.

The 5275C model at LAMMA features ParaLevel, a unique function that stabilises the combine on undulating and hilly land. Based on a parallelogram, it can compensate for slopes of up to 20%. This means the combine can operate at maximum output whilst the threshing unit, separating and cleaning systems remain horizontal.

The Former rake and Rotana MY25 baler are new to Fendt’s expanding grassland machinery range. The two-rotor Former features six models with working widths from 6.9 to 10 metres that include SteerGuard, a patented technology which improves manoeuvrability, and a double swing arm on the rotor suspension which have the option of being coupled to ISOBUS for greater connectivity, memory functions and section control.

The Rotana combi round balers have been updated and will soon be available with moisture analysis or a weighing function.  Profi models also include a link to Fendt’s Tractor Implement Management System (TIM) to automatically stop after the binding process and also automatically eject the bale.

“The diversity of Fendt’s range reflects the diversity of farming machinery needed in the UK. From the 600 Vario, that will be appealing to a broad range of farms, to our grassland and harvesting machinery, we hope visitors to LAMMA will have plenty to discuss with our product specialists,” added Mr Dennett.
