Everything the way you want it.

When we develop a new combine harvester, we always include the cab concept in our design considerations. We are supported in this by combine harvester operators all over the world. Together with them, we take the important decisions relating to the comfort and control aspects of our machines. Proven approaches are continued, good solutions are improved, new ideas are put to the test.

We are certain that you will welcome the innovations which we have introduced in the TRION as a result of this process: the air conditioning concept with an all-new airflow system, the large storage compartments, the actively cooled 30 l cool box for your drinks or the bright, high-resolution CEBIS display. Of course, you will also find much that is familiar. The incomparable CLAAS comfort, for example, or the intelligent control concept which gives you easy access to all machine functions.

CEBIS operates intuitively.

Operation is intuitive and possible without previous knowledge. This means that even new operators are able to use the TRION in a short time. CEBIS plays a decisive role in this. The system is an information supplier, performance optimiser and problem solver all rolled into one.

CEBIS offers immediate assistance.

Stored in CEBIS is a library of measures – based on the experience of countless CLAAS combine harvester operators – for resolving various problem scenarios. They consider all the parameters which could contribute to solving the problem. They therefore represent a comprehensive resource which supports you in making full use of the installed capacity of the machine.

CEBIS simplifies the menu.

Beginner, normal or expert: you define your user type and CEBIS adjusts the menu system to your level of experience. This ensures that new operators are not overwhelmed by complex menus. The operator assistance system is also integrated in CEBIS. You operate CEMOS DIALOG and CEMOS AUTOMATIC via the user-friendly touchscreen. Using a slider, you program the system's automatic functions with the strategies you wish them to follow.

LED lighting packages turn night into day.

• The long-range work light provides illumination over a particularly long distance.
• The front attachment is illuminated as brightly as the front area, sides and stubble.
• All the important machine components are equipped with maintenance lighting.

In CEMOS AUTOMATIC you have a self-learning, modular operator assistance system. Choose from the set of available functions the ones that are most cost-effective for your farm.

CRUISE PILOT and AUTO SLOPE, for example, provide economical access to automation. With these functions, as well as benefiting from intelligent forward travel control, your TRION is able to adjust the fan speed automatically. This allows the grain cleaning system to operate without losses in undulating terrain.

Or you can choose the full version of CEMOS AUTOMATIC and let the machine optimise its threshing unit and primary separation autonomously. You benefit from high throughput, clean grain and reduced fuel consumption.

Keep the number of passes to a minimum.

Steering systems are an essential tool in your everyday work. The TRION can be equipped with three automatic steering systems, which you can choose between on the basis of the task in question: the digital AUTO PILOT, the satellite-based GPS PILOT CEMIS 1200 and the electro-optical LASER PILOT, which we can also equip with the FIELD SCANNER for you as an option.

Precision for every task.

• The GPS PILOT steers precisely and can be controlled intuitively via CEMIS 1200.
• The LASER PILOT with FIELD SCANNER offers you three different steering modes.
• The AUTO PILOT helps you work precisely in maize.
• With dynamic steering you can turn quickly and easily at the end of the field.

Digitalisation puts your farm ahead.

• With TELEMATICS you transmit data from the machine straight to the cloud.
• With FLEET VIEW you coordinate your transport teams with a degree of precision measured in seconds.
• With CEMIS 1200 you create and manage all jobs on the spot in the machine.
• DataConnect allows you to process the data from your machines, regardless of manufacturer.
• With Remote Service you simplify maintenance and service activities.

The 450 mm accelerator drum in the APS WALKER threshing unit starts an efficient threshing process which allows you to achieve extremely high throughputs. It accelerates the crop flow significantly, from 3 m/s to 20 m/s.

Pre-acceleration of the crop is the start of a series of effective processes. The crop is loosened and separated. The crop flow runs more evenly and up to 33% faster. As a result of the high centrifugal force, significantly more grains are separated across all concave areas. On its own, the preconcave - situated immediately below the accelerator drum - separates up to 30% of the grains, thereby reducing the load on the main concave to a significant degree.

You are therefore already at a decisive advantage before the crop has even reached the threshing drum. This ultimately means that you benefit from an increase in performance of up to 20% with no rise in fuel consumption.

Effective straw walker technology.

Every grain counts. The APS threshing system works so efficiently that only some 10% of the grains run through the residual grain separation process in the TRION. The even flow of the straw onto the open-bottomed straw walkers combined with a high gradient angle ensures that practically all the residual grain is separated from the straw. This process is unaffected by the difficulty of the harvesting conditions or whether you are threshing wet or dry straw.

Residual grain separation occurs over a total length of 4,400 mm across four straw walker steps. The TRION 600 series is equipped with six straw walkers while the TRION 500 series has five. Centre and side extensions are available. Even large volumes of straw are transported quickly and easily.

MSS loosens the straw.

Even under difficult conditions, MSS ensures effective residual grain separation. In wet straw or green growth, for example, thorough fluffing of the straw mass is critical for high separation efficiency. This is why all TRION straw walker machines are equipped with the MULTIFINGER SEPARATION SYSTEM (MSS). This uses a drum with controlled tines positioned above the straw walkers to loosen the crop.

MSS controls the crop flow actively.

Multiple controlled tines reach into the mat of straw from above and fluff the straw. This thins the straw mat, allowing the residual grains to be separated at an early stage. As a result, the available length of the straw walkers is used more effectively, while the structure and quality of your straw is optimised. You can adjust the intensity of the tine action in accordance with changing harvest conditions.

Intensive cleaning.

Clean grain is worth real money. The JET STREAM cleaning system with its hydraulic fan speed variator and high-performance returns is able to call on high performance reserves in all crop types. A dual-ventilated step enables intensive pre-cleaning.

JET STREAM is controlled conveniently from the cab. You no longer have to adjust anything manually. As an option, you can put the JET STREAM cleaning function under the fully automatic control of CEMOS AUTO CLEANING.

Reliable collection.

Once the threshing unit, secondary separation and cleaning systems have done their work, the cleaned grain is collected in the automatically expanding grain tank. Its capacity of up to 12,000 litres is matched to the high throughput of the TRION.

You can unload the grain tank at rates up to 130 l/s. The concentrated stream makes reliable filling of the transfer vehicles easier. The automatic cover flap at the end of the grain tank unloading tube ensures that there are no run-on losses during the unloading process.

Outstanding straw management.

A user-friendly straw chopper drive, a power spreader for large working widths and automatic discharge direction adjustment – these are the three essential elements of an effective straw management system.

Three straw chopper drives.

Two straw chopper drives with a manually adjustable chopper speed are available. The Basic variant operates at a constant speed while the Comfort variant allows you to choose between two speeds by repositioning the drive belt. There is also Comfort Plus, for which the speed adjustment is performed directly by means of a manual clutch without any repositioning of the drive belt. This option comes into its own when you have to work frequently in changing crop types. During swathing, a neutral setting, which is provided for all three straw chopper drives, saves fuel and reduces wear.

Deflector spreader up to 7.70 m working width.

From the straw walkers, the straw moves directly to the chopper, whose intensity you can adjust in accordance with the operating conditions. STANDARD CUT and SPECIAL CUT, respectively equipped with up to 64 and up to 88 knives sharpened on both sides, and a mechanically adjustable static knife provide the appropriate cutting action. You can adjust the deflector spreaders without tools. The spreading width and direction can be adjusted manually or hydraulically via CEBIS.

Precise power spreader.

The power spreader from CLAAS is synonymous with precise straw spreading – even with high volumes of straw, strong crosswinds or sloping terrain. Comprising two spreading rotors turning in opposite directions at a constant speed, it takes both the chopped material and the chaff straight from the cleaning section, accelerates it further and spreads it evenly across the entire working width.

Convenient, with no tools required.

The TRION saves you a lot of time when changing to a different crop type. The entire changeover process is convenient and easy without even requiring any tools to adjust the speed of the various assemblies. 63% of the threshing concave area can be replaced in a single movement.

Adjust feeder housing.

You can adjust the height of the feed roller without using tools. A sticker indicates the appropriate position.

Convert threshing unit.

You can change the preconcave segments easily through the stone trap. The threshing concave segment accounts for 63% of the threshing concave and is easily pulled out to the side. With the grain harvest completed, the TRION is now ready for the maize.

Change speeds.

You select the speed ranges of the threshing drum speed reduction gearbox manually by means of a hydraulic valve. You have a choice of two ranges which are clearly indicated on the actual switchover valve.

Modify straw management.

The speeds of the power spreader and straw chopper can be adjusted easily and conveniently. In the case of the straw chopper, you do not even need any tools. It can be equipped ex factory with universal knives which are suitable for both grain and maize.

You can adjust the speed of the chaff spreader in line with your specific requirements. The spreader plates can be adjusted easily to provide the required spreading distance. The static knife and chopping floor can also be adjusted without tools. Convenient access to the grain tank means that you can also make short work of adjusting the grain tank cover plates in line with the job in hand.

Harvesting grass seed.

As grass seeds and small seeds are very light, it is important to adjust the fan speed accordingly. The two-stage drive has two speed ranges which you can engage by using quick-release clamps and repositioning the drive belt. An emptying aid is available to prevent bridging in the grain tank. This ensures trouble-free unloading of these light crops.

Cleaning the machine.

Before harvesting seed, or at the end of the season, you should clean the entire machine. The TRION assists you in this by providing unrestricted access to all components. The threshing unit can be reached through large maintenance openings on both sides of the machine. Sufficient space to perform cleaning tasks is also provided around the sieve pan, straw walkers and grain tank.
