Working on the pit for the first time in Ireland will be the new Torion 1812 wheel loader which was launched at last year's Agritechnica.
New features on the Jaguar 970 and the more powerful top-of-the-range Jaguar 980 include a continuously variable drive.
The new four-rotor Volto 55 replaces the Volto 52 and includes innovations such as the Permalink drive and the Max Spread crop flow concept, previously only available on larger models in the range.
Claas will have five new additions from their extensive green harvest, tractor and material handling ranges on display and working at this year’s FTMTA Grassland & Muck event. These will include the Jaguar 970 forage harvester, the Torion 1812 articulated-loader, the Volto 55 tedder, an Axion 900 and Arion 600. New features on the Jaguar 970 and the more powerful top-of-the-range Jaguar 980 include a continuously variable drive. This uses a combination of a mechanical and hydraulic drive to provide high-power transmission at a constant speed. This provides a more powerful and consistent drive to attachments such as the direct disc or maize headers.
First working display of Torion 1812 articulated loader
On display for the first time in Ireland will be the new Torion 1812 wheel loader, which will be showing off its capabilities on the pit. Powered by a 195hp Leibherr 4-cylinder engine, the Torion 1812 has a tipping load capacity of 11 tonnes and an operating weight of 18.7 tonnes. A particular feature of the TORION is its massive torque of 1215Nm, which comes in at just 1,100rpm. Drive is through a split-power CVT CMATIC transmission, again another first for a machine of this type.

Another unique feature is the TORION’s extremely low running cost. In addition to its minimal fuel consumption and high productivity, the engine only needs servicing every 2,000 hours. The transmission needs to be checked at 3,000 hours and serviced at 6,000 hours which Claas claim is far longer than with any other competing machine.
