Round baling systems require the machine to stop briefly while the bale is wrapped or tied. However, even in this respect, the VARIANT offers a crucial benefit with its speed and efficiency. The process starts automatically once the desired bale diameter has been reached. The high belt speed of 3 m/s ensures an extremely fast tying cycle, making it possible to continue baling right away without wasting any time.
Developed and patented by CLAAS: the new intake plate has two operating positions, for even more reliable bale wrapping. During the baling phase, the plate is open, preventing crop material buildup. Then, during the wrapping phase, the plate closes, for precise positioning of the net or twine. It all adds up to a highly reliable wrapping system – and very satisfied machine operators.
Wrapping starts fully automatically, for both net and dual-twine wrapping. The VARIANT's storage compartment offers plenty of space for your wrapping materials. You can stow two rolls of net, or up to ten twine rolls, as you prefer.
The VARIANT delivers outstanding wrapping and tying performance, with either net or dual twine. Following the fully automatic start, the easily adjustable, precisely operating wrapping system sets about producing firm bales with excellent shape retention – and all at record speed, thanks to the 3-m/s bale rotation.

The diameter of the net roll decreases with each bale. Yet the net has to be kept at a constant tension, for edge-to-edge coverage of the wrapped bale. To meet this requirement, the net roll brake force is adjusted by a special net wrap linkage and lateral spirals. The result is firm bales that will hold their shape and are ideally prepared for further processing.
For hay, straw or silage, the XW (extra-wide) net wrapping system, available as optional equipment, is your guarantee of perfectly formed bales that will hold their shape. The spiral rollers used in the VARIANT provide a net overlap at the bale edges. This means the bales are ideally protected for road transport and storage. The extra-wide ROLLATEX PRO XW 1.3-m net roll makes an ideal wrapping material.
To enable you to keep an eye on the wrapping operation, and make sure things are happening where and when they should, the wrapping system remains clearly visible at all times, as is usual with CLAAS balers. The wide-opening inspection cover allows easy cleaning and servicing.
Optimum wrapping strength and reliability: ORIGINAL CLAAS BALETEX twine and CLAAS ROLLATEX PRO net for full edge coverage. The CLAAS Covered XW wrapping system uses 1.3-m-wide ROLLATEX PRO XW net.
