17th July 2025
Claas has unveiled a new addition to its 2026 product lineup: the Cerex round baler. The company has also announced a series of updates and the launch of new models across its combine harvester, baler, mower, and telescopic handler ranges.
Lexion users will have the option of a new addition to the range – the Lexion 8500, which rounds off the lower end of the Lexion 8000 series. Powered by a 549hp MAN engine, it has a 13,500- or 15,000-litre tank option and features the APS Synflow Hybrid threshing system.
In addition, the Lexion 8700 and 8600 now come with more powerful 646 and 598hp engines and larger grain tanks. All models now also come with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a DAB+ radio and Bluetooth.
The Trion 760 is a new addition at the top of the Trion range, which is powered by a 507hp engine and has a 13,500-litre tank with the Aps Twin Hybrid threshing system. Other updates also include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a DAB+ radio and Bluetooth.
The Scorpion 848 is a new addition to the Scorpion range, which has a maximum load capacity of 4,800kg and a lift height of up to 8.0 metres. It is powered by a 156hp engine driving through a Varipower Plus transmission.
The Cerex 700 is a completely new high-capacity variable round baler that comes in above the Variant. Bale diameter is from 0.90 to 1.60m (Cerex 760RC) or 1.83m (Cerex 780RC) and can achieve bale densities over 135kg/m³ with baling rates of up to 60 bales an hour.
All Variant 500 series balers will now come as standard with the new Claas Multiflow HD pick-up. It features five tine bars, is 2.1m wide and includes a new cam track that requires 20% less drive and has heavy-duty plastic strippers. Pick-up speed is 146 rpm for up to 20% more performance.
The Rollant 630RC is a new addition that comes in above the Rollant 520. It also features the new Multiflow HD pick-up with either a 17-knife or 25-knife chopping system. It features a heavy-duty reinforced chain drive and 55mm thick drive shafts on the rotors subject to the heaviest load, in addition to the MPS II pressure system.
The Disco Contour range has been completely renewed and now comes with the option of either tine or roller conditioners and features grey protective covers. A new option is counterweights for a more even load on the tractors’ rear wheels, especially when using smaller tractors and when working on slopes.
The Disco 1100 C/RC Business has a maximum working width of 10.70m, has load sensing and is ISOBUS controlled. It features reinforced telescopic arms with independent adjustment, and with RC versions, there is the option of either a tine or roller conditioner driven through a scissor gearbox.
