KUHN VB 7100 first AEF Certified Section Controlled balers

• KUHN VB 7100 balers are the first globally with AEF Certified Section Control featuring GPS automated pick-up for improved efficiency. 

• Advanced automation functions include Task Controller Section Control, Task Controller basic and geo-based for precise task recording and mapping.

• The system enhances operator comfort, reduces machine wear, and optimizes tractor-baler performance.

• Data management capabilities simplify farm operations and improve profitability through accurate yield and bale information.

• Compatibility with tractors is ensured via the AEF ISOBUS database for seamless communication.

KUHN VB 7100 balers are the first AEF Certified Section Controlled balers in the world with a GPS automated pick-up. They are also the first round balers with an AEF Certified Task Controller geo-based function. These are two of many KUHN Baler Automation solutions that increase the profitability of the farmer's baling operations, while enhancing bale quality and operator convenience.

AEF Certified Task Controller Section Control (TC-SC)

The TC-SC function allows VB 7100 series balers to be equipped with a GPS automated pick-up. The baler and tractor control the pick-up, independent of other work passes or tasks. The pick-up is only down when there is crop left for baling and is automatically raised when turning onto the headland or if an already worked area is passed again. This improves the operators’ comfort throughout the long working day and reduces machine wear.

AEF Certified Task Controller basic (TC-BAS) and geo-based (TC-GEO)

Using Task Controller basic and geo-based the tasks are recorded, documented and mapped with all related information, such as number of bales, customer and field information, yield and bale weight. In this way, an accurate report is automatically created for the company’s management.

Other functionalities of KUHN Baler Automation:

• AEF Certified Tractor Implement Management (TIM): The VB 7100 baler controls the tractor and the entire baling cycle is automated.

• AEF Certified Auxiliary Control (AUX-N): The baler can be controlled directly via the CCI A3 joystick with its softkeys.

In conclusion, the main advantages of this system are:

• Improved ergonomics and operator comfort

• Maximum performance of the tractor / baler combination

• Less wear and tear on the machine

• Simplified and optimised tasks and customer management

• More data and more accurate knowledge of the yield per field

• Easy data transfer

• Easier farm management

• Increased business profitability

Compatibility check in AEF ISOBUS database

The AEF ISOBUS database provides machine information on certified ISOBUS products. Here you can check whether the tractor is compatible with KUHN Baler Automation functionalities, to ensure good communication between tractor and implement.
