For a long time I published nothing so little time to dust off this topic: D

The model on which I worked for 12 months is harvester Claas Jaguar 900. In a nutshell, the machine is designed to collect and chop corn. Chopped material goes onto the trailer and then to the silo where it gets feed for cows :D

After the model I wanted to build another Holmer complex machine. Long wondered about the choice but in the end I decided to build Claas Jaguar 980. As it turned out it was impossible to model its shape nicely so I changed it to a model 900

Drive and steering:

The model is powered by a four-wheel-PF XL motor. Of course, in the middle there are three differentials, one for each axis and between axes. Ratio is about 1: 9. XL engine copes remarkably well with the whole model, even with the attachment. I had to use tricks Unimog tires Tyre Power Puller after raising camper at almost 80% of the weight rests on the front axle. Unfortunately, I do not know the weight so I do not know how much it weighs a model, but I estimate about 4,5-5kg. Twisting model is done using controlled rear axle which is equipped with a transverse cradle like a real machine. The suspension works very well and the model overcomes obstacles easily height of 1.5 to 2 studs.

Mechanisms:

The whole model has nine motors, apart from the functions used to drive, the lifting attachment, driving the camper, cut side units, controlling the of the outlet pipe in two directions. At first it seemed to me that to fit it all going to be easy but with each engine was worse. The biggest problem that created the IR receivers are located in the rear of the machine. Lifting attachment is via the engine medium and two linear actuators. For the operation of the outlet pipe also responsible two medium motors. The mechanism driving the starter motor turn comes from Holmer and is adapted to the amount of space in forage harvester. In simple. The worm moving medium that drives the z24 and switch. This is blocked on one side.

just one comment - I do not remember that claas uses portal axles on any harvester, so I would prefer that you use those parts for front axle

:wink:

You're right, but only half. In fact, Claas use portal axles because the reduction in the drive is located in the hub (planetary hub reduction) or inside the axle. Bricks at this scale does not allow such a solution. :)
