The mobile pellet harvester and stationary mill

In presenting the Premos 5000 (Kalverkamp system), KRONE is once again making a powerful statement of its innovative performance: The Premos is at the same time a mobile pellet harvester and a stationary pelleting press which harnesses the huge potential of straw and other crop stalks which are abundantly available in the fields around the world, and presses it into top-quality, structural pellets. These make ideal bedding, animal feed and fuel.

Pelleting on the move

• Production of marketable structural pellets directly in the field
• Up to 5,000 kg throughputs per hour
• Water and oil dispenser for optimum results
• On-board cooling keeps pellet quality high

The Premos 5000 is the first pelleting press which picks up stalk crops such as straw, hay or lucerne directly inthe field and compresses them into structural pellets. The finished product is then overloaded into a chaser bin.

Pelleting on the farm

• The first mobile pellet press that also operates as a stationary pellet mill
• Bale shredder, integral feed table, automatic twine removal
• Fold-up feed table for convenient changeover into transport position

When used as a stationary pelleting press, the Premos can pelletise stalk-type crops all year round. The bale is removed from storage and fed into the machine via a system of shredding rollers. To convert Premos into a stationary mill, remove the pick-up and replace this by the bale shredder which makes an integral part of the machine.

High-fibre pellets and their use in agriculture

• „„Straw pellets with high bulk density of up to 700 kg/m³ (density greatly dependent on crop)
• „„Excellent absorption qualities for ideal bedding
• „„Adds structure to the ration
• „„Excellent toys for pigs
• „„Enormous potential as a renewable energy source
• High gas yield in the biogas plant due to digestion of the straw during pelleting

The KRONE Premos 5000 produces structural pellets which differ significantly from DIN pellets in terms of their composition. With a diameter of 16 mm, the structural pellets produces from unchopped crops are considerably larger. Rich in fibre, pellets add structure to the ration and offer good absorption qualities as bedding. The structural pellets also show their astrengths in the biogas plant. No floating layers and digestion during the pelleting process ensure a significantly higher gas yield and a smooth-running plant.

Operation

• Easy use and easy operation via terminal
• DS 500 – Standard operator terminal with 5.7" colour display
• CCI 800 – User-friendly operating terminal with 8" touch display
• CCI 1200 – User-friendy operating terminal with 12"  touch display

Premos is conveniently operated from a number of easy-use operator terminals. From here, operators check machine functions and enter settings.
