          asked Kempston Agri
        
        
          what type of technology is currently
        
        
          availableonClaas.
        
        
          According to Nekita Herman (Dealer Devel-
        
        
          opment and Marketing co-ordinator, Kemp-
        
        
          stonAgri), Claas Power Systems (CPS) brings
        
        
          together top quality components to create
        
        
          a drive system that sets new standards and
        
        
          always delivers maximum power which is
        
        
          derived fromClaas.
        
        
          “The FPT and DPS engines in our tractors
        
        
          range from 50 kW to 306 kW. The Arion 650
        
        
          (129 kW) and Axion 900 (up to 306 kW) is
        
        
          equipped with a Vistronic fan that reduces
        
        
          engine noise and fuel consumption. The
        
        
          Axion is fitted with a Cmatic transmission
        
        
          which always chooses the right engine speed
        
        
          andgear ratio for thebest fuel consumption,”
        
        
          Herman said.
        
        
          The Axion and Arion have a long wheelbase, and good weight
        
        
          distribution to handle all sorts of attachments. All Claas tractors are
        
        
          equippedwith fourwheel drive and there is theoptionof Telematics
        
        
          for data collecting, operating time analysis and remotemonitoring.
        
        
          What can be expected in the future?
        
        
          “Claas is taking the future very seriously, with the focus on data
        
        
          management; machine to machine communication and cultivation
