A Claas Orbis 900 is a forage header—a specialized cutting and gathering attachment designed for harvesting chopped forage crops, particularly corn, in one pass. Claas is a leading European manufacturer of agricultural machinery, known for building precision harvesting equipment used across grain, forage, and biomass production worldwide.
This 2009 example is equipped with a rotary corn head configuration featuring a 30 foot working width, enabling efficient coverage across wide crop rows. The header incorporates Autocontour technology, which maintains consistent cutting height by automatically following ground contours—a feature that improves feed quality and reduces crop loss. Power transmission is managed through a 2-speed header drive gearbox, allowing the operator to adjust cutting and gathering speed according to crop conditions and forward speed. The machine uses a coupler driveline system with threaded hydraulic couplers, which provides a standardized, reliable connection to the harvester's PTO and hydraulic supply.
The unit is located in Wisconsin, USA, and is offered in used condition at $50,940.
