Only CLAAS offers this outstanding high performance patented system.
The decisive competitive edge of CLAAS appears well before the
threshing drum. 


Strong acceleration of the crop flow from 3 m/s to 20 m/s triggers a chain of
extremely efficient processes:

The unique APS threshing system.

  • The pre-accelerator separates the crop better
  • The crop flow is particularly even and up to 33% faster
  • Higher centrifugal forces separate considerably more grain
  • Up to 30% of all grains are already sorted in the pre-separation concave directly below the accelerator significantly reducing the load on the main concave
  • Thus there is a net performance increase of up to 20% with no rise in fuel consumption.

Long threshing channel.

In the CLAAS APS threshing system, we've succeeded in wrapping the main concave much farther around the threshing drum than in conventional machines. No other threshing mechanism offers an angle of wrap of 151°. You benefit from gentle but thorough threshing with a large concave clearance and low drum speed with reduced fuel consumption.

The MULTICROP concave.

The pre-separation concave is designed as a MULTICROP concave so it can handle all types of crops. The three concave segments can be changed rapidly, minimising changeover times between crops and maximising efficiency and profitability.

Optimal grain quality is purely a matter of the right settings.

The APS system is equipped with multistage adapters for optimal disawning. With the intensive threshing component and the disawner plates, which can be engaged in just seconds via a lever on the feeder housing, APS ensures outstanding grain quality.

Synchronised function.

The accelerator, threshing drum and impeller are driven by a central variator. Each change in drum speed causes a corresponding adjustment of the accelerator and impeller.

The result is protective crop handling with even crop flow throughout.
