Roll stabilisation with fully automatic hydraulic wheel load and slope compensation Hydraulic chassis with slope compensation 2 swing axles with 4 stabilisation cylinders The ROPA Panther 2S has an innovative chassis concept with 2 floating axles in combination with 4 stabilising cylinders. Compared to conventional chassis of 2-axle beet harvesters this reduces the sway of machine by 50 per cent. The reason for the improvement is the hydraulic connection of the stabilising cylinders at the front and rear axles on one side, so unevenness at one wheel at a different level only affects the frame...

First class driver's seat Ergonomic and comfortable The panoramic cabin is designed for driver's convenience and comfort and creates a generous sense of space. The pleasant, attractive and easy-care interior of the new cabin guarantees the most comfortable operation. There are generously dimensioned shelves, storage compartments and plenty of space around the driver. Standard equipment of the Panther 2S includes a ROPA Evolution Grammer comfort seat with heating and active ventilation, a cool box under the comfortable passenger seat as well as a DAB+ radio with hands-free set. Extremely powerful...

Terminals and operation The Panther 2S has two 12.1 inch operating terminals with high pixel density resulting in even sharper resolution. Operation at the terminal with interactive buttons highlighted by the clear colour composition on the modern flat design is even more intuitive and has the same logic as tablets and smartphones. Intentionally used contrasts improve legibility and usability. The Panther 2S can be fully operated via the two rotary switches R-Direct and R-Select as an alternative to the touchscreen. Lighting menu Online video instructions High resolution video display In addition...

R-Connect online portal R-Connect telematics module and remote diagnostics as standard equipment R-Connect in the myROPA portal is a perfect tool for drivers and schedulers for online order processing and for optimisation of machines and fleets. Now, the scheduler can be present virtually "live" on the machine with the help of online facilities. A diesel supplier, for example, can also be granted access to the current location of the machine and the fuel level as well as AdBlue level, if provided. The ROPA R-Connect online portal can be opened via a web browser on any device (PC, tablet, smartphone)....

R-Trim and R-Contour Automatic topper height adjustment and ground contour sensor system for better quality of the harvested beets combined with a significant ease of operation Both systems adapt their working depth to the changing conditions in the beet crop throughout the field. The automatic systems react to different crown heights or to ground unevenness crosswise to the direction of travel. The measuring system on the scalper has been extended by an additional measuring system with ultrasonic sensors to record the ground contour directly at the beet rows. A powerful onboard computer on the...

Topper ROPA integral topper - standard model for normal harvesting conditions ROPA all-round topper Integral leaf-layer or leaf ejector Also available with combined shaft Leaves from the beet crowns are mulched with robust topper knives and spread between the rows. Therefore, beet leaves with all their nutrients are evenly delivered to the soil, the optimal basis for further soil cultivation as green waste is quickly converted to humus. The integral defoliator is available with depth-control wheels and manually foldable leaf sensor or without depth-control wheels with a hydraulically foldable...

RR lifting unit RR lifting unit with automatic share depth adjustment of the individual rows and hydraulic stone protection The RR lifting unit is equipped with counter-rotating oscillating shares, seven lifting rollers, hard welded as standard with extremely abrasion-resistant, carbide containing hard-coated wire "Ropa Screwtec", completely maintenance-free hydraulic stone protection and single-row adjustment of the share depth. Simple and fast exchange of the lifting rollers for varying conditions (different diameters, outfeed, infeed, etc.) The 850 mm large depth-control wheels combined with...

Panther 2S XL Panther 2S XL - efficiency and power The ROPA Panther 2S equipped with 8- or 9-row wide harvesting units of the RR-XL series is capable of covering significantly larger areas at reduced harvesting speed. Advantages of this version are reduced fuel consumption, lower fixed costs and an improved topping quality. With the wide PR-XL lifting units at the front, the front axle of the Panther 2S can use even wider and extremely soil-protective Michelin IF 900/60 R38 CerexBib2 tyres. Fewer passes and manoeuvres also contribute to soil protection. Significantly higher area performance with...

Cleaning Gentle, efficient and individually adjustable The hydraulically tensioned continental web conveyor efficiently transports the beets to the first turbine. The portal axis enables maximum throughput without slowing the beet flow or damaging the beets. The driver can steplessly adjust the speed and reverse it if necessary from the cabin. The beet flow monitoring prevents the beets from overflowing the machine. Three turbines equipped with forged tines, which have improved speed adjustment (a separate pressure sensor for each turbine), clean the beets with extreme efficiency and care. The...
