I know someone who has a Trion 750 on a Vario 770 and a John Deere T660 on a 725X. Both great machines had the Trion working at 7 kph in wheat, 4.3 mph for ye Americans, which is very good since in Europe we have have higher density crops, we get the Trion 720, 730 and 750 over in Europe. The 720 and 730 are the single rotor hybrids and the 750 is a 2 rotor hybrid.
It's all depends on the situation. The beans we were harvesting were very healthy, with a lot of green stems. Also, we harvest soybeans for seed production, and our goal is to minimize splits, as a result, I have to run the threshing system less aggressively. Considering all those factors, the Deere machine can do a little better overall job.
In corn you are only pulling in the ears and you typically have a smaller size header, whereas in soybeans your are pulling in the entire plant. The amount of bushels running through is the not issue, as the separating and cleaning capacity is more than sufficient. The Claas has a different threshing design than a Deere, which is more conducive for corn but not quite as effective in soybeans.
They have the claas Trion which is the 720, 730 and 750 in Europe and the 740 in America. And the Lexion which is the 5300-6900 walker range and they 7400-8900 2 Rotor Hybrid Range. The machine in the video is a Trion 740.

Our neighbors demoed a Trion with a 40ft head in 70-75 bushel beans running 4.2-4.5mph consistently.

Might I ask what size deere are you comparing it to? I have a 680 and wanting to go to a Trion.
That is pretty neat!
If it's got more capacity in corn would it not do just as good in soybeans? You crop is getting smaller and corn has the highest bushels per acre.

Would this be a class 6? I think class 7 is as small as they make in the other series...could be wrong. Don't know a whole lot about Lexion.
Ahhh...you don't say! 😆
