Monster combine delivers 10% more

Written by 

THE WORLD’S most powerful strawwalker combine (up to 490hp) is among the offerings from New Holland in a launch of its new generation CX7000 and CX8000 elevation super conventional combines. 

 

They deliver “unmatched straw quality and the cleanest grain sample for large-scale farmers and custom harvesters,” the company says. 

“The CX range was launched in 2001, and today it is still the most powerful, highest capacity conventional combine in the world,” says New Holland combine product specialist Greg Moore. 

“The introduction of our award-winning Opti-Fan and Opti-Clean technology improves cleaning performance by up to 20% and will enhance the profitability of all farmers.”

The standard Opti-Fan system compensates for the impact of uphill and downhill slopes on harvesting performance. 

The CX7000 and CX8000 Elevation combines also feature the exclusive Opti-Speed strawwalker technology, which delivers up to 10% more productivity on slopes. This automatically varies the strawwalker speed based on the field’s slope. 

The operator selects from four pre-sets – wheat, corn, canola and rice – and the Opti-Speed system takes care of the rest.
