Case IH Unveils New RB6 Round Balers & 2026 Square Baler Upgrades
Case IH has released details of its all-new round balers and redesigns to its large square balers aimed at increasing productivity.
And over the years they have developed a machine of high output, low maintenance and easy operation.
Updates to the 240 series for the coming season will see improvements aimed at performance, productivity and profitability.
The three model range comprises the 7240, 8240 and 9240 delivering 498, 571 and 634hp respectively via FPT engines that do not require AD-Blue or any EGR to meet emission requirements in New Zealand.
The power increase over the previous season should see longer, more productive days and is further supported by larger fuel tanks.
Up in the cabin the operator has a new multi-function control lever which takes care of header, rotor, cleaning and residue functions and the drivetrain. Grain tanks are bigger (14,400L) on the largest machines and modifications to the clean grain auger promote even filling and durability.
Getting the clean grain away from the harvester into trucks or trailers is by a 10.4m folding auger with a pivoting unloading spout for accurate load placement.
And at the rear of the machine, redesign of the straw chopper sees a reduction to 24 blades from the previous 28, which is said to give better chop quality.
