CASE IH launches the largest combine harvesters on the market - AF series adds single rotor AF9 and AF10
CASE IH introduces the newly developed AF9 and AF10 combine harvesters to help farmers harvest their crops even faster. The new models maximise productivity and flow control through efficient use of power, simplify maintenance and include a full package of precision technologies.
The AF9 and AF10 single-rotor combines complement the new, previously launched AF series. The AF11, a class 10+ high-performance harvester, has already been introduced for 2024. The new series consists of three more powerful, efficient and productive models in the 9 and 10+ classes, helping farmers to harvest more acreage in less time.
„Farmers face many challenges when it comes to harvesting, and we need to help you harvest as efficiently as possible. The AF9 and AF10 combine series will help make this challenge easier to overcome," says CASE IH head of harvesting Leo Bose.
The power of the AF9 (634hp) and AF10 (775hp) combine harvesters allows the harvester to maximise the flow of the crop and work at higher speeds with less load. The AF9 and AF10's AFXL rotor, developed with Axial-Flow single rotor technology, is 40% longer than the 260 series rotor, resulting in higher productivity. Harvesting is maximised, and the harvester's operation is coordinated from cutter to spreader - to harvest as much as possible in a single working hour.
„We focus on solutions that make customers' lives easier and get the job done faster“, says Bose. „We have developed the most efficient AF Series harvesters on the market, with a full package of precision technology included in the price.
The AF Series combines feature a precision technology package that includes two Pro 1200 displays, Harvest Command combine automation and RowGuide Pro™ technology. There is also an automatic „Connectivity Included“ service*, where harvest and machine data is transmitted directly to the CASE IH FieldOps™ app. Farmers will be able to monitor and manage their harvesting operations in one place. These features provide customers with a relaxed and streamlined harvest season.
„In 2024, we are focusing on combine harvesters and introducing an updated range“," said Bose. „From now on, farmers can choose the right CASE IH combine harvester for their needs, from Class 6 to Class 10+.“
The latest CASE IH combine harvester models were launched at the end of August at the US „Farm Progress Show“ and at a demonstration in Europe. After having had the opportunity to see what's new in Denmark, representatives of „Dotnuva Baltic“ are looking forward to introducing the new AF9 combine harvester to Lithuanian farms as early as next season.
