New Holland Agriculture is introducing new features that will further help customers boost their productivity. The CX7, CX8 and CR are now able to better tackle steep in-field slopes with the new award-winning Everest Sidehill system, while the CX5 and CX6 benefit from the accuracy and efficiency achieved with the new IntelliSteer-Lite automatic steering system. There are also new engines for the kargest CX8 models.
Stage V emissions compliance comes to the CX8.80 and CX8.90, which now FPT Industrial Cursor 9 engines featuring ECOBlue, Hi-eSCR2 technology. These fuel-efficient engines, combined with the maintenance-free after-treatment system, deliver a powerful performance with low operating costs.
The Stage V emissions standard brings a further 40 per cent reduction in particulate matter compared to previous Stage IV engine, and the new set-up means the flagship models at the top of the range become even more powerful, with the CX8.80 benefitting from a 14hp increase in maximum power to 415hp.
The CX5 and CX6 combines are now available with New Holland’s new IntelliSteer-Lite factory-fitted automatic steering system. This enables the operator to work at a higher forward speed, reducing the time needed to complete the job. The system’s accuracy also results in lower fuel consumption due to increased efficiency and less overlapping, maximising the customer’s return on investment.
The operator, meanwhile, benefits from lower levels of stress, as they can focus on the combine’s performance rather than steering. A further advantage of the new IntelliSteer-Lite system is that it can be moved to a tractor after the harvest season.
The CX7, CX8 and CR flagship combines are now available with the new, award-winning Everest Sidehill and Everest Integral compensation system. Models featuring this innovative system are engineered to counteract lateral slopes of up to 20 per cent. Everest integral can also counteract longitudinal slope up to 32 per cent.
The system keeps the threshing, separation and cleaning system perfectly level to offer high performance in side hills. The straw elevator entry section maintains optimal feeding on the steepest slopes. This, together with level grain tank filling means that the combine’s performance is the same on the slope as it would be on ground level. The Everest Sidehill system can work in combination with a self-levelling cleaning shoe to deliver 100 per cent efficiency on slopes of up to 30 per cent.
The CX and CR combines featuring the Everest Sidehill system were awarded the “Machine of the Year” title at SIMA 2017 for their benefits in terms of harvesting productivity and efficiency for customers who are working in challenging conditions. The innovative system was also recognised by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers with an AE50 award.
