New Holland: Revised Stage V CR Revelation combines announced for 2020

New Holland’s CR Revelation combine range has consolidated its market position with a power upgrade and a host of improvements that further raise its efficiency and best-in-class grain quality. It has also introduced the industry leading ECOBlue HI-eSCR 2 technology to comply with Stage V emissions standards, maintaining the excellent fuel economy of the previous models.

New Holland’s crop harvesting product manager, Lars Skjoldager Sørensen, said the CR Revelation combine range kept raising the bar on performance and grain quality.

“We’re constantly striving to increase our customers’ productivity and profitability,” he added. “We have made more than 100 quality improvements in the past 24 months alone, in addition to the IntelliSense automation system that took automation to a new level when we introduced it last year.

“The CR Revelation reigns supreme as the combine for the large-scale farmer who wants the best harvest performance, grain quality and Total Cost of Ownership in the industry.”

New Holland is following the power upgrade on the CR10.90 and the CR8.80 with increases across the rest of the range. At the low end of the range, the CR7.80 and CR7.90 have been uprated by 14hp and 11hp respectively. The CR8.90 now runs a Cursor 13 engine that develops 544hp – 27 hp more than previously, while the CR 9.80 and CR 9.90 benefit from an additional 29hp, reaching 600 hp.

The CR 8.80 and CR10.90 maintain their powerful performance with maximum power of 517 hp and 700 hp respectively.

The CR Revelation range continues to build on the strong heritage of 45 years of experience with its groundbreaking Twin Rotor technology. This continuous improvement has resulted in an increase in its harvesting productivity of up to 25 per cent in the past five years. In addition, the harvest window of the CR can be extended, starting earlier in the morning and finishing later in the night, further contributing to the combine’s high daily productivity.

The threshing efficiency of the 17-inch rotor on the CR7.80, CR7.90 and CR8.80 models has been improved with new 20mm higher crop covers and increased beater speed. It also features an adjustable beater grate that can be opened and closed in minutes. It’s been opened further to provide 0.26 square metres additional separation surface (a 75 per cent increase) resulting in greater productivity. These improvements deliver a 10 per cent increase in these models’ capacity.

The heavy-duty, high-capacity 22-inch rotor on the four models at the top of the range also benefit from the increase in beater speed, which contributes to further improving the combine’s productivity and a five per cent capacity increase.

The new high-capacity grain elevator on the 14,500-litre grain tank of the top-of-the-range CR9.90 and CR10.90 increases the combine’s grain transport volume by 10 per cent. This enables higher harvesting speeds in high yielding crops, boosting further the massive efficiency and productivity of these models.

The CR Revelation range complies with Stage V emissions standards with the industry-leading ECOBlue HI-eSCR 2 technology, which maintains the excellent fuel efficiency of the previous models. Combined with the long, 600-hour service intervals, this contributes to the low operating costs of the combine.

The cab interior of the CR Revelation has also been refreshed with a new, darker colour scheme that reduces reflection on the windscreen, improving visibility. The brushed aluminium finish of the dashboard gives the cab a premium automotive feel. The dark coloured liners are less sensitive to stains and dirt.
