New Holland CR9000 Elevation combine harvester for better harvest quality

New Holland CR9000 Elevation combine harvester for better harvest quality
• Exceptional capacity - more engine power

• The best harvest quality - Twin Rotor concept

• Lower costs - new engines

• Ultimate comfort - 1ere class cab!

New Holland has upgraded its CR9000 combine harvester range by adding two additional Elevation models, high-power engines delivering better performance and the advanced IntelliCruise™ technology.

The range of four models, based on New Holland's unique Twin Rotor™ concept, comprises the CR9060, the new model: the CR9070 Elevation, and the evolution of the CR9080, which becomes the CR9080 Elevation, alongside the classic CR 9080. The "Elevation" suffix highlights the improved performance of these flagship combine harvesters.

Field comparisons, in different crop varieties and harvesting conditions, have shown that the new CR9080 Elevation offers a 10 % increase in net capacity compared with the previous model.

Outstanding capacity
The CR9000 range is already renowned for its high capacity in all situations. However, the introduction of new engines has made it possible to increase performance even further. The Iveco Cursor engines feature an advanced injection system delivering impressive power throughout the day and in demanding conditions.

The CR9080 Elevation now develops a maximum power of 530 ch, while the CR9070 Elevation delivers 470 ch; the CR9060 and the CR 9080 develop a maximum of 394 ch and 455 ch respectively in their classic versions.

The new CR9070 Elevation is positioned above the CR9060, which remains unchanged. It uses the same components as the CR9060, that is, a threshing and separation area of 2,43m2 and a total cleaning area of 5,4 m2. However, the CR9070 Elevation receives the 10 500 litre grain tank and the 1 000 litre fuel tank of the CR9080 Elevation.

The new IntelliCruise™ automatic crop feed system monitors the machine load and regulates crop feeding by adjusting the forward speed. Sensors monitor crop density at the cutterbar in order to detect any variation in the crop as early as possible and anticipate a potential overload. IntelliCruise™ delivers consistent, optimal performance with great driving comfort.

The best harvest quality
The large surface of the counter-rotor of the CR9000 provides plenty of time and space for threshing and separation. Unlike hybrid threshing and separation systems, the in-line crop flow of the Twin Rotor concept does not use a combination of longitudinal and transverse rotors, which can cause changes in the direction of the flow and grain damage.

The new cleaning system on the two top-of-the-range models easily handles high throughput by optimising the stroke and clearance angles of each of the main components. The preparation floor is no longer coupled to the pre-sieve or the upper sieve. Thus, each element can operate at its maximum efficiency. In addition, the new design reduces overall machine vibrations and increases operator comfort.

The large quantity of straw leaving the machine requires special treatment. With reduced-tillage or no-till techniques, it is essential to chop the straw finely and spread the residue perfectly across the entire cutting width.

The CR9000 straw choppers were developed and produced by New Holland to achieve perfect spreading. Two chopper versions are available: with four or six rows of knives. The six-row choppers have specially profiled knives on the sides that act as a throwing fan. Combined with a chopper speed of 3 500 tr/min, these choppers guarantee fine straw distribution across the entire cutting width.

Cost reduction
New Holland is aware that in modern farming, as in any other business activity, reducing costs is as important as maintaining high productivity. Gentle grain threshing and straw handling reduce power absorption and therefore fuel consumption. The precise fuel injection and clean combustion of the new engines also contribute to the overall efficiency of the CR9000.

The CR9000 are high-technology combine harvesters. They are equipped with the yield monitor, which is part of New Holland's precision farming system. This tool enables farmers and contractors to closely track harvest performance and reduce input costs where appropriate.

Ultimate comfort
The CR9060, CR9070 Elevation and CR9080 Elevation or standard benefit from the largest cab on the market, a cab that combines a panoramic view and an ergonomic layout of the controls, all in a quiet working environment.
