New Holland, PA (August 28, 2006) -  Backed by more than 30 years of rotary combine experience, New Holland’s new CR9000 Series Twin Rotor® combines continue to deliver best-in-class features in grain handling, tank capacity and ergonomic cab design. Three models ranging in horsepower from 305 hp to 400 hp are available.

Capture more grain

The CR9000 Series features New Holland’s Twin Rotor® design, which generates more centrifugal force than any other rotary design for faster separation, grain quality and maximum capacity.

The SLS self-leveling cleaning system uses a unique grain pan system that stratifies grain and spreads it evenly as it feeds into the cleaning system for more efficient cleaning. A sensor reads changes in terrain and automatically levels the cleaning system up to a 15% slope to keep the combine’s cleaning system running at peak efficiency so more grain is captured in the tank and not on the ground. The CR9000 Series have the largest cleaning area in the industry, improving capacity in every condition.

Designed for productivity, inside and out

Powered by a fuel-efficient, turbocharged six-cylinder diesel engine, all models are electronically managed to shift power when needed, so there’s no need to slow down when unloading. For rapid unloading, 21-to-24-foot augers deliver grain at a fast 3.2 bushels per second rate.

The Advanced Stone Protection™ (ASP) feature utilizes sensors below the crop to differentiate rocks from grain to detect and eject stones. The best-in-class feeder/house reverser system operates independent of the threshing unit so the operator can work slugs into the rotors in a controlled manner.

Even when working a long, rigorous workday, the Harvest Suite™ cab provides operator comfort with more interior space (110 cu. ft), more glass area and superb lighting, all best-in-class features. IntelliView™ II and IntelliView™ Plus II color performance monitors and fully integrated Precision Land Management systems are available options.
