Here in North America, the growing season is short and the harvest season shorter. As farms have become larger, the need to combine more acres at a faster pace has become a priority.
CLAAS has responded to this need by making their largest combine yet available to the North American market.
Introduced at Ag in Motion at Saskatoon, Rick Hubrich, regional sales representative with CLAAS, says the LEXION 8900TT features 779 max horsepower, a 510-bushel grain tank, 5.1 bushels per second unloading speed, and the CEMOS Automatic system which automatically adjusts machine settings in real-time based on crop flow and changing crop conditions.
This combine also features a new paint scheme commemorating the production of more than 500,000 units since CLAAS started producing them in the 1930s, Hubrich says.
