CR Combines

7th September 2011

New Holland has introduced the  CR range of Twin Rotor^TM combines with the world's best grain sample and powered by Tier 4A ECOBlue^TM SCR technology. 

Key features include:

• SmartTrax^TM system for reduced compaction, increased stability and better traction

• Flexible Twin Rotor^TM solutions for guaranteed harvesting efficiency in all crops and conditions

• Opti-Clean^TM cleaning system enhances cleaning capacity to increase overall productivity

• IntelliView^TM IV extra-large colour touchscreen monitor offers increased comfort

• New four chain heavy duty feeder for enhanced throughput on wide frame models

• Higher capacity grain tank and extended unloading auger for improved productivity and reduced downtime

• Powerful Tier 4A compliant FPT Industrial Cursor engines deliver a fast response with reduced fuel consumption and a lower environmental impact

• New combine model numbering to make performance level immediately obvious to customers

New Holland will help its customers to adopt ECOBlue^TM SCR technology during the transitional period by delivering 1000 litres of AdBlue together with an electrical pump free of charge. All New Holland authorised dealers will also stock all products required to ensure conformity with new Tier 4A regulations, including AdBlue, in containers of varying sizes, together with all pumping equipment.

The SCR system offers significant performance advantages. The new CR range develops maximum harvesting power of between 449-571hp, which means operators will have the power on tap to tackle even the most demanding conditions and crops. The range topping CR9080 and CR9090 models are fitted with Cursor 13 engines, the CR8080 and CR9070 boast the 9.8 litre Cursor 10 engine, and the CR8070 is equipped with the 8.7 litre Common Rail Cursor 9 engine.

Fuel consumption has been significantly reduced by up to 10% courtesy of both ECOBlue^TM SCR technology, with an AdBlue consumption of just 5%, and the reduced engine speed of 1600rpm during road transport at speeds of up to 30kph.


Evolution in combine numbering

New Holland has applied its evolved numbering strategy to the CR range of combines to make their performance immediately obvious to customers. `CR' stands for Rotary Combine. The first digit, either a 8 or a 9 refers to the size of the Twin Rotors. 8 for 17" models and 9 for the high capacity 22" variants. The final two digits, either 70, 80 or 90 indicate its position within the range. A higher number means a more powerful combine.
