20th Anniversary of flagship New Holland combine

Must read

New Holland is celebrating the 20th Anniversary of its CX flagship range that has defined super conventional combine harvesting. Since its launch, it has constantly raised the bar on capacity, flexibility and harvest quality. A true technology leader, the CX has pushed the boundaries of innovation, collecting 33 prestigious awards during its long career. The more than 20,000 units sold across the world testify to a success that continues to this day. The CX combine is on display on New Holland’s stand at the SIMA exhibition in a special livery commemorating this important milestone.

Lars Sorensen, New Holland Global Product Combine Leader, said: “When we launched the CX, back in 2002, it made a huge impression on first sight with its curvy lines breaking tradition with the boxy shape of combine harvesters of the time. It was a fitting start for a combine range that would go on to introduce countless ground breaking innovations and become the most awarded straw walker combine in the world.

The CX combine flagship range was born of the strong legacy of New Holland’s harvesting excellence, which includes groundbreaking features such as the brand’s rotary separator introduced in 1972, the integrated armrest since 1993 and the biggest threshing drum in the industry, with a 750mm diameter, launched in 2001.

The 20-year history of the CX is punctuated by the industry’s most prestigious accolades, including the Machine of the Year title at the Agritechnica and SIMA Innovation Awards. It was the first to be designed for precision farming, and in the last 10 years alone, its productivity has increased by 17% and its excellent crop-to-crop versatility have been further improved.

The CX range never stopped innovating, and in 2020 it launched on the market the Ultra-FlowTM staggered drum – the first new drum concept in the industry since the launch of self-propelled combines in 1952. This unique threshing drum design, which uses 16% less total threshing power, reducing fuel consumption and increasing the combine’s capacity by up to 15%, was awarded the Silver Medal at the Agritechnica Innovation Awards 2019. The CX is a true technology leader, with advanced solutions such as the Nutrisense nutrient analysis technology that helps farmers make informed decisions to market their crops more profitably – adding a Silver Medal from the SIMA Innovation Awards 2021 to its crowded award cabinet.

Today the CX combine remains at the top of its game, offering customers the industry-leading   Opti-Speed™ auto-adaptive variable speed strawwalkers, SmartTrax™, Opti-Fan™, Opti-Clean™ and Opti-Spread™ technologies, the best-in-class comfort of its Harvest SuiteTM Ultra Cab, the power and fuel efficiency of the HI-eSCR ECOBLUE 2.0™ FPT engine. The benefits: outstanding capacity, superior harvest quality, lower operating costs and absolute driving pleasure.
