CH3500 Sugarcane Harvester caters to the customer
The Cameco CH3500 harvests sugarcane plants into billets for easy transport to the mill. The CH3500 was specifically designed with the customer's needs in mind and is offered in wheeled or tracked versions. An all-new tilting cab affords the operator unparalled comfort and visibility to the rear of the harvester. The cab tilt feature gives the customer access to the new Tier 2 certified 8.1-liter, 251-kilowatt (337-horsepower) engine and all major hydraulic components. New cradle stops, feedroller bearings, and chopper bearings are all easily serviceable from outside the machine. The new hydraulic system design has given the CH3500 a 40 percent reduction in hydraulic hoses as well as a 50 percent reduction in hydraulic fittings. In addition to its advances in serviceability, the CH3500 is unmatched in harvesting performance. Its design offers customers throughout the world reduced fuel consumption with higher productivity all while delivering cleaner cane to the mill.
