New Holland CS Combines aids in quality straw production
The New Holland Models CS540 and CS640 Combines are built on a new platform designed specifically to address the high-capacity and reliability requirements for global mixed farming/livestock areas, with a special focus on straw handling. The CS combines have a patented Opti-ThreshT concave (121-wrap angle when closed) with an adjustable rear section to give the operator the choice between high throughput (capacity) and exceptionally gentle straw handling. The production of quality straw is achieved by a smoother transition from the threshing drum to the strawwalkers, resulting in a long straw/fluffy swath behind the combine. Innovative technology/architecture has been applied to achieve excellent reliability in all crops and conditions, important in remote locations. Remote-control engagements (main clutch, etc.) are activated by pneumatics. In case of an electronic malfunction, the combine control module (CCM) can be bypassed, and the combine can continue to function normally.
