Harvestors Axial-Flow 150

Power meets economy: our engines deliver economic fuel efficiency without sacrificing peak load power. The secret lies in ensuring that the power is transmitted to the threshing elements and the drive-line as efficiently as possible.

More power than ever

With the new 150 Series combines, you will enjoy power delivered whenever you need it. The FPT Industrial engine line used in the Axial-Flow 150 Series combines is a reliable, proven performer. The NEF 6.7 (5150) Cursor 9 (6150 and 7150) are designed for optimum fuel efficiency, whilst providing the power needed to respond quickly to changing conditions in the field.

Low fuel consumption

Featuring electronic fuel injection, these engines deliver power growth when you need it; so you can always harvest and unload at the same time in even the toughest conditions. In addition to its remarkably low fuel consumption, the engine is both quiet and environmentally sound. The 950 liter fuel tank (6150 and 7150) holds more than enough for a full day in the field.

Single rotor technology: at the heart of every Case IH combine is the rotor. It has been developed to meet the most different harvesting conditions, all around the world.

The Axial Flow advantages:

• Gentle but thorough threshing protects crop quality bonuses
• One rotor threshes and separates – fewer moving parts to worry about
• Top quality grain – un-bruised and undamaged – strengthens your bargaining power when selling
• On-the-go rotor speed and concave opening adjustment: increased daily performance and revenue

Best in class grain quality

Cracked grain is the bane of good sample quality, not only because of the damaged kernels themselves, but also because they can be easily blown out of the back of the combine. With the benefits of Axial-Flow threshing Case IH combines consistently deliver top quality grain samples. Rasp bars are arranged in four spirals around the rotor, for improved threshing and better straw quality in tough conditions.

Don't waste tie changing threshing concave

The rotor compartment is accessible from either side of the combine and the interchangeable modules are easy to remove and change for different crops - a true Axial-Flow benefit. The Threshing and Separation areas can be customized following different yields and conditions.

Introduced in 1977, the first Axial-Flow combines stood out from the traditional straw walker design, in that threshing and separation were now performed by a rotor. At that time, the new rotary design was the first of its kind to be mass-produced and represented a giant step forward for farmers, with increased capacity translating to a significant boost in productivity. But while the principle has remained unchanged, with each range development Case IH engineers have utilised the very latest technology available to meet future farming needs. Axial-Flow 150 Series combines benefit from that same forward thinking, and incorporate some of the very latest concepts not only in threshing and separation, but also in areas from cleaning to unloading, from engine to transmission technology. The end result is a combine range built not just to meet today’s farming challenges – but to take on tomorrow’s too.

The best grain quality: Axial-Flow combines have always been acknowledged for thorough threshing and clean crop samples. If there are two things that a combine is rated on, it is how well it threshes, and how well it cleans. Chaff and straw have no place in a grain tank, and that is why Case IH puts a great deal of design thought into creating a combine with one of the best threshing, separation and cleaning systems on the market.

Undamaged grain gets a better price

The grain-on-grain threshing action of Axial-Flow not only limits grain losses in the field through more effective separation, but also ensures that what goes into the grain tank is clean and high quality crop, adding revenue to your bottom line. There is no high impact conventional drum like that used in conventional or hybrid combines, and the transition from threshing to separation is completely seamless. Centrifugal forces ensure perfect separation even in the most difficult conditions.

Grain-on-grain in threshing advantages

• Centrifugal force grain separation for gentle threshing and separation
• The impeller design and multiple rasp bars provide total crop threshing and mat control even in tough conditions
• Continual crop contact and pressure ensures positive crop control and maximum throughput

Get a head start on next season: regardless of how you manage your fields, the combine represents the transition from one season to the next. How you spread the chopped material matters for subsequent crop establishment, whether via full-, minimum- or no-tillage systems, your straw should be chopped consistently during the day and spread out evenly.

Innovative straw management

• Easy switching from chopping to swathing allowing quick changeover in the field
• Simple manual adjustment for chopper speed change
• Quick adjustment for 7 different counter knife positions
• Allows spreading of long straw to speed up drying in bad crop/weather conditions

Unique integrated chopper

In chopping mode, the unique integrated chopper lacerates and cuts the straw for fast decomposition before the next planting season. Fixing the counter knives into preset positions in the straw channel allows the chopping aggression to be altered according to the conditions. In windrow mode the counter knife is extracted and the chopper works at reduced speed to place the straw in a neat windrow for efficient baling.

Sharp blade fine chopping

The position of the counter-knives can be regulated easily with just a lever on the left side. Seven different settings are available for different lengths of straw. A shear bolt protects the counter knives against overloading caused by material backup. For customers that require higher chopping intensity, a row flail chopper is available to satisfy the most demanding conditions.

Spreading

The chopped material can be spread over the entire header width thanks to the high efficiency mechanical spreader. This solution provides not only great efficiency, but also reduces the overall straw management complexity and ensure easy maintenance.

More in the tank, more in the bank

• Top pivoted, inclined unloading auger allows enough space to safely unload the grain into high-walled trailers
• Easy view to the unloading auger from the comfort of the cab without any

Generous grain tank

Axial-Flow 150 Series combines are designed to put large quantities of clean, high quality grain in the tank – and fast. Once crops are ripe and ready, we know your priority is to get them off the field and into the shed as quickly as possible.

Space for everything

Every Axial-Flow model has a grain tank that is designed to be large enough to allow the opening up of large, high-yielding fields without the inconvenience of having to stop and unload. A new high capacity elevator allows high speed harvesting of high yielding crops like corn. There is sufficient grain tank capacity to work in high yielding crops and large fields while leaving enough time between unloading cycles.

More filling capacity

Optional, electric grain tank extension folding function, makes for easier transport/storage, as well as fast acting protection if the weather turns bad. The open style extensions widen the grain tank towards the top, to ensure maximum fill without spillage when working on rolling fields. The central grain tank filling auger reaches high over the top to keep filling efficiently without crop pushing back.

Easy maintenance access

When it is necessary to enter the grain tank for servicing, maintenance or cleaning, Case IH engineers have made the task safer and simpler. A ladder makes it easier to gain full access when necessary. No tools are required to extend or retract the standard grain tank extensions. Axial-Flow combines are designed to ensure you spend more time in the field, and less time setting up and servicing.

Uploading auger

The auger lengths on all Axial-Flow models allow you to maintain a comfortable distance between the header and the grain trailer while unloading on the go.

Pivoting Spout

The pivot spout option, operated with the multi-function handle, directs the grain stream into the grain cart filling it to the top without spillage.

More time in the field

Uncomplicated drive-lines

Case IH is known for using very few and very practically placed drive-lines, so that access remains easy to all service points. The drives for the whole combine are powered from a central gearbox mounted directly to the engine for maximum efficiency. Indeed, Axial-Flow is unique in that all the principal power transmission is achieved without the use of belts, avoiding the problems associated with slip, wear, maintenance and replacement.

Powerful rotor drive

The on-the-go adjustable variable speed, belt drive for the rotor utilities a stronger belt to transmit the power for high throughput on the 6150 and 7150 combines. Its “torque sensing” ability tensions the drive automatically for high power demands.

Turning Radius

Thanks to the short combine frame and the impressive turning radius, the Case IH Axial-Flow 150 Series combines offer outstanding maneuverability in the field – making headland turns a quick and easy task.

Best-in-class cab comfort: open the door to your Axial-Flow combine’s cab and step into a world of comfort. Long, tiring working days are made a little more bearable in one of the quietest, most spacious and most comfortable cabs on the market. With rubber cab mounts to reduce vibrations and an instrument console within easy reach on the arm rest, you can sit back and get the job done.

Easy comfort

The cab is accessed via the fordable steps which lead to a spacious deck. Open the cab door to reveal a comfortable workspace with storage or anything you’ll need during those long harvest days. The ergonomic layout, an air suspended operator seat, low noise levels and an unrestricted view all contribute to ideal working conditions for the operator.

No limits on your working day

When it’s time to harvest, crops have to be removed from their fields fast. Harvesting often extends late into the night to make use of optimal weather and crop conditions. LED Lights on the roof of the cab completely light up the work area. Additional lights in the grain tank, on the unloading auger and at the rear of the combine ensure all critical areas are fully illuminated.

Excellent ergonomics

The cab features ergonomic layout to give you full control at all times, with an unobstructed field of vision, a comfortable seat and plentiful leg and foot room, the Multi function Propulsion Control Lever which is conveniently integrated in the right armrest, and the AFS PRO 700 display integrated on the lateral console. Working in such an environment is rewarding – not only because it means earning your income but also because you will be experiencing a powerful mix of comfort, productivity, and tangible results.

Operations center

With the instrument panel on the right hand, all important data and settings are available at your fingertips, letting you handle and operate your combine efficiently and with ease. The screen arrangement is logically configured. The driver’s view remains unobstructed, while the control of the header’s corners is easy, allowing the operator to fully concentrate on the harvesting process.
