Case IH is expanding its equipment portfolio with new solutions aimed at helping farmers improve field productivity, simplify machine operation, and get greater value from their equipment.
“Producers today are navigating an increasingly complex landscape and our job is to help make that easier,” said Kurt Coffey, Vice President, North America at Case IH.
“We are focused on evolving our fleet, bringing together robust horsepower, more comfort, intuitive precision technology and full machine lifecycle support with our parts and service offering to ensure every producer we serve is equipped to maximize their profit potential and time in the cab,” Coffey added.
Among the key developments are enhancements to the Axial-Flow 160 series combines for the 2027 model year. The updated machines feature dual Pro 1200 displays, giving operators access to live GrainCam images while also enabling Remote Display View and Real Time Monitoring through FieldOps. These capabilities provide greater visibility into machine performance and harvesting conditions.
Precision technology has also been strengthened. The Vector Pro receiver and RowGuide Pro improve row guidance, while AccuTurn Pro enables automated steering for end-of-row turns.
Connectivity Included provides access to connected technology without requiring producers to manage recurring subscription renewals. Buyers can select from two technology packages for easier machine configuration.
Beyond the cab, upgraded sensors are designed to improve responsiveness and reliability. A new dual cross-auger shut-off system helps limit grain loss and supports consistent grain-handling performance.
The Axial-Flow 260 series gains standard LED lighting for improved visibility. New cast-iron cone rotor vanes are designed to extend the service life of key components, while ActiveTrac scrapers help remove accumulated mud and debris around the sprocket to minimize track wear.
Case IH is also updating its AF series combines with a shorter unloading spout for improved grain cart clearance. A broader spreader-speed range supports better residue distribution, particularly when operating with narrower headers.
Producers needing a compact working footprint can also select the new 28.5-inch ActiveTrac option.
