Case IH AF Series Combines
February 6, 2024 Blog

The newest evolution of Case IH’s Axial-Flow combines, the AF11 brings high-efficiency farming to the next level. This Class 10+ combine features dual-rotor technology, innovative AFS Harvest Command™ automation and Case IH’s highest-ever total combine capacity, allowing you to harvest more acres with less grain loss than ever before. All new AF11 combines also come with a lifetime subscription to AFS Connect™.

Next Generation Harvesting

With a 775-hp engine, the AF11 is the most powerful combine offered by Case IH. A 567-bushel grain tank and 396-gallon fuel tank let you cover more acres in less time.

Designed, engineered and built by farmers, this combine is packed with the latest in automation, connectivity and harvesting technology, backed by decades of Axial-Flow reliability.

Larger Area Equals More Efficient Processing

Building on nearly 50 years of harvesting excellence, with proven Axial-Flow rotor technology, the new AF11 introduces the next evolution in high efficiency farming, the AFXL2 dual rotor system. AFXL2 dual rotor technology creates a much larger total threshing and separating area. A longer rotor provides 50 percent more separation over previous models. The AFXL2 rotor allows greater crop condition adaptability with six concave modules and 12 separating modules.

Grain separation is taken to a new level with the exclusive HX+ Rasp Bars that work together in an all-new stepped rotor cage. This system loosens the crop mat for more effective grain separation with higher crop throughputs, even in higher moisture crops. The AFXL2 dual rotors are driven with the industry exclusive Power Plus CVT drive for superior power transfer and efficiency in all crop types – and include in-cab rotor reversing.

Every Operator Can Be an Expert

The most advanced harvesting automation system available, AFS Harvest Command, comes standard on all AF11 combines. Each automation mode prioritizes different harvesting outcomes — from grain quality to grain savings to throughput. You choose the mode of automation to match your harvesting goals. Set the crop type, maximum operating speed and power limits and AFS Harvest Command handles the rest. Choose from four modes of automation to fit your operation:

  • Performance: Maximize grain savings and grain quality while optimizing throughput.
  • Grain quality: Maximize grain quality while saving grain and optimizing throughput.
  • Max throughput: The operator can maximize throughput while automation adjusts combine settings to save grain.
  • Fixed throughput: The operator can fix the machine throughput and the machine will adjust to save grain and maintain a quality sample.

In-Cab Display

The AFS Pro 1200 display brings  a new level of productivity and connectivity to harvesting. The AF11 combines come equipped with two of these displays, mounted within easy reach.  With seven nameable runscreens, the AFS Pro 1200 allows the operator to input Harvest Command settings, set up autoguidance and share real-time data with remote managers or consultants.

The AFS Pro 1200 display features an anti-glare screen, Bluetooth® capabilities and a familiar Android-based interface.

Residue Management with the Next Crop in Mind

 

Field preparation for the next crop begins with harvesting the current crop which is why the residue management system on the AF11 has been agronomically designed to meet the needs of any producer regardless of crop type and yield.

Paramount is the matched capacity of the residue management system related to high volumes of crop material harvested. With the AF11 you can:

  • – Automated residue spread compensation for a uniform spread pattern, even in windy conditions.
  • – Adjust the performance of the residue management system from the cab, such as chop quality and chop/swath control.
  • – Spread farther to accommodate today and tomorrow’s larger headers.
