John Deere

The first John Deere X9 series combines were ready for the 2020 harvest season. The brand's top model, manufactured in the USA, featured two 610-millimeter cylinders, whereas the S series had one 760-millimeter cylinder. The cylinders rotated eccentrically within their threshing chambers. There were two models: 1000 and 1100. They differed in engine power, grain tank capacity, and unloading speed. The smaller model's maximum power was 639 hp, and the larger one with two turbochargers produced 700 hp. The tanks had capacities of 14,800 and 16,200 liters respectively, with unloading speeds of 162 and 186 liters per second. The headers were draper types measuring from 9.15 to 15.2 meters. In addition to a 10-degree side tilt, it was also possible to lower both edges below the center point. The stepless drivetrain was robust, consisting of two pumps and four motors, with maximum torque at a speed of 8 km/h.

The four-chain grain elevator, at 172 cm wide, was the largest on the market. The chopper's patented, serrated blades were novel in design and self-sharpening. The cab (72.8 dB) was new and larger than before, but the control armrest and steering lever were similar to those in the S700 series. In the most expensive Ultimate package, the cab included, among other things, a leather seat and steering wheel, carpet, electrically closing cab door, seat heating, cooling and massage, and a refrigerator. Several packages were also available for the threshing automation and cloud services. The 1250-liter fuel tank could be optionally equipped with a fast-fill feature, allowing filling at a rate of 550 liters per minute. The X9 was marketed as a tracked version, but a wheeled version was also available. The sieving system had a standard 7-degree tilt and an optional 14-degree tilt.

John Deere X9 1000-1100

In spring 2024, the S700 series combines were replaced by the S7 series. The smallest model was dropped from the European lineup. The S7 series featured a single longitudinal cylinder as the threshing mechanism, now with a diameter of 834 mm instead of the previous 762 mm. The cylinder is divided lengthwise into three zones. The first takes care of feeding the straw mass, the middle one replaces the threshing drum, and the last one handles the rasp bars. The engines were still advanced 9- and 13.5-liter Stage V compliant models. The smallest model had slightly more power than before, and fuel consumption was promised to be 10% lower than previously. The AdBlue tank was larger than before. The Ultimate technology package included a new predictive ground speed automation, which aimed to adjust the combine’s speed based on factors such as terrain, the amount of biomass detected ahead by cameras, loss percentage, and engine load. The harvest settings automation, included in the Premium and Ultimate packages, handled adjustments of the threshing mechanism based on user-defined limits for loss, cleanliness, and damaged grains. The tank unloading rate was 150 liters per second.

The S7 combines featured the new design and cab first introduced in the X9 series (72.8 dB) as well as a 12.8″ G5Plus display. Standard equipment included HarvestDoc crop documentation, JDLink modem, AutoTrac automatic steering, a rearview camera, and an air-suspended seat with lumbar support adjustment.

In the summer of 2024, John Deere introduced new T5 and T6 series axial-flow combines. The number of model options was increased to eight. The threshing system was mostly the same as before, but as standard and optional equipment, there was more technology previously introduced in the larger models. The smallest model featured a 6.8-liter engine, and the others had a 9.0-liter Stage V engine. The 9.0-liter models included automatic features familiar from larger JD models, which reduced engine speed during road travel and lowered it to a minimum of 1200 rpm at intersections. Most models could be equipped with a continuously variable transmission as an option. The largest versions of both the 5- and 6-axial-flow models had even larger grain tanks. The sieves in all models were about 10% smaller than before. As previously, behind the threshing drum were the control drum, post-threshing drum, and rear straw drum.

The cab was now the same as in the larger models, originally introduced in the X9 series, and the display was a 12.8" G5Plus. The Ultimate technology package included a new predictive ground speed automation system that aimed to adjust the combine’s speed based on factors such as terrain, the amount of biomass detected ahead by cameras, loss percentage, and engine load. The harvest settings automation included in the Premium and Ultimate packages managed the adjustments of the threshing system according to user-defined thresholds for loss, cleanliness, and broken grains. Standard equipment included HarvestDoc yield documentation, JDLink modem, AutoTrac automatic steering, and an air-suspended seat.

John Deere T5 400 – T6 800

In the 900 series, JD's European combine harvester lineup expanded to include larger harvesters than before. The first hydraulically driven model was the 985 Hydro/4. The parallel model to the 965, the 968 Hydro, was not introduced in Finland. Advanced features of the model series included the Cross-Shaker, a "rake machine" that mixes straw mass on the concaves, a rotary engine air intake, and optional hydraulic adjustment of the straw walker length and the Revermatic system, which allowed for direction changes by pressing the clutch pedal deeper than usual using two clutches. The cab was also available as an option from the start. There were 10 daily lubrication points.

The engines of the 960 and 970 models in the 1975 machines were 5.9 liters, previously they had been 5.4 liters. For 1976, these models were replaced by the 965 and 975, which featured, among other improvements, larger sieves and more powerful engines. In 1977, a 12-degree tilt for hillside harvesting was added as an option to the 965, making it one of the first combines to have this feature.

John Deere 960 – 985

The production of the S-series rotor combines in Europe began in 2012. In the autumn of 2017, the transition was made from the 600 series to the 700 series. The S-series featured a single longitudinal cylinder as the threshing mechanism. The cylinder is divided lengthwise into three zones. The first manages the feeding of straw mass, the middle one replaces the threshing drum, and the last one the straw walkers. The most visible innovation was a new cab, designed to closely resemble the 6R series tractors. The new CommandPRO control stick had 7 individually programmable shortcut buttons. The GreenStar 4600 touchscreen was larger than before. The noise level was reported as 71 dB.

The threshing automation was said to be the most advanced in the industry. Harvest Smart adjusted the driving speed based on engine load and the pressure exerted on the grain. Active Terrain Adjustment regulated the operation of sieves and the fan on uphill and downhill slopes. Auto Maintain took samples of the crop every 2 seconds, analyzed them with cameras, and adjusted, among other things, the rotor and the straw elevator. The 700D series cutting tables equipped with a belt conveyor replaced the previous 600D table. The standard table was still the 600R. Except for the smallest model, the S-series was also available with tracks or as a tilt hillside harvesting version.

For 2019, the ICA2 adjustment automation was introduced, which was based on cameras and sensors. The automation made fine-tuning adjustments to the threshing mechanism as conditions changed. This was promised to increase threshing efficiency by up to 20%. The engines were updated to meet Stage 5 requirements through software updates.

John Deere S760-S790

The threshing capacity of the 2016 John Deere T-series combines was promised to be 15% greater than before, mainly due to longer concaves, a larger sieve area, and increased threshing cylinders. The T-series had three threshing cylinders. The diameter of the separating cylinder located between the main threshing cylinder and the after-threshing cylinder was increased to 500 mm. The after-threshing cylinder had grown as much as 800 mm. The front rasp bar was 8 degrees wider than before.

The fan was redesigned, and its adjustment range was broader than before. The sieve was partly made of aluminum, and a 7-degree tilt of the sieve was standard. The rear axle was also updated for increased maneuverability, and the structure always allowed room for components required by a four-wheel drive model. Starting with model T560, a road speed of 40 km/h was now available. Track equipment was also available for the same models. The engines featured twin turbochargers, urea injection, exhaust gas recirculation, particulate filters, and oxidation catalysts.

For 2018, the rasp bar of the first threshing cylinder was changed to a three-piece design. The first two sections could be quickly replaced when harvesting special crops.

John Deere T550 – T670

Under the large MD 260 S, Lanz introduced a smaller lineup in 1956. The MD 18 S was equipped with a 182 cm cutting width and a 34-horsepower MB diesel engine. The raising of the cutter bar and the feed drum was hydraulic. The threshing drum was 80 cm wide and only 40 cm in diameter. It had five concaves, which were considerably wider than the threshing drum (105 cm). Unlike other sack-type combines, the MD 18 S did not have a cylindrical sieve for cleaning.

The MD 25 S had a cutting width of 230 cm. Its engine was a 50-horsepower Perkins. Its threshing drum measured 50 cm in diameter.

The largest models in the lineup were the MD 35 S and MD 40 S, which replaced the old MD 260 S. They were powered either by a 4-cylinder Perkins engine (62 hp) or a 6-cylinder MB engine (68 hp). Common features across the entire Lanz range included two gears, six threshing-drum speeds, engine placement next to the operator’s cabin, replaceable straw and grain sieves, and a large number of lubrication points. In the late 1950s, the machines’ color changed from yellowish to John Deere green, and in the early 1960s the brand became John Deere-Lanz.

In 1961, the MD 25 S was replaced by the MD 250 S, which had a cutting width 10 cm greater.

More from this manufacturer

Here is the English translation:

The experienced thresher manufacturer Lanz began developing harvesters already at the end of the 1930s, but the interruption caused by the war lasted until 1953, when the first pull-type harvester, the MD 180, went on sale. In the same year, a prototype of a self-propelled harvester was also unveiled, which went into production the following year under the model designation MD 260 S. The cutting width corresponded to the model number.

The width of the threshing drum was an impressive 140 cm and its diameter was 50 cm. The speed of the threshing drum could be adjusted in six steps. The engine was either a 6-cylinder Mercedes diesel or an Opel Kapitän gasoline engine. Both produced 68 hp. The engine was located next to the driver. A baler was included as standard equipment.
