CLAAS LEXION 8900 Combine

Published: July 31, 2024
,

The Claas Lexion 8900 is a combine harvester designed for efficiency and productivity in large-scale farming operations. Powered by a 790 hp MAN engine, it features the APS Synflow Hybrid threshing system, which combines superior grain quality with high throughput. With a massive 18,000-liter grain tank, rapid 180 liters/second unloading speed, and compatibility with headers up to 45 feet wide, the Lexion 8900 ensures minimal downtime and performance in the field. Enhanced operator comfort, advanced technology integration with the CEBIS system, and options like the Terra Trac system for reduced soil compaction make this harvester a powerful and versatile choice.

Claas showcased a limited edition combine at the Ag in Motion farm show in July, celebrating the milestone of producing over 500,000 combines since 1948.
