FEEDING SYSTEM

Increase Functional Performance

Get the job done right with high-capacity features and heavy-duty rotary feeding systems. Enhance crop flow and improve feeding into the combine, resulting in smooth crop flow and reduced wear.

Headers

Improved and expanded header lineup provides the latest in harvesting technology. The following headers are available on the 240 series:
- Corn
- Draper
- Flex Auger
- Grain
- Pickup
Feeder House
- Large feeder inlet to match the throughput and capacity of the 240 series combine
- Rock trap beaters spiral design helps prevent rocks from entering the combine
- Longer feeder house length provides optimal after-cut view behind the header
Feeder Gearbox
- Lower feeder gearbox handles the high horsepower requirements of chopping corn heads and larger headers
- Intermediate feeder protects the feeder with both a friction clutch on the feeder shaft and a radial pin clutch on the feeder drum, which eliminates the need for belts or chains
- Power Plus Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) combine drive provides continuous variable power, reducing complexity and maintenance

TRANSMISSION

Shift Into the Model for You

Whether you want simplicity and convenience or superior control, Case IH Axial-Flow combines are available with the rotor technology that is right for you. Featuring our innovative Power Plus CVT combine drive that is belt-free and low maintenance, the design offers unique in-field capabilities to help you harvest more of what you grow.

Electric Shift Transmission
- Four-speed transmission with improved traction
- Maximize your harvest window with robust final drives that create greater durability and quick, seamless performance
Pump Drives/Separator Drives (PTO)
- Improved PTO gear case design ensures pumps and drives are operating efficiently throughout the entire rpm range
- Industry-exclusive CVT drive maximizes field efficiency, providing reduced complexity and maintenance
Patented Header to Feeder Ground Speed
- Automatically match header speed to ground speed with in-cab electronic variable feeder speed control
- Optimize grain savings in downed-corn conditions
- Header and feeder automatically adapt to combine speed and put more grain in your tank

THRESHING & SEPARATING

Control Your Harvest

We pioneered single rotor development back in the 1960s. Since then, refinements, enhancements and improvements have led to the pinnacle in rotor performance — the AFX rotor. The AFX rotor can be set into many configurations, adapting to both crop and threshing conditions.

Transition Cone and Rotor Impellers
- Patented transition cone vanes and rotor impellers sweep crop from the feeder and gently accelerate it to threshing speed
- Requires no feed accelerator
- Transition cone and impeller draw in approximately 1,100 cubic feet per second through the feeder, providing increased visibility in dusty conditions
AFX Rotor
- 30-inch diameter AFX rotor design provides gentle, multiple-pass, grain-on-grain threshing along with centrifugal force separation
- ST rice rotor is designed to handle tough rice conditions, while providing smoother feeding and improved operational characteristics
- ST rotor tube diameter has been reduced, with the addition of taller rasp bars, allowing for more of the tough rice straw to work through the entire length of the rotor
Modules
- Four modules, each weighing 40 pounds, can be changed within minutes to meet your harvest conditions and type of crop
- Three-piece in-feed ramp allows easier accessibility for improved maintenance

Rotor Cage
- Rotor cage delivers gentle, multiple-pass, grain-on-grain threshing and smoother crop flow
- Concentric rotor cage provides positive crop control and is perforated to allow 360-degree maximum-crop separation
Rotor Cage Vanes
- Adjustable, bolted in cage vanes
- Customized speed to meet different crop conditions
Rotor Drive
- Reliable belt-driven rotor design
- Industry-exclusive Power Plus CVT drive provides shaft-driven power to the rotor
- CVT drive allows for in-cab rotor reversing and deslugging

CLEANING SYSTEM

The Proof Is in the Sample

High-capacity combines need large high-capacity cleaning systems. Axial-Flow combines match cleaning system capacity to the size of the machine, providing superior productivity, grain sample quality and savings. The patented design of the Cross Flow™ cleaning system fan delivers consistently clean grain samples no matter the harvest condition. The result is exceptional grain quality, ideal for food-grade crops or crops grown by any producer who demands the most from his/her machine.

Self-leveling Cleaning System (SLS)
- Optimize cleaning efficiency on flat fields or hills with self-leveling sieves up to 12 percent slope each way
- Axial-Flow 240 series sets the standard with a 10,075-square-inch sieve area
Tri-Sweep™ Tailings Processor
- Using three sets of impellers, the processor gently re-threshes and elevates the tailings, returning them back to the active grain pan for final cleaning
- This results in higher machine capacity, increased harvest efficiency and improved grain quality

Active Grain Pan
- Move grain and material other than grain (MOG) to the cleaning system
- Increases efficiency by separating the grain and other material through reciprocating action before reaching the cleaning system
Cross Flow Fan
- After entering the fan, a vortex is created, which super charges the air flow, giving a full-balanced flow across the entire sieve
- Air enters the full width of the fan from the top — not the sides — resulting in superior air flow

RESIDUE MANAGEMENT

Maintain Easy, Effective Control

The Case IH residue management system is built to handle the tough residue associated with new crop genetics. This system delivers consistency across the larger header widths used on the Axial-Flow 240 series combines, helps prepare the ground for next year’s crop and can create consistent windrow formations and long straw for baling. From tillage to livestock demands, we offer the widest range of residue management features on the market.

Rotor Discharge Deflector
- Positioned directly behind the rotor, providing a central feeding point and deflecting residue toward the chopper
- Rotor discharge deflectors can be adjusted from in-cab or the right-hand side of the combine by a pin that can be placed into four different positions
- Improved windrow formation
Chopper
- Blades are mounted in a spiral pattern, providing better chop quality
- Three separate chopper options to match your requirements
- Improved 24-element beater option for added performance and durability

Windrow Chute
- Two residue modes (spread and windrow) provide options to meet your residue requirements
- In-cab chop-to-swath option available
Hydraulically Driven Spreader
- Hydraulically driven residue spreaders are adjustable in-cab for on-the-go speed control
- Adjust spreading width manually by moving the dovetail in the center up or down

GRAIN HANDLING
