Model LEXION 8000-7000 - Combine

SHARE
Turning heads and acres in record time. Meet the all-new LEXION 8000-7000 combine - built with your efficiency in mind. Because we know you can’t put more hours in the day, but you can put in more acres. A successful harvest calls for the precise interaction of the entire machine chain, with the combine harvester playing a key role. It is the decisive factor for reliable seasonal performance, year after year. The optimized LEXION models are the most productive machines on the market - measured in terms of harvested areas or tons per year. Even when operating in unfavorable conditions, they can be counted on to bring their strengths to bear precisely when you really need maximum performance. So you can save time and fuel while operating more productively than ever before. Find out how the LEXION can help you to bring in your next harvest in time, economically and reliably.

Average acres per hour.
Harvest more acres per hour than any other combine on the market thanks to the capacity of the APS SYNFLOW HYBRID system.

Fuel usage.
Save money on fuel with increased fuel efficiency due to machine design and DYNAMIC POWER. 

Grain handling system.
A grain handling system that features the industry’s largest grain tank and a faster unload speed, matched perfectly with the highest capacity processor per class size in the industry, means less unloads needed. 

Precision.
Optimum performance, even when time is at a premium.
Everyone is looking for an edge, and the CLAAS LEXION combine gives you the advantage you need. The CEMOS AUTOMATIC combine automation system that makes autonomous and automatic real-time in-field adjustments with more precision and speed than a seasoned operator.

CEMOS AUTOMATIC by the numbers.
CEMOS AUTOMATIC automatically makes precise adjustments with more speed and accuracy than a seasoned operator, which results in 25% more engine utilization, 10% more throughput (bu/hr), 32% less material other than grain in sample, and 58% less grain loss. 

Grain loss comparison.
Individual threshing and separation speed adjustment capabilities allow the operator to set the machine precisely for the crop and condition it is harvesting in - meaning minimal grain loss.

Machine adjustments.
In-cab adjustment capabilities give the operator complete control of machine configuration on-the-fly.

The automatic way to secure excellent harvesting performance.

The CEMOS AUTOMATIC self-learning assistance system supports you actively throughout the entire work process. It checks all the settings on the basis of harvesting parameters such as throughput, standard of cleaning, grain quality and threshing quality while the machine is running and optimizes it up to its technical performance limits.

CEMOS AUTOMATIC has a modular structure. You can configure both the entry-level version and the full version in line with your specific requirements in order to benefit from digitalization in three ways: more comfortable operation, a smoother harvesting process, and lower costs.

Capacity Proven. Quality Focused. Zero Compromises.

Three combines. One field. See how they compare.

CLAAS set the standard on combine throughput and fuel efficiency, long before the LEXION 8000-7000 Series combines made their first pass through a field.

How do the new combines from CLAAS handle sensitive premium crops like soybeans for seed? See how the new LEXION stacked up in a side by side comparison.

 

Side by side by side.

In order to test grain handling capability, CLAAS hired an independent firm to analyze grain samples from a head-to-head-to-head comparison of Class 8 machines between the CLAAS LEXION 8600, John Deere S780 and Case IH 8250.

Combines were run on the same day in the same climate and crop conditions in the same field, one section planted with an early maturing variety and one with a late maturity variety. The three machines were dialed in to factory recommended settings and run at their full engine load. Multiple grain samples were collected from each combine per variety, packaged and sent to the Illinois Crop Improvement Association, Inc. for splits, coating damage, and germination analysis.

 

Grain Quality Results
Splits

Splits are an easy way to gauge a combine’s sample quality and fine-tune settings.

The largest premium comes from the least amount of splits. While slowing down rotor speed typically helps reduce splits, that can result in more foreign matter in the grain tank or more grain being lost out the back.

The LEXION advantage is that all components of the combine can be adjusted independently in order to reduce splits without increasing grain loss.

Coating Damage

Percentage of Coating Damage – Using the soak test, the percent of coating damage was calculated out of a set number of seeds.

A reference germination was also conducted on a hand threshed sample as a baseline and subtracted from the test samples to only show seed damage that was caused during harvesting.

All combines averaged between 4% and 5.3% total coating damage, all within the allowable range.

Germination

Coating damage is the best way to gauge germination. Less coating damage leads to higher germination, which is critical -- especially in seed-producing operations.

The LEXION, John Deere, and Case IH combine all produced grain samples with 98% germination rate or better, with the CLAAS combine producing the samples with the highest germination rate of all 3.

 

LEXION. Boost your productivity without sacrificing grain quality.

While the differences in splits was competitive between the three different machines, the LEXION 8600 actually produced less coating damage and higher germination rates than the competing machines, according to the sample tests conducted by the Illinois Crop Improvement Foundation. The LEXION was able to deliver premium quality grain samples, while still keeping our grain losses under one percent, proving that you don't have to give up performance to achieve premium grain quality.
