| True, but the area doesn't tell the whole story. A Lexion 590R is nearly the same size as the CaseIH 8120/9120 cleaning system too. Don't underestimate the role that air (pneumatic cleaning) plays in a combine. Some machines make much better use of air than others. At the extreme is the Gleaner - its cleaning system relies quite heavily on pneumatic cleaning with mechanical cleaning area (square inches) playing a somewhat secondary role. Other machines use air to a lesser extent, and therefore demand more from the mechanical aspect and rely heavily on area to do the job. While the Case has a big area, it can also struggle in higher moisture corn and will tend to overload on the right side of the shoe in good corn. There are a few issues needing to be worked on there as well. | |
