Case IH received recognition for its outstanding agricultural innovation across product lines by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE), and went on to win the AE50 awards, highlighting the continuous focus on technological innovation at Case IH 

The awarded CASE IH products include the Steiger 715 Quadtrac, Model Year 2024 Steiger 425-645 tractors, AFS Furrow Command for Precision Disk Drills and toolbar lift system for 2120 Early Riser rigid trailing split-row planter. These products were recognised for their ability to improve and enhance farmers' efficiency across the globe.

Steiger 715 Quadtrac

Case IH’s largest and most powerful tractor ever produced, the Steiger 715 Quadtrac delivers built-in power and speed to cover more ground in less time. The latest model introduces the new heavy-duty Quadtrac undercarriage that offers increased traction to keep up with the engine’s horsepower. Moreover, along with a new hood design, higher output LED lighting and a larger 520 gallon fuel tank, the sight lines are a thing of beauty.

Steiger Model Year 2024 Line-Up

With a peak horsepower range of 467 to 699, the new Steiger tractors boast updated FPT 13L Cursor engines with an updated fuel system, numerous serviceability improvements and a simplified exhaust system providing improved visibility from the cab. The new models also include numerous operator-focused cab improvements such as an updated cab top with integrated grab rails, new overhead console, improved monitor mounting and an optional premium sound system. Higher output LED light options have also been added for improved visibility during late nights in the field.    

AFS Furrow Command

Case IH’s AFS Furrow Command improves overall seed and fertiliser depth control by automatically adjusting the hydraulic pressure independently for each frame section. Not only does this automatic control greatly reduce wear and tear on equipment through the minimisation of unnecessary and excessive downforce in conditions that don’t require maximum hydraulic pressure, but also greatly improves operational flexibility through automation, no longer requiring manual adjustments from an operator in the cab.

Toolbar Lift System for 2120 Early Riser Rigid Trailing Planter

The toolbar lift system consists of two unique parallel link assemblies actuated by two hydraulic cylinders, supporting two storage positions, a plant position, and a new transport position that provides industry leading ground clearance in transport for a rigid trailing split-row planter, with a stable ride provided by the positive tongue weight. Additional benefits include unique ‘eye level’ access for maintenance and adjustments of planter row units versus traditional ‘ground level’ service.
