RACINE. Wis. During Case
IH business meetings held recent
ly in Milwaukee, Case unveiled
the next generation of its popular
1600 Series Axial-Flow® com
bines.
The new Case international
1644, 1666, and 1688 combines,
which will be available early in
1993, deliver significandy higher
horsepower than their predeces
sors. They also incorporate new
technology that provides higher
air quality to the cleaning system.
Many other changes have been
made for enhanced performances
and reliability.
The axial-flow design intro
duced in 1977 remains a Case ex
clusive, according to the com
pany, providing a gentler, more
efficient harvest for better quality
Dairymen’s
Clyde Robison was a director,
an officer and often limes presi
dent of virtually every statewide
and local dairy organization that he
belonged to. He was n strong sup
porter of the Jersey cow, farmer
cooperatives, the Extension ser
vice, the AI Industry, Penn State,
the Fair Association and his
church.
Clyde went to meetings to par
ucipate and not just to be there. He
would ask the tough questions, the
ones other people were thinking
about but were reluctant to ask. He
wouldn’t settle for just one opin
ion. He would ask for input from
anyone present i f they thought they
knew anything at all about the sub
ject being discussed.

Case Unveils Next Generation Combines
grain and more of it, according to
Gerry Salzman, Case product
manager-combines. “During the
last few years, we’ve continued to
make numerous upgrades in our
Case IH combine line, taking an
excellent product and making it
even better,” he said.
Horsepower up
but not rpm
Advances in engineering have
made it possible for Case to in
crease horsepower on these new
combines while actually reducing
engine rpm on the two larger mod
els. The 1644 is rated at 180 PTO
horsepower at 2500 rpm, and the
1666 and 1688 deliver 215 and
260 horsepower, respectively, at
2200 rpm. These ratings are 20 to
25 horsepower higher than in the
1640, 1660, and 1680 combines,

which the new units replace.
“Keeping engine rpm down
with these higher horsepowers
means longer engine life, and
that’s a quality factor that’s im
portant to our customers,” said
Salzman. '
In fact. Case has made several
modifications to accommodate the
increase in horsepower, including
enlarging the air cleaner, hy
draulic oil cooler, and radiator as
necessary on respective units to
handle increased demands on air
flow and engine and hydraulic
cooling systems.
Salzman indicated that the other
key feature of the new combines is
the cleaning system. “We’ve ap
plied a longer chaffer and shoe
sieves, as already developed for
the 1680, to all three units,” he
said. This increases the cleaning
area by more than 20 percent,
which reduces sensitivity to crop
variations.
“For the customer, that means
belter utilization of the threshing
and separating capacity of the Ax
ial-Flow rotary system,” he said.

New fan distributes
air evenly
“But what really puts the extra
capacity to work for the customer
is thQ new Cross Flow™ fan our
engineers have developed. It dis
tributes air evenly over the entire
sieve area,” he said. “This is pat
ented technology offered only on
Axial-Flow combines. It alleviates
high-velocity air pockets that can
blow grain out the back of the
combine.”
According to Salzman, the
chevron pattern and cupped blade
design of the Cross Flow fan gen
erate more air volume at a fraction
of the previous fan’s horsepower

The new Case International 1644,1666, and 1688 com
bines, which feature higher horsepower and a superior
cleaning system, harvest better quality grain and more of
requirements, and noise from the
fan is minimal.
“Our customers who have test
operated pre-production units
have been especially impressed
with the fact that the new cleaning
system hardly requires any adjust
ments,” said Salzman. He added
that some customers actually said
they didn’t need to adjust the
sieves for an entire crop season.
Changes improve
reliability, serviceability
Another important change Salz
man noted is that the feeder rc
verser drive chain on the new units
features a high-temperature
“0”-ring design. “While we still
recommended daily lubrication,
the chain is effectively scaled

from dust and dirt. Wc’vc found
the design extends chain life by
200 percent or more,” he said.
Bolt-on feeder chain slats arc
slandard equipment on the new
models because they can be re
placed much faster than riveted
slats. The stalk roll bearing on
com heads has been replaced by a
sealed water pump bearing to in
crease life and eliminate daily ser
vicing. A split drive on grain
headers provides belter balance
and longer life for drive compo
nents.
‘These and other changes help
our customers get their work done
faster and better,” said Salzman.
“And that’s what this new genera
tion of Case International com
bines is all about.”
