500,000 Combines Worldwide Mark a Significant Achievement

CLAAS recently introduced a special combine to mark the production of its 500,000th combine.

Farms.com connected with Greg Frenzel, product manager at CLAAS, to learn more about this specially wrapped combine.

A large decal displaying “500,000” and “CLAAS” is prominently displayed on the machine. If you look closely you will also see the original CLAAS patent, the knotter, within the CLAAS lettering.

The special edition features a silver metallic finish to pay tribute to the very first combine threshing machine produced by CLAAS, along with metallic green paint like that used on all current machines.

Plans are in place to showcase this special edition combined at various farm shows and demonstrations throughout the upcoming year so keep your eyes peeled for this special unit.

Take a look at the special CLAAS LEXION combine in the below video.
