John Deere's Harvest Motion and Harvest Motion Plus technologies optimize component speeds and engine performance in the 9000 series forage harvesters to improve fuel efficiency and forage quality.
Experience new levels of efficiency and driver experience with the John Deere's Harvest motion and harvest motion plus concepts on our 9000 series SPFH. Did you know all component speeds have been optimized for working at low RPM. Even at low engine speeds like 1350, the cutter head is still over 1000 RPM, meaning no sacrifices to forage quality, blowing performance or any risk of blockages. Harvest Motion and Harvest Motion plus have long, flat power curves. The exclusive power and torque bulges on the Harvest Motion plus deliver an unbeatable and unique engine characteristic in both power delivery and crop throughput. The 9500 DLG test in 2023 saw performance reach 270 tonnes an hour with only 700 PS and specific fuel consumption as low as 0.49 litres per tonne. These engines really do deliver a unique driver. Sam.
