Claas Launches the Stage V Axion 900 Tractor Series
- Claas introduced the Stage V Axion 900 series in September 2020, with optional or retrofit Ctic tyre inflation and self-learning Cemos[3]
- The Axion 960 Cemos won Sustainable Tractor of the Year 2021, chosen by 26 journalists from 25 countries out of 18 finalists[3]
- Axions are built at Claas's former Renault tractor plant in Le Mans[2]
Notable features
- The Axion 900 is Claas's large standard tractor series, covering 325 to 445 hp maximum engine power under Stage V, with the Axion 960 its most powerful model[3][4]
- All models keep the six-cylinder 8.7-litre FPT Cursor 9 engine without EGR, now with an SCR catalyst that also filters particles, giving 1,600 to 1,860 Nm of peak torque from 1,400 rpm; the Axion 960 makes 445 hp and 1,860 Nm[4][5]
- The CMATIC continuously variable transmission is the only option, giving maximum torque at any speed from 0.05 to 50 km/h, and the 930 and 960 are also offered as Terra Trac tracked versions limited to 40 km/h[4]
- Cemos received the DLG approved label for fuel savings of up to 16.8 percent and 16.3 percent productivity increase[3]
- The CTIC 2800 tyre-inflation system's 2,800 l/min compressor takes 600/70 R28 and 710/70 R38 tyres from 0.8 to 1.8 bar in 80 seconds, is controlled over Isobus from the Cebis terminal, and can be retrofitted to Arion 500 and 600 and Axion 800 and 900 tractors[5]
