Time for something completely different

Fendt IDEAL. A combine harvester that works wonders in the shortest harvest windows with uncompromising quality and unconditional reliability. A smart solution that lets you experience your harvest like never before, with the latest sensors and smart networking.

The Fendt IDEAL was developed in the global AGCO Centres of Excellent in harvesting technology. Countless farmers and contractors from around the world were asked what combine requirements would make their IDEAL harvest. It's the culmination of this customer input, the combined experience of our developers and the chance to test the Fendt IDEAL all year round in different regions under the harshest operating conditions, that make the Fendt IDEAL the most modern and innovative combine on the market.

Exceptional conditions require exceptional performance – both from us and our machines. A clear view of the cutter unit and feeding with easy ergonomic steering. IDEALdrive brings ergonomics and efficiency to your working day.

For a better view of the table, the Fendt IDEAL offers a revolutionary concept – IDEALdrive. With IDEALdrive, there is no need for a steering column. Instead of using a steering wheel, you control the combine harvester with a joystick on the left armrest. The left hand steers while the right hand controls the speed. It means you have a great view to the front. The joystick's control and intuitive response are proportional to the driving speed. It's easy and safe to control in every situation.

As well as easy steering, IDEALdrive makes various functions very ergonomic to use; the joystick includes buttons for the indicators, dipped/high beam, the horn and the track guidance system. You can pivot the entire armrest backwards, so it's easier to take your seat.

With IDEALharvest, the Fendt IDEAL sets new benchmarks in the field of automated machine settings – IDEALharvest is a revolutionary system that will automate your Fendt heavy-duty combine. Acoustic MAD sensors provide the data required for the Fendt IDEAL to automatically adjust to your pre-selected harvest strategy and achieve the best threshing results. The driver can quickly and easily select from the 3 key harvesting strategies – minimise breakages, minimise grain loss or optimise grain purity. You can also use the slider to prioritise throughput performance. The Fendt IDEAL's rotor and fan speed, top and bottom sieve openings and forward speed are continually optimised to suit the selected strategy. IDEALharvest also displays the machine's crop flow in realtime, so you can use the data to assess crop distribution in the machine. Based on the realtime values of the installed sensors, the transfer volumes and grain losses are displayed onscreen. The Grain Quality Cam helps optimise the grain quality.
