CASE IH heavy-duty tractor factory - How American tractors are made?
All Case-IH tractors are built in the United States.
The Magnum is assembled in Racine, Wisconsin, on the west bank of Lake Michigan, using CNH powershift and stepless transmissions also built there, and front axles from Dana’s Spicer range.
Steiger and Quadtrac artics come from Fargo, North Dakota, 600 miles to the north-west.
These feature powershift units from Univance in Japan and a ZF CVT from the Eccom range built in Passau, south-east Germany, and the town of Steyr in Austria.
All three ranges are powered by Cursor engines from FPT Industrial’s Bourbon-Lancy plant in central France.
European factories produce other Case models, mostly using cabs from the CNH plant in Croix, near Lille, northern France.
The factory in St Valentin, northern Austria, assembles all Luxxum (formerly Farmall Pro), Vestrum, Maxxum, Puma and Optum tractors for the UK, using transmissions from CNH’s Antwerp facility in Belgium and FPT engines from Turin, north-west Italy.
CNH’s Jesi plant near the Italian east coast port of Ancona is home to most of the smaller tractors in the Case range, including the Quantum orchard models and the Farmall C.
All F5C and NEF power units used in other models are sourced from FPT’s Turin factory.
