Rottne Industri introduces the new Rottne H13F – a harvester that steps into a new machine class, combining the agility of the proven H11 platform with increased capacity, higher performance, and a completely new level of operator comfort.
With the H13F, Rottne introduces a machine developed for operators who want more power and greater capabilities – without compromising flexibility. The machine builds on the H11E platform but has been upgraded with larger 26.5-inch bogie wheels, improved stability, and significantly enhanced terrain performance. In the 8WD configuration, the machine is also extended by 250 mm, further improving stability and operator confidence in demanding terrain.
– The increased working pressure of 280 bar combined with a 10.3-meter crane gives the H13F the capacity to handle larger harvesting heads such as the SP661 Lite and Log Max 6000V, says Mathias Paulsson, Product Manager at Rottne Industri.
– At the same time, a 6WD version is available for operators who prioritize maximum agility and a compact machine format. For those who prefer a larger chassis for thinning operations, the machine can also be equipped with an 11.3-meter crane combined with smaller harvesting heads.
To match the demands of the larger machine class that the Rottne H13F is now entering, tractive force has also been upgraded to a full 200 kN – ensuring the right conditions even in tougher environments.
A new generation of operator comfort
With the Rottne H13F, Rottne also introduces the next step in the F-series harvester cab. The cab features extensive upgrades with a focus on ergonomics, comfort, and the working environment. New features include a new control system, a new electrical center, updated control panels with 7-button harvester joysticks, and an electric mini steering wheel integrated into the right armrest.
The interior has also received a redesigned dashboard layout with an improved sense of space and enhanced visibility. Practical features such as smart storage solutions, cup holders, and a lunchbox heater are included as standard. Climate comfort has also been improved through a more efficient climate control system and smarter airflow management.
At the same time, safety has been further enhanced with stronger safety glass and larger opening rear emergency exits, improving both safety and visibility.
The Rottne H13F will be the first machine in Rottne’s new F-series and marks the direction for the harvesters of the future – where productivity, power, and operator comfort go hand in hand.
