Kinze is celebrating its 50 years in manufacturing grain carts and introducing the redesigned Harvest Commander grain cart lineup.
The first Kinze grain cart was introduced in 1971 when the company’s founder Jon Kinzenbaw built the 400 Grain Cart.
Beginning in 2022, all Kinze single and dual auger carts will be branded Harvest Commander.
A new model is the dual auger Harvest Commander 1121 with 1,100 bu. capacity. This files out the Kinze grain cart line with a popular sized model which was void since the company discontinued the 1050 model in 2012.
“The 1121 is a high-value, optimally sized grain cart that delivers efficient grain handling with low cost of ownership,” said Susanne Veatch, Kinze president. “Its durable construction, minimum driveline complexity providing operator convenience and low-maintenance track system are designed to provide farmers with a smooth and uninterrupted harvest.”
The Harvest Commander 1121 joins the new model numbers of 1321, 1421, 1521 and 1721–the first two digits represents hundreds of bushels, and the third digit represents single or dual auger, and the fourth digit is the model generation.
The grain carts can be outfitted with Camso tracks, on-demand horizontal auger drive and dump door cleanout. The Kinze dual auger carts also feature auger spout grain control and upgraded lighting.
The new design of the Harvest Commander lineup also features enhanced graphics and the iconic “Kinze Man” icon.
