Combine harvester produced by [http://shortlynx.com/07B Claas Omaha Inc.] in the U.S. andCLAAS /Germany (see [http://shortlynx.com/07C Claas Group KGaA] ).History
The facility opened in
2001 as a joint venture withCaterpillar Inc. and the combines were originally marketed as Caterpillar combines, with Lexion as the model. The company continues to grow through the support of a dedicated manufacturing and engineering team that continuously develops new technology for the requirements of the North American market.The North American LEXION combines are distributed and serviced by Caterpillar Dealers.

Modern Marvels .Confusion
It can be confusing as Lexion combines were formerly partly owned by Caterpillar, and they used Cat engines. The Challenger brand of combines by
AGCO use the same color-schemes, and Cat engines. The Challenger brand is used under license from Caterpillar as AGCO bought the tractor business from them. Two very different combines, similar colors and roots.External links
