The 8560 and 8590 were made at the same time but the 8590 was alot bigger heard they did have reliabilty problems at first. we demoed a 8590 when they first come out it out ran the 860 but we still went with a 860. the 8570 was an improved version of the 8560. MF dropped the big rotor design.

How does the 8460 fit into this evolution in terms of capacity and years manufactured IJ

We ran a 1991, 1993 8460 they were conventional Claas combines painted massey colors We ran it with a cih 1688 they had about the same capacity. We put 1900hrs on the 93 with very little money spent on breakdowns. I think MF had them until 1996 then came out with the MF 8680 (C-62 GlEANER) conventional combine.
