Only two events will remain of agricultural mechanization

Hard times for everyone, either due to economic problems or for war reasons. In all the most important manufacturing sectors, sales are going slowly and in the absence of incentives there are fears that many production organizations will not be able to overcome the stress to which they are subjected. Only two events will remain of agricultural mechanization Confirmation is provided by the trend of sector and non-sector trade fairs, with the former all experiencing a downward reclassification, moving, when things go well, from international to national and from national…

“Onox” by Raumideen, the unconventional electric tractor

One of the most interesting aspects of full electric propulsion lies in its flexibility of installation. Traditional powertrains indeed impose rigid mechanical connections that limit layout possibilities. Electric propulsion, on the other hand, allows for a wider range of design schemes, also due to the possibility of distributing the machine’s power among multiple units onboard where it’s most beneficial. “Onox” by Raumideen, telescopic loaders set the example An example in this regard is the design layout of electric telescopic handlers, propelled by two motors, one for traction and one for…

Claas “Trion” range, a combine harvester with solid performance

Held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, from November 30th to December 12th, the 28th edition of the United Nations Conference on Climate Change, abbreviated as “Cop 28,” has repositioned agriculture at the center of the global economic-environmental scenario. The annual meeting of the countries that participated in the event has indeed changed the traditional paradigms of discussion for the first time, omitting both the usual generic and predictable speeches regarding the need to protect the environment and those fanciful proposals for epochal changes that in Europe materialized in the utopian…

With Dieci’s “Agri Pivot T80,” load management is also automated

agri pivot t80 dieci

Officially, it can move loads of up to 35 quintals and unload bulk materials up to almost four and a half meters in height. It also provides a pulling force of 60 tons and a towing capacity of 66, performance close to those offered by the top-of-the-line telehandler that Dieci offers in its “AgriFarmer” series, the “34.7” model, whose telescopic arm, however, exceeds six meters in height with its joint. Put in these terms and considering that the price difference between a telescopic loader and a telehandler exceeds 40,000 euros,…

The lady in red by Case Ih: here is the “Af11” combine harvester

Initially marketed only in North America, the new top-of-the-line axial combine harvester “Af11” by Case Ih aims to redefine industry performance standards not only in terms of power output but also, and above all, in terms of hourly productivity and automation of operational processes. Based on the latest agricultural censuses in Italy and the United States, the average surface areas of the two primary sectors show incomparable extensions. 188 hectares beyond the Atlantic Ocean, 14 and a half hectares in the Belpaese. An almost abysmal difference that, although known and…

Kuhn seeders series “Maxima 3” and “Kosma”, precision in their dna

The masses involved are among the operational parameters to be carefully evaluated when choosing equipment. Heavy weights are not always essential, especially if, with the same final result, using lower masses also helps reduce the risks of soil compaction and fuel consumption. This is especially true when using seeders, machines that, depending on the type of work to be done and the soil conditions, must adapt to specific needs in order to always guarantee the best ratio between performance and operating costs. For this reason, Kuhn has tailored its offering…
