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…

Merlo system “Hi-Flow”

When an agricultural machine has a hydraulic system designed to operate external equipment, it is customary for the system to always maintain this circuit at a minimum working pressure called “standby pressure”, which is necessary to ensure immediate responses to energy demands from operators. This pressure is normally higher than the minimum working pressure and is activated within a few seconds after the machine in question has been started. It is then maintained if the hydraulic system is not used until the machine is turned off. This results in continuous…

Tractor market january-march 2024: all as expected

“Income contraction in agriculture, monetary tightening, geopolitical uncertainty, and inflation have influenced the performance of the agromechanical market in the first quarter of the year.” This is how FederUnacoma, the association of agricultural machinery manufacturers, introduced the data on tractor registrations recorded by the Motorization in the first three months of the year. The organization identifies four reasons behind a decline exceeding 25 percent, and indeed, they all hold true. However, there are two other equally significant reasons. The first lies in the excessive generosity with which the State has…

John Deere “S7”, automatic for the people

Published in 1992, “Automatic for the people,” with 18 million copies sold, was the album that established REM as the rock band symbol of a generation. The title, seemingly bizarre at the time, referred to the slogan of a venue near the University of Athens in the state of Georgia, which had recently begun experimenting with an order automation program for its customers. Higher levels of automation An innovative path that, with due proportion, John Deere has long embarked on in the segment of large self-propelled harvesters and has been…

Ferrari “Stellar 85 Rs”, strong and stable tractor

ferrari stellar 85 rs

Specialized isodiametric tractors are so named because they have all wheels of the same diameter or very close diameters. What sets them apart from traditional tractors are their shorter wheelbases, making them highly maneuverable, and a more balanced weight distribution when carrying equipment. This is because the engine’s overhang relative to the front axle balances the weight of the equipment carried over the rear axle. When the equipment is in contact with the ground, the overhanging engine eliminates or greatly reduces the need to weight the front end with ballast.…
