Comments: - Norm. But such a use of this technique is like driving a Kamaz to work. Entire sowing complexes are attached to such a technique, otherwise it will not justify itself. but only in this way and not otherwise.
Currently, the fastest tractor in the world is the JCB Fastrac 8000. The British agricultural tractor reached a speed of 166.7 km / h, thus breaking the previous record from March 2018 by almost 27 km / h. It was made possible by a 6-cylinder engine with a capacity of 7.2 l and a torque of 2,500 Nm, which is capable of developing up to 1,000 hp.
Worst commercial ever, go till your land at a speed of 243 km. Any madman who drives a tractor that fast should be locked up in a mental institution and never let out again.
The first type has evolved over several years.
On introduction of the Fastrac this style of gearbox had 18 forward gears (6×3) and 6 reverse (6×1). These were organised as 6 manual gears in each of 3 ranges (Low, Medium and High). The range box also selected reverse giving 6 reverse gears with speeds similar to medium in forwards. All gear changes were made with the use of a dry clutch.
This gearbox then had a 2-speed powershift section added after the dry clutch and before the 6-speed gearbox. This resulted in 36 forward gears (2×6×3) and 12 reverse (2×6×1).
Following this the 2-speed powershift section was changed to 3-speed version. Giving 54 forward gears (3×6×3) and 18 reverse gears (3×6×1)
The latest version of this gearbox a wet clutch replaced the dry clutch still with 54 forward and 18 reverse gears.
The second type fitted to 4000, 8250, 8280 and 8310 Fastrac models features a CVT (IVT) hydrostatic power-split gearbox which is one of the most advanced tractor gearboxes available
