SAMSON HPD WHEEL DRIVE
The HPD wheel drive system from SAMSON makes it easy to get slurry tankers and implements up hills without wheel slip and unnecessary field damage.
The wheel drive mechanism ensures that power from the tractor is transferred directly to the wheel axle on the slurry tanker. The slurry tanker thus pulls the machine and implement gently and steadily forwards despite difficult conditions such as hilly and uneven terrain or wet soil conditions.
Gentle movement in the field protects soil and crops and is crucial for crop performance and continued soil fertility. A slurry tanker with HPD wheel drive reduces pressure, wheel slip and driving damage in the field and provides extra accessibility in challenging terrain and wet conditions. This increases working capacity, reduces fuel consumption and maintains efficient and accurate application.
SAMSON HPD wheel drive has automatic power control, ensuring a constantly smooth drive. At the same time, it is easy for the user to adjust the power requirement along the way. The system also includes automatic oil cooling, which prevents overheating and downtime.*
SAMSON HPD wheel drive is designed to maintain smooth driving in challenging terrain and according to high reliability requirements.
The wheel drive system transmits a power output of 55 kW and up to 125 kW per 30 seconds via a boost function to the slurry tanker’s wheel axle. The system has fully automatic power control, which makes the wheel drive easy to use.
The desired power while driving is entered into the SAMSON SlurryMaster 8000 control system, after which it is maintained automatically.
*SAMSON HPD wheel drive can be used on all SAMSON PG II Genesis slurry tankers.
*SAMSON HPD wheel drive is subject to some tractor compatibility restrictions.
