New Holland CR9090 SmartTrax '2011–14

14 September 2011

New Holland has developed the all-new SmartTrax™ system in-house to ensure that it is the perfect match for CR combines. The triangle structure has been designed to reduce ground pressure by up to an impressive 57%, when compared to wheeled machines, and to improve stability while maintaining the manoeuvrability of tyred combines. The SmartTrax™ feature positive lug drive, which ensures maximum tractive force is transferred to the ground. The separate drive and tensioning wheels offer ultimate simplicity for improved mechanical efficiency, reliability and reduced parasitic losses. The automatic continuous tensioning belt maintains ideal tension for maximum traction.

The SmartTrax™ system also features rubber-block suspension with 3 central independent rollers, which enhances the ride both in the field and on the road, at speeds of up to 30kph. SmartTrax™ are available in two track widths: 24” (610mm), for conformity with the 3.5 metre transport width restriction, and 30”(760mm), ideal for those working in the most extreme conditions. The triangular design ensures a positive contact with the soil and unsurpassed traction when working on the steepest slopes or in the muddiest conditions. The unique swivel mechanism can even lift the CR out of ruts when harvesting on boggy ground.
