Tractor Engineering
Engineering at its best
Tractor Engineering Solution
From first concept up to Start of Production - meeting time and cost targets
Flexible application diversity in a cost effective manner, productivity increase including precision as well as sustainability are driving the industry.
The Challenge
Application diversity leads to many variants
- How can I manage application diversity in a cost effective manner?
- How does the future powertrain have to look like in the off –road industry?
New technologies electrification
- Which types of electrification are most advanced for the agricultural industry?
- How to deal with the diversity of tractor and implement producers concerning electrification approaches?
Process Optimization
- How to use electrification in order to optimize power supply at the implement?
- How to successfully use autonomous driving solutions considering tractor and implement control?
