Rubber Tracks for Machinery and Vehicles in Forestry and Agriculture,
Abstract
In agriculture and forestry it is important to increase mobility and lower the ground pressure to avoid soil compaction and damages to the ground. Rubber tracks have flexible sides which give a much more lenient behaviour to the ground than steel tracks. A special track system, the twin-bogie with rubber tracks, evens out obstacles and increases the mobility on all types of surfaces. This system together with a variation of vertically adjustable bogies has a big potential in the military sector. A light and thin rubber track reduces soil compaction in agriculture and is very useful in all ecologically sensitive areas.
