LAFORGE is one of the most experienced suppliers in the world of gear driven front PTO systems for tractors. We started almost 30 years ago to supply them in Europe. The first application was for driving front mounted sugar beet defoliators.

LAFORGE heavy-duty or “Premium” front 3-point systems are well suited for use with dozer blades. “Lift capacity” is not a relevant criterion for selecting a 3-point hitch for this application. The frame and the lift mechanism have to be designed to withstand the side loads, torque loads, and constant pounding generated by a cutting dozer blade. Even snow plows generate a lot of vibrations because of the relative high working speed.  Peak loads experienced from hitting frozen- in items under the snow, or manhole covers also have to be transferred without damaging the tractor.

The surface of your fields is not absolutely flat... and that has direct impact on the quality of work of both front - and rear implements because it generates an uneven working depth. Achieving   the   correct   working   depth  is essential.Working the ground too deep puts unnecessary strain on the equipment and it WASTE FUEL... A too shallow working depth will not give the desired result and might require an extra tillage pass. Equipping your front hitch system with Laforge Automatic Controls improves your productivity, comfort, and the quality of your work. The Automatic Position and Traction Control, in combination with the DynaContour Ultima provides simplified operation, improved implement performance, and maximum tractor productivity while at the same time saving fuel.
