Mauguin Citagri - Tandem and Tridem Axles
Depending on the capacity of the tank, there are different models of running gear: 1, 2 or 3 axles. For tonnes from 4,300 to 11,000 liters: 1 axle. For tonnes from 12,000 to 16,700 liters: 2 Bogie axles. For tonnes from 18,000 to 21,000 liters: 2 Tandem axles. For tonnes from 23,000 to 27,000 liters: 3 Tridem axles. The Tandem and the Tridem are available in two versions: blades or hydraulic suspension with lifting axle. It is also possible to choose the type of braking: hydraulic, air or mixed. For Boggie, Tandem and Tridem axles, the choice will be between a free follower, an automatically managed follower, a forced follower by jack or a forced follower by angular sensor.
- Trailing axle: the wheels orient themselves freely ...
- Self-managed follower: it has the same functions as the free follower except…
- Forced follower: it imposes the direction of the wheels in forward gear ...
On the trailing axle, the wheels move freely from right to left in forward gear. A control in the cab allows the axle to be locked at high speed as well as in reverse.
The automatically managed follower has the same functions as the free follower except that the axle locking control is performed automatically from a speed of 12 km / h.
The forced follower imposes the direction of the wheels in forward and reverse and requires a link between the tiller and the tractor (cylinder or sensor control).
For the forced follower by jack, the adjustment is made from the cab by simply pressing a switch. For the angle sensor, the programming is carried out in the factory.
The tiresThe choice of pneumatic equipment is essential when purchasing a slurry tanker. The road and field use constraints therefore require reflection. In 98% of cases, the radial structure matches perfectly. Several criteria will be used to define the choice of the type of tire:
- Tire load index
- The profile
- The height
- The width
- Congestion
Certain tires will be better suited to the remote inflation system. This is a system that allows the wheel pressure to be changed between the road and the field in order to preserve soil compaction.
