Full Chassis with Oscillation ACTIO™:
One incredible feature, many plus points


ADVANTAGES:

  • Short wheel base and tight turning circle = maximum maneuverability on all types of terrain
  • Better distribution of weight = maximum grip, less wear and tear on tyres.
  • Central, lower drive position = the prolonged use of the tractor is less stressful with respect to more traditional tractors; greater protection for the operator.
  • Transmission inside the chassis = good ground clearance, lower centre of gravity; maximum stability even with transverse speeds on steep slopes and in the case of loss of grip, sliding of the tractor avoids a roll over.
  • Doubling of the total mass of the tractor and ample lateral oscillation = the parts of the tractor counterbalance each other thereby maintaining maximum adherence of the tyres to the ground.
  • Possibility of being fitted with 4 large wheel drive = greater traction.
The Full Chassis with Oscillation system known as ACTIO™ consists of a powerful, steel section which forms an integral part of the axle, which houses both a front and rear transmission and has an articulated joint which allows for longitudinal oscillation of a good 15 degrees.
Essentially with the ACTIO™ system the TGF acts as a single unit made up of two completely independent tractors of the same mass and dimension which oscillate independently of each other following the contours and different gradients of the terrain, thereby maintaining constant stability and grip.
With its overhanging engine the total weight of the tractor can be redistributed - 60% of its weight on the front axle and 40% on the rear one. Ideal balance which becomes perfect when rear equipment is fitted: 50% on the front and 50% on the rear.
The ACTIO™ system provides for the use of four large wheel drive, with the rear wheels slightly bigger than the front ones; on the TGF, thanks to its adjustable mudguards, it is possible to choose any type of tyre combination (R20 rear and R18 front or R24 rear and R20 front), as well as many different widths in order to obtain the best equilibrium between traction and performance according to the terrain and the task at hand. The constant grip of the tyres with the ground due to the longitudinal oscillation allows the engine to ground all its power with consequent advantages in terms of productivity and safety.
