Power, comfort and maneuverability, the qualities of the New Holland T6
The new New Holland T6 Series tractors feature agility in maneuvers, top flight performance, parsimonious fuel consumption, ample visibility of the work area and vast selection of transmissions
Power and a wealth of new generation of technologies are the winning cards for the new range of T6 tractors at 125 to 175 brought out by New Holland which can also lay claim to well built and impressive esthetics. On the eve of EIMA International 2016 Mondo Macchina/Machinery World is reporting the significant features of these models.
Top class traction and maneuverability. The wheelbase of all the models is 2.6 m with a 4.3 mm turning radius and a SuperSteer™ front axle to make the T6 the most agile tractor around.The SuperSteer ensures great maneurability especially for headland turns and for operations in tight areas. The longer wheelbase provides greater traction and smooth driving for open field work and transport along with better stability with a front loader mounted and in all farm maneuvers.
Power, performance and high efficiency. The T6 tractors are equipped with ECOBlue™ SCR (High-Efficiency Selective Catalytic Reduction) New Holland Technology with Tier 4B type-approval. The after-treatment optimizes combustion while increasing torque and the efficiency of fuel consumption. Moreover, the more responsive engine reaches maximum torque more quickly and resists lower rpm regimes longer. Engine Power Management technology maintains rpm to variations in loads and provides up to an additional 40 HP to maintain productivity in even the most demanding conditions while ensuring great efficiency with the same consumption of liquids, diesel fuel and DEF from an earlier generation with longer refill intervals.
Comfort for the driver and visibility at 360°. The Horizon™ Cab provides the driver with an excellent work environment: two zone air conditioning; noise level reduced to 69 dB(A); a perfect instrument panel and the Sidewinder II armrest for all controls at hand on the Auto Command models. Other than the standard equipment seat there are three new seats available: the Comfort, the Dynamic Comfort and Auto Comfort. The T6 cab is special for visibility in all directions thanks to a huge windshield with a glass surface of 5.85 m₂ and an openable transparent roof hatch. For operations after dark the T6 offers offers a full range of LED work lights with brilliance as high as 10,000 lumen fitted to all models as standard for powerful illumination greater by 60% over the previous generation. These lights turn night into day and also available is a 31,200 lumen light pack.
Wide choice of transmissions. The semi-powershift Electro Command™ transmission allows clutchless change of gears to facilitate work while the optional Auto Modes control gear changes. Auto Field modes on the other hand manage the transmission and the engine rpm to optimize performance and the economy of PTO applications and for the priority of maintaining engine speed. The T6.145, T6.155, T6.165 and T6.175 models are also equipped with the advanced continuously variable Auto Command transmissions which draw on mechanical efficiency for 100% direct power points from the engine designed to correspond to the speeds most frequently used. The Auto Command can be enriched by personalized setting for specific jobs and conditions such as for progressive changes of direction for operations on slippery soil, setting super speed for demand on the gears for almost instantaneous changes in direction or the standard setting for normal work in the field.
