Xerion Trac Ts, the new Claas crawler

 

It’s called Xerion Trac Ts, a tractor with four tracks powered by a Stage V engine, one of the great new products of Claas for Agritechnica.Two versions are available from the German company - Xerion Trac Ts 5000 and 4500 of 530 and 490 Hp - equipped with Camso 762 mm tracks (produced by the Dutch company Zuidberg). The tracks are characterized by a wider support surface on the ground (+25% compared to “rubberized” tractors) and offer a more robust traction force, reducing the pressure on the ground to a minimum; moreover, they are equipped with a pendular suspension system thanks to which they adapt to the morphological profile of the terrain. The engine, an OM 470 MTU, achieves torque at lower rpm and gives the new Xerion 4200 30 horsepower more than the previous model, the Xerion 4000.Thus the operator has “at the tough of a joystick” all the power needed to manage auxiliary equipment, such as manure spreaders. The exhaust gas treatment system (DOC, DPF and SCR) is housed inside the tractor chassis, a constructive solution designed to optimize the construction architecture of the machine and not impact on the view of the work area. The engine of the new Xerion stands out also for the reduced maintenance intervals, every 1000 hours. That is twice as much as previous series. Moving on to the driver’s seat, the newcomers of the Claas stable come with the CMOTION multifunction armrest and the Cebis touchscreen, already available on both the Axion model and the Arion model. The 12-inch touchscreen offers a clear overview of all key machine settings and allows direct access to steering, transmission and hydraulic system specifications. The individual settings made by the driver can be stored on a USB stick and transferred to another Xerion, if necessary.The Xerion Trac Ts has a tare weight of 24 tonnes and an external width of less than 3 metres.
