ADR Geplasmetal, reference in suspensions for agricultural trailer

Editorial Interempresas10/01/2014

The evolution of the agriculture in a lot of parts of the world has forced to the constructors of agricultural machinery to stimulate projects and look for solutions vanguardistas for the equipment, with the aim to ensure the maximum reliability and hygiene so much in the work in the field as in the circulation by road. Like consequence have appeared new components, especially axles and suspensions, developed in base to these new requirements, and Geplasmetal is in the first line of the innovation.

ADR Geplasmetal, with the aim to fulfil the new requirements of the agricultural machinery has axles like Black Bull, with tubular structure in steel of high resistance; with the versatile steeringal axles Dual Mode, that with the same body Black Bull, can be autodireccionales or steeringal with hydraulics commando with the use of the suitable hydraulics system; and with his big range of mechanical or hydraulics suspensions. All these innovations are presents in the range Geplasmetal because when a new technical requirement dominates the market, even the already existent products serve of stimulus.

Supensiones Type bogie: infatigables and robust

This type of suspension has made history in the world of the agricultural trailer, robust and simple adapt to all type of terrain even in conditions of extreme work. But when going converting the trailers in vehicles increasingly sophisticated, the rudos ‘bogie' seemed to have perspectives of use increasingly limited. Thanks to the collaboration of the Group ADR, with wide experience purchased along decades of presence in countries where the agricultural mechanisation is advanced, has made possible the manufacture of a new generation of suspensions type bogie with geometry projected to increase the provision.

The new bogies incorporate parabolic crossbows, are lighter and have a structure with new design to incorporate axles direcccionales and improve the manoeuvrability even with tyres of big dimensions. They incorporate axles with tubular structure that have turned into integral part of the suspension for interactuar, thanks to his own characteristic, with the elesticidad of the parabolic crossbows, to form together a group homogéneo of high provision.

Suspensions type KB, KE: the experience to the service of the hygiene

The series K offered by Geplasmetal is, for the manufacturers of agricultural trailers, synonymous of suspension. His diffusion in all Europe and in the countries with more evolution of the agricultural mechanisation are proof of his extreme versatility of use and big adaptability to all type of conditions, thanks to his modularidad. It allows to realizar vehicles practically with a boundless number of axles, so much fixed like steeringal. The dynamic efficiency is easily perceivable in the first braked: always balanced and extremely safe, with big adherencia and without vibrations, and with distances of braked inferior to the marked by the legislation.

The system of union of the crossbows to the chassis of the vehicle allows the maximum freedom of adaptation to throw them off balance of the terrain and a high sensitivity to the dynamic loads during the course, to end to ensure an effective intervention of the system of braked even to high speed. All the unions incorporate silenblocks to cushion the vibrations, reducing the noise of course and the costs of maintenance.

Possibility to realizar groups of suspension in standard version or with axles above the crossbow mounting any axis of the range Geplasmetal, especially the series Black Bull, that does of the suspensions KB and KE some always adapted suspensions to the requirements of the mechanisation of the agricultural sector, showing a level of provision to the level of the vehicles of high performance that in some countries can circulate even by motorway.

Supensiones Type KW; compact, robust, reliable

KW Is a family of suspensions with parabolic crossbow, developed to improve the hygiene and capacity of load of the agricultural trailers. The low profile of the crossbow allows to reduce roughly 100 mm the necessary space for the suspension in the chassis, allowing project the chassis of the trailer of a form optimised reducing his weight in profit of the useful load of the trailer. The structure is more rigid that the suspension by crossbow multihoja traditional, providing establidad and hygiene of course in vehicles with high centre of gravity.

The modular construction allows to create multiple combinations, with capacity of load in setting tridem until 48 Tm, using only 2 types of crossbow: a big advantage for the manufacturer of the trailer, that can do the composition of the kits deacuerdo to his requirements, optimising his warehouse and facilitating the estión of spare parts and technical assistance, what simplifies to a large extent the use of silenblocks in all the articulations.

Hydrokey: The suspension oleodinámica classical with the touch ADR

The arrival of the oleodinámica to the suspesiones of agricultural trailers, joined to the increase of available power in the agricultural tractors, has changed radically the design of the agricultural machinery. In the panorama of the oleohidráulica classical, the product Geplasmetal distinguishes by his original structure, the ‘frame K'. HydrOK Uses a transversal stabilizer for the strength generated in the curves; an important appearance taking into account that the greater part of the vehicles that mount these suspensions have diagram of setting type tandem or tridem and with tyres of low pressesure and big dimensions.

The behaviour under way is safe and reliable thanks to the combination of the suspension with the axles Black Bull, constituting an effective integral system to combine with the chassis of the trailer, designed to reduce the concentration of effort on east.

Hydrosafe, the hygiene in the field

Hydrosafe Is a suspension of independent wheels with hydraulics stabilisation. The big route of the independent arms does that the weight of the trailer distribute always properly on all the wheels of the vehicle, even in presence of strong irregularities in the terrain, so that the course is always safe and avoids the damage on the terrain to seed.

The towed of the vehicle is easier in any type of condition, and with a saving of wear of tyres and consumption of fuel. The reactions of the trailer on the tractor are lower, with fewer efforts on the stick and a more comfortable driving even to speed relatively high. The disposal of the hydraulics cylinders under the crossbars of the frame and no to the sides, allows to realizar the chassis of the trailer until 200 mm wider that with a traditional hydraulics suspension, improving the stability even with tyres of big width.
