What does a super tractor mean with the ability to cultivate 4,000 acres of land a day? Even if the price is as high as 20 million, the fuel cost is as high as 200 yuan per day, such a machine is also an important equipment of a large country. With the rise of China's domestic heavy tractors, this equipment has become a truly important piece of equipment in the agricultural field.
This heavy tractor refers to a large tractor of more than 147 kilowatts. However, this super tractor BigBud16V-747 was born in the 70s of the last century, and the 16-cylinder diesel engine used must have a minimum horsepower of 800 horsepower, and its exhaust emissions have exceeded the tolerable lower limit of China's environmental regulations. Therefore, this super tractor is almost unusable in China, especially the terrain of China is not suitable for such a super-large tractor.
The BigBud747 was designed to reclaim a land full of rocks that would take years to reclaim using a regular tractor, so the farmer approached BigBud and built a super tractor with tires as tall as a floor.
The 50-ton super tractor works very efficiently, taking only 1 hour to complete the workload of two ordinary large tractors in 24 hours. Although expensive to operate and maintain, modifications to the powertrain improved fuel efficiency and controlled harmful components in the exhaust gases, allowing the supertractor to be put back on farms.
As technology advances, supermachines like the BigBud16V-747 may be revived, more advanced machines will be available, and perhaps in the near future, people will no longer need to manually operate and control tractors when farming.
