Since tracks were introduced to agriculture, their makers have commonly claimed reduced compaction and enhanced traction compared to wheeled equipment. In recent years, tire technology has come a long way in leveling the playing field in both regards.
The smoother rides and ability to drive wheeled machines on roads, combined with the improved traction, pushed track equipment to the side of the field. In recent years, track tractors have made a comeback, with improved suspension and rubber cleats replacing steel and reducing the need for transport between fields.
Although traction with track vehicles no longer offered a significant advantage over wheeled equipment, tracks' impact on soil compaction did. Spreading out the weight of the tractor and its load over a longer footprint became a major competitive feature as researchers identified yield loss due to compaction.
In response to grower concerns, tire companies introduced competitive technology. Size, width and load carrying capacity have all increased significantly to increase the footprint and spread out the load while maintaining traction.
However, he pointed out that footprint alone can be deceiving."While the result may be only six psi across the total footprint, the pressure actually increases at the drive wheels and bogey wheels."
We compared that with properly designed new radial tires like those with Michelin Ultraflex technologies. How well the casing deflects and spreads the footprint determines how much pressure is on the footprint. He noted that the industry has reached the point with some tires where one psi in the tire equals one psi on the ground, consistent across the footprint. He points to Michelin AxioBibs as having that 1:1 ratio.
The AxioBib represented a new tire category in 2006 with the increased flexion (IF) design that allowed the sidewalls to flex more than other radials, thereby increasing the footprint. Firestone introduced its first IF tires (AD2 technology) in 2010. Michelin introduced very high flexion (VF) SprayBib VF tires that same year. They allowed for a decrease of air pressure of up to 40 percent compared to a standard tire of the same size.
Meanwhile, Goodyear expanded its Optitrac radial farm tire line with the R+ advanced flexion design. The European-originated R+ design allows field speed dependant load increases that can be more than offered by IF and VF designs. And so the race for superior and competitive tire technology will continue as load, speed, compaction and cost concerns all continue to increase.

expecting info, got a music video.....
Quadtrac ,steiger,9rx,9rt,9r and tier 9
Thanks. Visually rich overview video, shows different key aspects of wheel / tracks systems👍
More with detailed comparison to come?
Actually, I think it varies on location, taste, & cost.
She's nice.
Very kind presentation.
THX..Hinda ^^;
힌다..
훌륭해요
친절한 설명 고마워요..
From S.Korea
What about logging equipment on skiders
I just have my Wide Base loaded with rubber compound so even punctured they never go flat.
wow,,the compound pneumatic,,,a complex wheel,,i never saw this!!
Merci pour cette vidéo beau matériel 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Merci pour les bons mots.
thanks for explaining that all to me its so clear now NOT BOT NOT !!!!!
Thanks. This is another interesting video:

So which one is better? Wheels or tracks? This video explained nothing...
Great

Where they sell these product
You can find information about convensional track systems on the sites of: Camso, Soucy Track, Zuidberg
Hello.sir
tracks,obviously,but only for mud or sand,,,have a better surface of traction,,,the surface is a line and rectanfular surface.But trucks for speed are not the best in this case,wheels,that are designed for speed
Speed is not the main thing for a tractor. It's pulling force has the main importance.
Obviously the traction and pulling force is the main importance,,,I agree.
@@TractorLab in Europe tractors are regularly on the road and tracks hate the road even when its general transport let alone a loaded grain trailer. and speed is important tractors can easily reach 60 - 70 km/h these days tracked tractors are limited to 40.
superbe video mais le pneu mitas, il est aussi valable que des chenilles sur la route, bonjour l'usure...
Merci

The music sucks
You are not srsly tellivg me that a normal sized wheel and a track of the same size have the same traction
What you mean, when say "normal sized wheel and a track of the same size"? This is an incorrect statement. What dimension is the same or equal?
TractorLab when you campare standard track for example one placed on 710/75/r42 with a wider or higher tyre (super volume)(high flex low pressure tires are wider than their name suggests since they bend outwards a lot) than thats not a good camparison.Tracks give you the same width as tires while still being the same size(vehicle-wise)(aside from possibly obstructing the front) attachment).
Ok! Agree. The same width track has larger footprint area then tyre and larger traction at the same slip. But traction rise and footprint growth is not proportional. At the same time high flex low pressure tires have exelent performance:

Where do u get all the information from?
See description, please.

What you put in the description should have been in the video. Great info. Terrible video.
Hi. What about LSW tires from Goodyear?!
Tracks Vs Tires - 5 reasons why LSW tires are a better choice
ruclips.net/video/o9GuGMsVef4/видео.html
I saw this videos.
Its necessary to adjust flotation pressure to make footprint area constant.
THE BEST TIRES THERE ARE NO DOUT YOUR RITE ON THE NOSE VIKTOR !!!!
the low sidewall desigjn does that it doesent give n bounce like a big sidewall so it stays the same all the time and no bounce either def the best way to go i think !

가격이 얼마나 하는가? how much???
???
I bet track
Ok!
👌👌👌👌👏👏👏👏
doesn't show me jack shiiittttttt
:-(

First
Ok!
Whats with the annoying techno shit?
Nice Dirt
