Deere’s anti-vibration CTL undercarriage for better rides

The smoother the ride, the smoother the grade will be at the end. Less vibration also means less operator fatigue, increased productivity, faster speeds, and less bucket spillage.

As a result, John Deere's 333G compact track loader now comes with an anti-vibration undercarriage system as an option. The first line of defence is rubber isolation mounts, which absorb much of the high-frequency vibration and twisting of the machine superstructure. These also extend the life of the track and make repairs easier.

Bogie rollers along the bottom of the undercarriage pair two rollers with a centre-mounted pivot point for larger bumps, holes, and swales. The rocking action of the bogies absorbs the irregularities on the ground rather than transferring them back up through the frame and into the cab when the tracks encounter uneven terrain or crest a hill.

Bogie systems, in addition to bridging irregularities, keep more of the track in contact with the ground, improving traction and lowering overall ground pressure.

To protect the hydrostatic hoses from debris, a new angled steel shield was added. For easier maintenance and less downtime due to potential damage to the hydrostatic hoses, four additional grease points are located in easily accessible areas.

In the United States and Canada, as well as some international markets, the anti-vibration undercarriage system is now available on zig-zag bar tracks on John Deere 333G compact track loader models.

Deere & Company, an American corporation, manufactures agricultural, forestry machinery, and construction as well as diesel engines, heavy equipment drivetrains (axles, transmissions, and gearboxes), and lawn care equipment.

Farmers and independent mechanics are unable to repair broken equipment unless they go through John Deere dealerships because John Deere is adamantly opposed to right-to-repair of its equipment.
