Introduction
ATC 200 Agricultural Crawler Tractor
The ATC 200 is a crawler tractor produced between 1954 and 1956 in Churubusco, Indiana, USA. Designed for agricultural operations requiring high traction, this machine belongs to the 200/300 series and utilizes a tracked drive system to navigate difficult terrain.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a Continental F-140 liquid-cooled, 4-cylinder gasoline engine. It features a displacement of 140 cubic inches (2.3 liters) and operates with a carburetor-based fuel system and an oil bath air cleaner. At a rated engine speed of 1850 RPM, the unit generates 36.5 gross horsepower (27.2 kW).
Transmission and Drive
The drivetrain consists of a gear-type transmission providing 3 forward gears and 1 reverse gear, coupled with a dry disc clutch. Power is transferred to the ground through spur gear final drives. Steering and stopping are managed by contracting band brakes. The tractor is equipped with 10-inch wide tracks to distribute its 4,860 lb (2,204 kg) weight effectively.
Power Take-Off and Hydraulics
An optional rear Power Take-Off (PTO) is available, providing a standard 540 RPM output at an engine speed of 1622 RPM. This feature allows for the operation of various implements, expanding the versatility of the machine for agricultural tasks.
Conclusion
The ATC 200 is a specialized machine suited for agricultural applications where standard wheeled tractors may lack necessary traction. Its robust mechanical configuration and tracked design make it a durable solution for heavy-duty field work and specialized soil conditions.
