Introduction
Bukh D-45 Agricultural Tractor
The Bukh D-45 is an agricultural tractor manufactured in Denmark between 1958 and 1960. Designed for general farm utility, this two-wheel drive model reflects the engineering standards of its era.
Engine and Performance
The D-45 is powered by the Bukh 3EV100, a three-cylinder, liquid-cooled diesel engine. With a displacement of 3.1 liters (186.9 cubic inches) and a bore/stroke ratio of 100 x 130 mm, the engine delivers 45 horsepower (33.6 kW) at a rated speed of 1800 RPM, providing sufficient torque for standard field operations.
Transmission and Power Take-Off
The mechanical transmission system features nine forward gears and two reverse gears, allowing for a range of operating speeds suited to various agricultural implements. The tractor is equipped with a rear power take-off (PTO) operating at a standard speed of 540 RPM to drive auxiliary equipment.
Mechanical Configuration
This model is built with a two-wheel drive chassis configuration. Its design prioritizes simplicity and mechanical accessibility, consistent with the requirements of mid-century agricultural machinery.
Conclusion
The Bukh D-45 serves as a functional utility tractor for small to medium-sized agricultural tasks. Its combination of a 45-horsepower engine and a multi-speed transmission makes it a representative example of Danish tractor manufacturing from the late 1950s.
