Introduction
SAME Explorer 80C Crawler Tractor
The SAME Explorer 80C is an agricultural crawler tractor designed for specialized field operations. Part of the Explorer series, this machine is engineered to provide stability and traction in challenging terrains where wheeled tractors may face limitations.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a 4-cylinder, air-cooled SAME 1000.4A diesel engine. With a displacement of 4.0 liters (244 cubic inches), it produces 80 hp (59.7 kW) at a rated speed of 2500 RPM. The engine configuration utilizes a bore and stroke of 105 x 115 mm, providing reliable power for demanding agricultural tasks.
Transmission and Drive
The Explorer 80C features a mechanical crawler drive system. It is equipped with a shuttle transmission offering 8 forward and 8 reverse gears, organized into four gears across two ranges. Power is managed through a 304.8 mm mechanical organic disc clutch. Final drive is achieved via spur gears, and the machine is steered using band brakes.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system operates at a pressure of 2538 psi (175.0 bar) with a pump flow capacity of 10.6 gpm (40.1 lpm), supporting three auxiliary valves. The rear hitch is a Category II type featuring top-link draft sensing, capable of lifting 6393 lbs (2899 kg) at the hitch ends. The rear PTO is independent, providing dual speeds of 540 and 1000 RPM through a wet disc clutch system.
Dimensions and Undercarriage
The tractor rests on 15.7-inch tracks, which distribute its 9259 lbs (4199 kg) operating weight to reduce ground pressure. It features a wheelbase of 64.8 inches (164 cm). The operator station is protected by a four-post Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS).
Conclusion
The SAME Explorer 80C is a dedicated crawler tractor suited for agricultural environments requiring high traction and low ground compaction. Its mechanical simplicity and robust design make it appropriate for heavy-duty cultivation and field work in specialized conditions.
