INNOVATIVE AND EVEN LARGER The market demand for higher capacity applicators for liquid slurry injecting and dry-manure spreading has resulted in the new Vredo VT5518 Multi-purpose Trac vehicle in both two and three axle configurations. This new Trac has a midship installed Deutz 16 liter 544HP engine together with the all new Vredo VVT600 CVT transmission. The 5518 enjoys all round suspension, an all wheel steering and heavy duty axles with external disc brakes. The latest generation of agricultural tyres are able to be fitted on this new Trac. The machine also has a flat loading platform,...

VREDO VARIABLE TRANSMISSION Vredo VVT600 Owing to the lack of a suitable CVT transmission available in the market for its new Trac, Vredo took the decision to design its new VVT600 transmission entirely in-house. The newly developed Vredo Continious Variable Transmission, VVT600, is state of the art technology for maximum tractive effort, stepless speed adjustment and lowest fuel consumption in the industry. Combining the unique flexibility of the hydrostatic principle with the high effectiveness of mechanical power transmission, we created a high efficiency and very functional transmission...

MACHINE CONFIGURATIONS The Vredo Slurry System The two axle VT5518-2 carries a lightweight polyester slurry tank of 21.000 liter, the three axle VT5518 -3 carries a 32.000 liter tank and is capable to take a full trailer truck-load in one go. The pump-slicer unit is positioned at the front of the machine, which gives a perfect view from the cab of the reload operation from the pit, container or tanker. The 12.000 liter/min positive displament slurry pump in combination with the 10 inch reloading arm enables maximum capacity and flexibility under all circumstances. The Vredo slicing filter...

MACHINE CONFIGURATIONS The Vredo Sugarbeet transportbox Owing the multi-purpose chassis design, the VT5518 is capable of working with all kinds of systems, e.g. transport boxes for all types of materials: sugar-beets, potatoes, grains, etc. Owing to the powerful hydraulic system for external use, every type of box can be supplied with the correct flow and pressure of oil. The Vredo Wood-chipper The VT5518 has an optional full horsepower mechanical shiftable PTO to the rear of the machine. The optional front PTO is a direct drive from the engine. Both PTO’s offer the possibility to drive,...

The Deutz TCD 16.0 V8 engine has a very compact design in 90 degrees V version. The engine built according to Stage 3B/Tier 4 Interim emission specification has a modular exhaust after treatment system (EAT) with SCR technology. The powerful Common Rail injection system and the electronic engine control(EMR4) with intelligent link to the VVT600 CVT transmission control, ensure optimum engine performance at low fuel consumption. The VVT600 CVT transmission is built out of two main parts: the mechanical gearbox with planetary gearssets and couplings and the standard hydrostatic pump and...

STEERING & WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION Crab steering The serial crab steering enables the machine to drive with all four tires along each other, for mininal ground compaction to save the soil. Also the four wheel steer gives the machine an excellent manoeuvrability on the farm, during transport and in the field. Perfect weight distribution The machine is designed for an optimum weight distribution over front and rear axle, so that the lowest possible tyre inflation pressure can be used on all four or six wheels. The cab is also placed far to the front so that the implement systems can be optimally...
