Jumbo / Torro


Unique power train

Drive elements that are used on mountain terrain and with powerful tractors must meet high standards. In the new Pöttinger Test Centre (TIZ) the drive elements are tested according to the most demanding working conditions possible. High torque protection is a special feature of Pöttinger drive technology.

JUMBO transmission scheme

The JUMBO and TORRO silage trailers are driven by a two-way wide angle drive shaft (p.t.o. shaft speed 1000 rpm.). The integrated cam clutch coupling activates immediately if overload occurs. After speed has been reduced, the coupling restores the original power train. The torque protection is an impressive 2100 Nm, which corresponds to a peak performance of almost 299 hp (220 kW).

Inlet gear

The robust bevel gear unit is designed for high tractor power. The inlet gear splits the power flow. Power train A leads from the gear unit via a bevel gear running in an oil bath on to the loading rotor and then to the pickup.
Power train B leads from the gear unit to the beater rotors. The connecting shafts are simply plugged in and are therefore easy to dismantle.

Rotor gear

The rotor gear is an oversized bevel gear unit. The enclosed gear unit, running in an oil bath, is maintenance free. The drive system uses a floating axle with fine toothing. The rotor transmission is mounted outside on the rotor shaft, with the ideal bearing spacing on the rotor (less bending stress). The heavy-duty nodular iron gear unit weighs a robust 352.7 lbs / 160 kg.

Beater rotor gear

The beater rotor drive transmission is protected and on the right-hand side of the trailer. Two sturdy angular gear units and a chain transmit the power to the beater rotors. The drive shaft is secured with a cam clutch coupling with 1200 Nm.

Scraper floor gear

The scraper floor gear for the JUMBO range is located centrally and drives both sides of the scraper floor.

10 good reasons for a silage wagon from Pöttinger

  1. The Pöttinger silage trailer has reached a new dimension in power, transport capacity and cutting quality.
  2. The tractor has developed greatly as regards productivity, multifunctionality and convenience.
  3. The trend towards repeat cropping has caused a lower swath weight => this is ideal for silage trailer procedure.
  4. Pöttinger strategy: Silage with a good structure is easier to digest.
  5. Powerful one-man unit.
  6. Lower investment requirement, less manpower and simpler labour organisation.
  7. Optimum procedural flexibility for different cropping areas, distances between fields and farm, and for mixed silage.
  8. Lower energy requirement and therefore lower diesel consumption for harvesting, for example, 500 hp instead of 800 hp; 1 gallon of diesel per acre / 10 litres of diesel per hectare instead of 1.7 gallons / 16 litres.
  9. Under most working conditions the Pöttinger silage trailer displays excellent cost effectiveness.
  10. Pöttinger silage trailers are ISOBUS-compatible. ISOBUS standardises machine and equipment settings for different processes.
