From November 6-10, Trelleborg Tires will introduce its first Agriculture Rubber Track, ART1000, at Italy’s EIMA exhibition, along with a wide selection of products and services designed for modern farming.
Trelleborg’s First Ever Agri Rubber Track
The ART1000 leverages Trelleborg Tires’ technological expertise to bring its first Agriculture Rubber Track designed for high-horsepower machines. The ART1000 optimises vehicle efficiency and performance, providing strength and durability. ART1000 tracks are engineered for the versatility and mobility of farm machinery, regardless of working conditions.
Its track design features advanced tread bars that minimise soil compaction, promoting healthy root growth and nutrient absorption. The self-cleaning capability increases traction and improves ride quality in demanding high-pull applications, maximising overall performance and reducing operating costs. With its high-quality rubber compounds and cutting-edge engineering, ART1000 provides high wear and cut resistance, ensuring durability for rigorous agricultural challenges.
New Technology
Trelleborg Tires will present several technological advancements at Stand B/7, Hall 16. PneuTrac®, a hybrid between a radial agricultural tyre and a track, is designed for smooth navigation in vineyards and orchards. Powered by the “Omega” design sidewall and enhanced PneuTrac® technology, its extended footprint ensures flotation, traction and lateral stability. The tyre has been shown to deliver solid traction even on slippery slopes, typical of wine country. PneuTrac® reduces machine downtime, a critical concern for farmers looking to increase productivity and gain substantial cost savings in fuel, maintenance, and labour.
Adaptive Tyre Management System (ATMS) has engaged in collaboration projects with OEMs to ensure technical and commercial validation. Trelleborg Tires has now provided the so-called “B-sample” to OEMs, which, while not yet certified, represents a step before series industrialisation. Currently, OEMs are testing the solution allowing the user to the real-time data collection such as tyre dynamic load, pressure, and temperature, as well as pressure advice, vehicle and financial performances. These data support decision-making in field operations, including pressure regulation, ballast setup, and other vehicle configurations.
Visitors will discover how the user interface of the desktop app works, showcasing how the ATMS translates data into actionable insights for farmers and fleet managers. Additionally, the ATMS infrastructure reduces operational time and sensor equipment costs in the supply chain through seamless sensor patches, designed and patented for “sensor-ready tyres.” The sensor is designed to guarantee a lifecycle of up to 5,000 hours of uptime or five years, which corresponds to the average tyre lifecycle before replacement.
New Tyres
TM1 ECO POWER tyres are made from 65% recycled and bio-based materials that outperform standard tyres on the road and hard soil. Presented for the first time to the Italian market, this tyre was developed with OE partner Fendt and is for both traditional and electric tractors. Using sustainable engineering, it achieves up to 47% lower rolling resistance, 26% better traction and 3% significant savings in fuel and battery consumption.
TM1000 ProgressiveTraction® tyre range is designed for advanced farming. This tyre, known for winning multiple awards, is specifically made for cutting-edge machinery, offering handling, high load capacity, self-cleaning properties, and providing higher traction.
Trelleborg will also show off its patented agricultural TW rim profile for today’s tractors, combines and harvesters, ensuring easier fitting and proper inflation of low-pressure tyres for enhanced performance.
Visitors will also have a chance to discover the Premium Care Program, which includes an extended warranty for Trelleborg tyres, along with expert support and tailored resources to enhance tyre lifespan and performance. Trelleborg Tires team of experts will be available to explain how the program boosts productivity and ensures smooth operations, while also assisting with on-site sign-ups for immediate access to these valuable benefits.
On November 7 at 2 PM, Trelleborg Tires will host a press conference at Bologna’s EIMA exhibition, in Notturno Hall (Service Center / Block D / 1st floor), to present the ART1000 along with the latest innovations in tyre technology.
