Схемы. Гидравлические и электрические схемы на модельный ряд установок ГНБ.
Ни для кого не секрет, что зачастую ремонт неисправности техники Вермеер, внезапно проявившейся на машине, занимает минуты и сам по себе довольно прост. НО ТОЛЬКО при условии, что известно, куда лезть и искать ее. Конечно, всегда есть возможность обратиться к специалистам и «влететь» на деньги — и это при условии того, что сама установка уже не новая, и, возможно, в обозримом будущем «попросит» очередного обращения. Поэтому мы решили предложить нашим клиентам схемы электрооборудования и гидроагрегатов для установок ГНБ Вермеер.

The history of Vermeer began when Gary Vermeer modified a farm cart in 1948 by attaching a lifting device to it. The high demand for this invention
eventually led to the creation of the Vermeer Manufacturing Company in Pella, Iowa, USA.
For 60 years, this company has had more than one invention, for example, the world’s first round hay press, wood waste shredder and stump shredder.
Since its inception, the small, one-man, Iowa-based Vermeer business has grown to become a global agricultural, construction, industrial and forestry equipment
corporation.
In 1991, Vermeer introduced the NAVIGATOR line of horizontal directional drilling rigs to the world market, which later served as the fiber optic cable for the
worldwide data superhighway. With a strong leadership position in the trenching equipment industry, Vermeer products are highly sought after by rental companies and other clients in road
construction and mining operations.
At present, Vermeer Manufacturing for the family of HDD rigs has a whole brand portfolio: Navigator — a trademark of the family of HDD rigs, Firestick — drill rods;
Navtec — computer control system for the drilling process; RockFire — rock drilling head; Splinelok is a drill rod coupling mechanism.
Vermeer Corporation is making an impact on the progressive development of the world through the production of high quality equipment for tree maintenance,
agriculture, underground construction, open pit mining, and environmental protection equipment. Highly durable and reliable, this equipment is backed by on-site customer service and technical
support from independent dealers around the world.
SELF-PROPELLED TRACTOR WITH RTX450 TRACTOR STATION
With the addition of the RTX450 to the RTX line of equipment, contractors can choose from Vermeer’s full line of four-track machines to maximize their productivity
in challenging conditions. The RTX450 is offered in three configurations: Normal Duty Axle with 66cm tires or Heavy Duty Axle with 74cm tires and four tracks. The tractor also features the same
controls for all RTX machines.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
The RTX450 with a Tier 4 Final engine has 14% more power (compared to the RT450).
The RTX450 has a class-leading compact turning circle, which allows it to work in confined areas — especially in residential areas.
Vermeer exclusive TrenchSense ™ electronic control system helps maintain control even in the toughest terrains.
The Sauer H1 electronically controlled hydraulic pump provides precise control and power reserve to the travel drive.
SELF-PROPELLED TRACTOR XTS1250
With four innovative steel tracks, you can keep working even when your productivity is threatened by adverse weather conditions and rough terrain. Not only are you
guaranteed stability and flotation — the XTS1250’s energetic traction will overcome the resistance of most difficult terrains.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
Handles virtually any soil thanks to a patent-pending four steel track system and satellite axles with differential locks that distribute weight evenly.
Improved control thanks to remote control attachment controls that pivot with the swivel (for improved visibility) driver’s seat.
Maximum — up to 27,000 lb / 12,247 kg increase in pulling power thanks to the added weight and traction.
Your local Vermeer dealer will provide full service and genuine Vermeer parts.
