Kubota DC60 Combine Harvester Rubber Track/Rubber Crawler/Rubber Track

An agricultural belt is a type of belt that is used in various agricultural machinery to transmit power from the engine to the different working parts of the machinery. Agricultural belts are important components of agricultural machinery and play a crucial role in the proper functioning of the machinery. The track is a flexible chain around the drive wheel, roadwheel, induction wheel and support wheel driven by the drive wheel.The track consists of a track plate and a track pin.The track pin connects each track plate to form a track link.There are holes at both ends of the track board to prevent the track from falling off, and there are strengthening anti-skid bars (referred to as the pattern) on the side that contacts the ground to improve the firmness of the track board and the adhesion between the track and the ground.

 

Use environment of rub ber track

1.The use temperature of rubber tracks is generally between - 25 ~ +55℃. 2.Chemicals, oil, salt of sea water will accelerate the aging of the track, in such an environment after use to clean the track. 3.The road surface with sharp protrusions (such as steel bars, stones, etc.) will lead to rubber track trauma.

The maintenance of rubber tracks

1.Please often check the tightness of the tracks, in accordance with the requirements of the operation manual, but tight, but loose. 2.Remove mud, grass, stones and foreign matter from track at any time. 3.Do not pollute the tracks with oil, especially when filling fuel or lubricating the transmission chain with oil, protective measures should be taken for rubber tracks, such as covering the tracks with plastic sheets. 4.Ensure the normal operation of each auxiliary parts between the track, wear serious to be replaced in time, this is the basic condition of the normal work of the track. 5.When the track is stored for a long time, the dirt and debris should be washed away and dried, and the track should be stored on overhead.

Applications of Agricultural Belt in Agricultural Machinery:

• Tractor power transmission system:

  The agricultural belt is mainly used in the PTO (Power Take-Off) section of the tractor to connect the tractor with external farming tools such as plows, seed drills, harvesters, crushers, water pumps, and more.

• Combine Harvester:

  The agricultural belt is used in the main transmission system to transfer power from the engine to the thresher drum, cutter bar, cleaning system, and other moving parts.

• Tillage machinery:

  Agricultural belts are used in tillage machinery such as rotary tillers, plows, deep tillers, etc. to transmit the power of the tractor to the working parts of the tillage machinery.

• Irrigation equipment:

  In power-driven water pumps and rotating sprinkler systems, the agricultural belt transfers power from the tractor to the pump or other driving components.

• Feed processing machinery:

  In feed mixers, forage choppers, and other equipment, the agricultural belt is used to drive mixing, cutting, and other functional modules.

Here is a table that lists some of the brands and models of agricultural machinery that the Kubota DC60 combine harvester rubber track/ rubber crawler/ rubber track can adapt to: In addition to agricultural belts, we also offer other agricultural machinery parts such as agricultural chains, agricultural gearboxes, pulleys, sprockets, couplings, PTO shafts, concaves, etc. You can find all the agricultural machinery parts you need from us. Signs indicating the need for Agricultural Belt replacement:

• Obvious signs of wear:

  Check the surface of the agricultural belt and replace it if you see cracks, frayed edges, thinning, rubber block shedding, or exposing fabric layers. These signs indicate that the agricultural belt is severely worn, and its strength and stability are significantly reduced.

• Looseness:

  The agricultural belt should run in an appropriate and tightened state. If you find that the agricultural belt is too loose, or if the belt length cannot maintain the original tension after continuous use for some time, the belt has lost its elasticity and tension and needs replacement.

• Slipping:

  When the agricultural machinery is working, if you hear a sharp whistling sound at the agricultural belt, or if you feel a decrease in power output and a decrease in speed, it may be due to slipping of the agricultural belt. Check the tension and friction force of the belt. If necessary, replace it.

• Heating:

  A normal agricultural belt will have a slight temperature rise, but if it feels very hot or even burning when touched, the belt may have suffered from over-fatigue, internal structure damage, or excessive tension accumulation. Such conditions can accelerate the aging and damage of the belt and should be stopped immediately, checked, and replaced.

• Strange odor or burning marks:

  If you smell burnt rubber or see melting or scorch marks on the agricultural belt, it means that the belt is in a serious overload state, and partial or complete damage may have occurred. You must replace it immediately.

• Unusual vibration or noise:

  When the agricultural belt fails or is about to fail, it may cause additional vibration or noise during machine operation. This is due to unstable transmission, and you should stop the machine to check the reason and replace the problematic agricultural belt.

How to choose the right Agricultural Belt:

• Belt type:

  V-belts (also known as triangular belts) are commonly used in agricultural machinery. According to different width and thickness, there are multiple models such as A, B, C, D, etc. When selecting the belt, it should be consistent with the model of the original transmission belt or refer to the specifications provided by the agricultural machinery manufacturer.

• Length:

  Measure or calculate the accurate length of the required agricultural belt according to the agricultural machinery manual to ensure that the new belt can be installed smoothly and maintain an appropriate tension.

• Horsepower/power requirements:

  The agricultural belt needs to bear the engine output power of the agricultural machinery, so ensure that the rated power of the new belt is greater than or equal to the power requirement of the transmission system.

• Material:

  Agricultural belts made of high-quality rubber blends have better wear resistance, high-temperature resistance, oil resistance, and aging resistance.

• Belt pulley groove size:

  The agricultural belt must be compatible with the groove width and depth of the belt pulley to ensure good meshing and avoid slippage or premature wear.
