• New 320 ch model.
• Common Rail injection diesel engine, 9 litres, 24 valves
• 40 km km/h Eco transmission for energy-efficient transport
Following the launch of the T8000 range in 2005, which then comprised four tractor models, New Holland has expanded its offering with a new top-of-the-range model, the T8050, which builds on the impressive specifications of the T8000 series.
Increased power
The T8050 model from 320 ch is powered by a 9-litre, 24-valve Common Rail injection diesel engine with redesigned pistons and injectors, delivering increased power, fuel economy and lower emissions. The Tier III-compliant engine is fitted as standard with a reversible fan, which is also available as an option across the entire T8000 range, to maximise performance. With a torque back-up of 56% and a power boost of 34 ch, the T8050 tractor has plenty under the hood! The 270 ch at the PTO allow the most power-hungry equipment to be run with complete confidence.
Customers for the T8050 model can choose from four fully Powershift transmissions, including the new 19 x 4 (40 km km/h Eco) Ultra Command™ transmission, which ensures smooth gear changes without using the clutch pedal, from first to nineteenth gear. The latter makes it possible to save fuel during high-speed road travel and to reduce noise in the cab. The new transmission is presented with the TerraGlide™ front axle suspension, which provides superior ride, traction and control. A front differential lock is fitted as standard on TerraGlide axles.
High-flow hydraulic system
The T8000 Series features the efficient closed-centre load-sensing (CCLS) hydraulic system, ensuring high performance with 166 litres per minute as standard. Customers choosing the MegaFlow™ option will benefit from a flow of up to 282 litres per minute.
Five electro-hydraulic distributors can be installed, and new hydraulic management makes it possible to adjust extension and retraction to precisely control cylinder operation, in addition to flow adjustment.
Effortless control centre
The T8050 tractor is aimed at the contractor and large farm market. The spacious, luxurious cab is fitted with innovative productivity tools common to the T8000 series. The IntelliView II™ monitor, available as an option on the T8050, is part of the control console on the operator's armrest and is connected to the tractor's CAN BUS system. This device can be used to control and monitor systems on compatible equipment via an ISOBUS connection.
An automatic PTO function in the headland management system allows the operator to program the point at which the PTO engages and disengages when the implement is raised or lowered to a specific height.
The T8050 model can be guided with the factory-fitted IntelliSteer™ system, allowing customers to benefit from auto-guidance as part of New Holland's Precision Land Management (PLM) system.
The IntelliSteer™ steering assistant connects to the tractor's hydraulic steering and uses a differential GPS (DGPS) signal or RTK correction to control steering, ensuring pass tracking without the need to intervene on the steering, whether operating in a straight line, on curves, when turning or on slopes.
A pass accuracy of 5 à10 cm (1 to 2 cm with RTK) minimises the number of passes, reducing fuel costs and optimising performance day and night, whatever the weather conditions.
