Bogie suspended rollers for CTL track frames

Track component supplier Berco has developed a track frame for larger capacity compact tracked loaders that uses a bogie system to suspend the bottom rollers. Initially targeting machines in the 4.3-5.2 tonne sector, with 84-100hp, the track frame has a five-roller design.

Track component supplier 2653 Berco has developed a track frame for larger capacity compact tracked loaders that uses a bogie system to suspend the bottom rollers. Initially targeting machines in the 4.3-5.2 tonne sector, with 84-100hp, the track frame has a five-roller design. However a four-roller frame for smaller models is also planned. The bogie system allows the bottom rollers to follow the contours of the ground, providing a smoother ride for the operator and prolonging rubber track operating life.
