Harriston HRT Series Self-Propelled Tracked Rotary Tillers: Boost Farming Efficiency with Advanced Technology
In modern agriculture, efficient soil preparation is vital for maximizing crop yields. Self-propelled tracked rotary tillers have become essential tools, offering superior maneuverability, stability, and tilling performance—especially in challenging terrains. Harriston Group, a leader in agricultural machinery, introduces its HRT series self-propelled tracked rotary tillers—engineered to meet diverse farming needs with precision and power.
Harriston HRT Series: A Range for Every Farming Need
The HRT series includes multiple models, each tailored to different farm sizes, soil conditions, and tillage requirements. Here’s a deep dive into key models:
1. HRT-1GZL-120 (35HP)
Ideal for small to medium-sized farms, this model features a 35HP engine (delivering 24kW of power) and a rotate speed of 2300r/min. Its compact dimensions (2850×1350×1420 mm) and mechanical 6-speed transmission ensure easy maneuvering in tight spaces. The three-point suspension system stabilizes the rotary tiller, making it perfect for lighter tillage tasks (e.g., vegetable plots or small cash crop farms).
2. HRT-1GZL-140 (50HP)
Stepping up for more demanding jobs, the HRT-1GZL-140 boasts a 50HP engine (36.76kW power). It uses HST hydraulic 5-speed transmission for smooth operation and offers a 140cm working width (covering more ground per pass). With a 355mm minimum ground clearance, it navigates uneven terrain with ease—ideal for medium-scale farms or tougher soil conditions.
3. HRT-102HP-230 (102HP)
Built for large-scale farming, the HRT-102HP-230 delivers robust performance with a 102HP engine (75kW power). Its HST hydraulic 5-speed transmission and 230cm working width enable rapid soil preparation over extensive areas. Weighing 4633kg, it balances stability and power, with a KJ1/KT1/S245 blade model for thorough tilling (perfect for commercial farms or large plots).
4. HRT-1GZL-230 (120HP)
The series’ most powerful model, the HRT-1GZL-230, features a 120HP engine (88.2kW) and a 230cm working width. Its HST hydraulic transmission ensures seamless speed adjustment, while its heavy-duty design (4935kg weight) provides stability during intensive tilling. It excels in large commercial farms, plantations, or projects requiring deep soil cultivation.
Core Advantages of Harriston Self-Propelled Tracked Rotary Tillers
What makes the HRT series stand out in agricultural machinery?
Tracked Design for Superior Traction: Rubber tracks (e.g., 350×90×38 for HRT-1GZL-120, 550×90×56 for HRT-102HP-230) provide excellent grip on wet/muddy/hilly terrain—reducing soil compaction and outperforming wheeled tillers in tough conditions.
Powerful & Efficient Engines: Ranging from 35HP to 120HP, engines deliver instant torque for efficient tilling (even in hard-packed soil) while optimizing fuel efficiency.
Advanced Transmission Systems: Choose between mechanical transmission (precise control for light tasks) or HST (Hydrostatic Transmission) (smooth speed adjustment for heavy-duty work)—enhancing operator comfort and productivity.
Precision Tilling Performance: Working widths up to 230cm and specialized blades (e.g., IT195, KJ1/KT1/S245) ensure even soil breakup, residue incorporation, and ideal seedbed creation for better germination.
Versatility Across Applications: Suited for vegetable farms, orchards, grain production, and more—adapting to seedbed preparation, weed control, and soil aeration.
Ideal Applications
Harriston’s tillers excel in diverse agricultural scenarios:
Smallholder Farms: HRT-1GZL-120 for backyard gardens or small cash crop plots.
