The Minsk Tractor Plant has long been a leader in the production of agricultural machinery. During its existence, more than a hundred different models of special vehicles have been produced, designed to solve a wide range of problems. Among the entire range of products, MTZ-3022 tractor deserves special attention as one of the most powerful and high-performance.
Technique from Belarus
The equipment from Belarus is popular not only not in the territory of the former post-Soviet space, but throughout the world. One of its main features is unpretentiousness and endurance. The Belarus-3022 tractor presented by us is endowed with the same qualities.
It is designed to carry out agricultural operations complete with semi-mounted and mounted, as well as trailed working equipment and units. The equipment can be used to drive stationary agricultural equipment. High efficiency and productivity during MTZ-3022 operation in tandem with loading and unloading mechanisms are also noted.
Machines are often included in special machine-transport complexes, which allows them to be used in forestry, in solving problems of public utilities, at construction sites and in other spheres of human activity.
Design features
The presented tractor belongs to the fifth traction class and stands on a par with such eminent representatives of agricultural machinery as the Terrion ATM 5280 or K-700. The wheel formula of the machine is 4 x 4. As the engine, a modernized German diesel engine is used under the index BF06M1013FC.
The MTZ-3022 tractor is distinguished from other products of tractor engineering by the presence of control posts. They, in turn, consist of a duplicated clutch control structure, brake system and fuel supply mechanism. The design also included an additional steering column and swivel seat. All this assumed and determined the ability of the tractor for continuous operation in reverse mode.
The MTZ-3022 model can work on soils with different bearing capacity, thanks to a wide range of wheel ballasting (you can install a special ballast or fill tires with liquid), as well as the possibility of mounting wheels of different sizes.
Specifications
MTZ-3022 technical specifications allow it to be used for the operational solution of problems in various industries and construction. Thanks to its operational qualities, the tractor stands out on the world stage. This is facilitated by:
- overall dimensions - 6 100 x 2 630 x 3 150 mm;
- wheelbase width - 2 960 mm;
- ground clearance - 450 mm;
- maximum load capacity - 10 tons;
- operational weight - 11.5 tons, full - 18 tons;
- optimal fuel consumption - 249 g / kW * h;
- fuel tank capacity - 500 liters.
The presented technical characteristics of the tractor can be significantly improved by installing various attachments, for example, a power take-off shaft. One of the features of the MTZ-3022 tractor is the fact that the creeper can be installed both at the rear and in front of the machine.
Engine
On this series of tractors there is an improved diesel power plant of the German company Deutz under the index BF06M1013FC. In Russia, this motor is better known as the S40E 8.7 LTA M146 with a turbocharger and a capacity of 300 horsepower.
The power plant is 4-stroke with a horizontal arrangement of six working cylinders, liquid cooling and direct injection system. A similar unit is installed in many types of equipment. In MTZ-3022, the engine has certain technical characteristics given in the article.
The power plant provides the tractor with a speed of 40 km / h when moving forward and 20 km / h in reverse. It is worth highlighting its design features:
- Cast cylinder head and crankcase made of impact resistant cast iron.
- The presence of an injector pump for each cylinder.
- Forged crankshaft with counterweights.
- Full-flow oil filter in the form of a cartridge.
- Bimetal camshaft bearings.
The power plant generator generates 12 V electricity, 24 watts. The unit is started by means of an electric starter 12 V / 24 W. Engine power is enough for its use as a part of caterpillar and drilling equipment. The motor is also installed in excavators, loaders, combines.
Hydraulic system
To control interchangeable work equipment, the tractor is equipped with a hydraulic system based on the Bosch-Rexroth axial plunger pump. It is universal, control is carried out using the joystick. The hydromechanism provides power, positional, as well as mixed control over the technology of processing the earth's surface.
In the hydromechanism installed on MTZ-3022, the characteristics are increased by a 4-section type distributor. It has an electro-hydraulic control system equipped with a programming function, as well as a ZNU and PNU control regulator. The structure of the named system includes 4 pairs of terminals, which are supplemented by the function of controlling the fluid supply.
Modifications
The MTZ-3022 tractor has many modified models. However, among their total number, two main series can be distinguished - MTZ-3022V and MTZ-3022DC.1. The first is practically no different from the original car. But this tractor is equipped with a reversing control station, which is very useful for long-term operations.
Modification MTZ-3022 DTs.1. Neither in appearance nor in engine is any different from the standard model. But it implements the possibility of doubling the wheels to increase the patency of the car. This model of agricultural machinery is especially in demand in regions where waterlogged and slightly bearing soils prevail.
In general terms, the MTZ-3022 tractor is a functional model that has a number of advantages over its competitors. The closest analogue of the described technique is the MTZ-3022DV model, on which a particularly powerful engine is installed. Among foreign representatives of tractor engineering, the John Deere model has similar characteristics.
