Schäffer will show its new articulated telescopic wheel loader, the 6680T, at Lamma 2016. The complete redesign of this key part of the Schäffer portfolio delivers new levels of manoeuvrability and economy.
With a working weight of 5.6t to 6.3t, the new 6680T is ideal for changing agricultural demands, such as bale stacking at higher levels and loading large mixer wagons.
The drive has been completely updated with a 20 per cent increase in thrust power by. As well as new axles, the High Traction Force (HTF) drive system also contains a high-performance variable displacement pump with a higher operating pressure and improved efficiency.
The new loader is driven by a new-generation 75hp Deutz turbo diesel engine that complies with the Stage IIIB emission standard. It uses a diesel oxidation catalyst to eliminate the need for a diesel particle filter. Because all the components in the hydrostatic drive are perfectly matched to each other, the fuel consumption is converted into performance economically and effectively. With driving speed up to 35km/hr the 6680T can move swiftly between tasks.
The maintenance-free articulated steering makes the loader more manoeuvrable than any front loader tractor. The inner turning circle is only 1.75m, and the rear swing axle provides excellent ground following and stability.
The maximum lifting height of the new telescopic wheel loader is 4.90m. The telescopic arm contains Ferro-Form sliding elements. In contrast to other, more usual plastic elements, this material is very low-wear, and there is no need for constant lubricating.
The 6880T sets new standards in its class in terms of driving ergonomics, space and all-round visibility. It uses the SCV (silence/comfort/view) cab that’s otherwise only seen on the larger models.
