Nuovo capitolo dedicato dal marchio emiliano al suo specialista del lavoro in vigna e in frutteto per eccellenza, costantemente sugli allori grazie al cospicuo assortimento di modelli e di configurazioni. omplice la necessità di adeguare i propulsori alle nuove normative sulle emissioni, i tecnici di Reggio Emilia hanno dato vita ai Rex 4, una gamma di trattori formata da modelli profondamente rigenerati nel look e nei contenuti. Tutte macchine che rispecchiano assolutamente la visione di casa Landini nei confronti dei trattori specializzati del futuro. Ribadendo e accentuando la propria vocazione altamente specialistica, la nuova serie Rex 4 si propone con un'offerta ancora più ampia e differenziata. La serie Rex 4 debutta con quattro modelli: F, GT, GE e V (Frutteto, Larga, Ribassata e Vigneto), a cui si aggiungono diverse varianti e al-

lestimenti per una personalizzazione decisamente più spinta. Fatta eccezione per il modello GE, tutti gli altri mezzi sono disponibili con la cabina. Il propulsore è Deutz. E proprio la cabina è uno degli elementi di novità di questa serie, visto che è stata notevolmente migliorata nell'estetica e nell'ergonomia rispetto alla precedente gamma. Adesso l'operatore ha tutti i comandi a portata di mano, disposti su un tunnel centrale appiattito e ad alta visibilità anteriore. Inoltre, per l'impiego nella distribuzione di agrofarmaci, la cabina dei nuovi Rex 4 è disponibile con l'opzione di protezione categoria 4, che garantisce la totale sicurezza dell'operatore in un ambiente pressu-

rizzato e controllato da più sensori. Ma in realtà è la motorizzazione il vero fiore all'occhiello di questa serie: quattro cilindri Deutz T ier 4 lnterim da 2,9 litri TCD L4 con dispositivo engine memo switch, in grado di memorizzare il numero di giri del motore. Le potenze massime vanno dai 70 ai 111 cavalli (sono 6 i modelli per ogni versione). Trasmissione con inversore. Un'altra importantissima novità è data dalla trasmissione Argo Tractors, che è dotata di un inversore meccanico o idraulico e di 4 marce per 3 gamme con possibilità di aggiungere due opzioni: Hi-Lo e High-Medium-Low, oltre naturalmente al super riduttore. Scusate se è poco. La nuova serie Rex 4 offre ampie possibilità di scelta anche nella presa di forza (disponibile in versione meccanica o idraulica) in funzione dell'inversore, e con due o quattro regimi di velocità: 540, 540 Eco, 1000 e 1000 Eco. Limpianto idraulico è disponibile con una pompa doppia 55+30
litri/minuto (60+30 litri/minuto nella versione GT) o con una pompa tripla 25+55+30 litri/minuto nelle versioni cabinate e si completa con distributori ventrali, selettore di flusso e divisore di flusso (optional). Assale anteriore sospeso. A prescindere dal fatto che siano macchine a 2 o a 4 ruote motrici, dotate di pneumatici posteriori da 24" e 28" (per la versione GT addirittura 30"), grazie alle dimensioni ridotte e ad un angolo di sterzata di 55 gradi, i nuovi Rex 4 offrono una maneggevolezza impressionante. Unica nel suo genere. Se non bastasse, per agevolare la sterzata, la versione da vigneto dispone di un apposito assale High Pivot con basculamento maggiorato. Invece, per quel che riguarda l'assale anteriore dei modelli F e GT, oltre alla versione rigida con innesto 4WD e bloccaggio del differenziale elettro-idraulico, per la prima volta su queste macchine è stato introdotto un sistema di sospensione centrale. Ovviamente, made in Argo Tractors. 1Mezzi Agricoli -

AL CIERRE
Argo Tractors inauguró su nueva filial en España La empresa AgriArgo Ibérica, del Grupo Argo Tractors, dedicada a la producción y comercialización de tractores Landini y McCormick, inauguró oficialmente, el pasado 29 de septiembre, sus nuevas instalaciones centrales, ubicadas en Villamarciel (Valladolid), desde las que pretende continuar la actividad llevada a cabo en su anterior sede y añadir nuevos servicios que potencien su relación con los clientes.
E
l evento también sirvió para homenajear, por sus años de dedicación a la empresa, a Antonio Esteve, Administrador de Agriargo Ibérica y para anunciar a la red de concesionarios el nombramiento de Andrés Moradas como nuevo Director General, de Jaime Bellostas como Director Comercial y demás miembros del nuevo equipo de AgriArgo. En la inauguración participaron destacados directivos del Grupo Argo Tractors como Simeone Morra y el Responsable de Desarrollo de Negocios, Franco Artoni, además de miembros de la política como el Presidente de la Diputación de Valladolid, Jesús Julio Carnero y el Alcalde en funciones de Tordesillas, Cayo Martín, y el Secretario General de Ansemat, Ignacio Ruiz. Las nuevas instalaciones, ubicadas en la Autovía A-62, salida 142 de Villamarciel, cuentan con un área total de 6
hectáreas, de las cuales aproximadamente 2.300 m2 son cubiertos. La edificación incluye un aula de formación teórica, un taller para la formación práctica, oficinas de recepción y ventas, oficinas generales en el piso superior, una cafetería, zona de exposición de tractores de las dos marcas y almacén. En la parte exterior se ha habilitado un circuito de asfalto, un campo de pruebas y unas gradas pensadas para las demostraciones a los clientes. El proyecto fue posible gracias a una inversión total de tres millones de euros y requirió la ampliación de 8 nuevos puestos de trabajo. Entre los nuevos servicios que ofrece AgriArgo con el traslado a estas instalaciones se encuadra la impartición de cursos formativos para concesionarios, reforzados con una nueva página web destinada a informar de los cursos, la expo-
sición permanente de la gama de sus tractores, la organización de eventos para demostraciones de los tractores en los terrenos colindantes, etc. Según los responsables de la empresa, la decisión de establecerse en Castilla y León viene dada por el largo recorrido en tractores de alta potencia que tiene esta comunidad autónoma, además de situarse más próximos a la mayor parte de la red de concesionarios. Su objetivo es ofrecer y potenciar la posibilidad, tanto a distribuidores como a clientes, de tener un contacto directo con los tractores por medio de jornadas de puertas abiertas y una mejor formación técnica y comercial del sector. Aprovechando la presencia de sus concesionarios, los responsables del evento presentaron tres nuevas series de tractores del grupo: la renovada serie de tractores especializados Landini Rex 4, la serie McCormick X8 de entre 264 CV y 310 CV con transmisión continua de cuatro etapas, y la serie McCormick X6 VT-Drive, con transmisión de variación continua de 3 etapas.n
