Kramer KT557
Kramer quickly made a name for itself as a manufacturer of tractors in the early years of the company's more than 90-year history. In order to build on the original success, machines have been distributed since 2012 under the brand name, Kramer to the agriculture sector via their own dealer network. Over the past five years, the sales network has been steadily expanded both nationally and internationally. The dealer network in Europe will be expanded with the most recent strategic alliance with John Deere.
Of course, Kramer also has in store interesting machine innovations for trade fair visitors and customers. Since June, Kramer has been marketing in the agriculture sector eight additional telehandler models with a 6-9 m stacking height (KT306, KT356, KT307, KT357, KT447, KT507, KT557 and KT559). From January 2018 onwards, a first update for this range of machines will take place in line with the new tractor regulation. In addition to the implementation of the new regulations, a new operating concept comes into use, which enables the intuitive operation of all functions with the help of the electronically controlled all-In-one joystick and the jog dial operating element. For example, the sensitivity of the joystick can be set individually with this. All relevant vehicle data and settings are outputted via the new 7"-display. The new hydrostatic drive system "ecospeedPRO" with 370cc suction volume comes into use as a special innovation for the KT507, KT557 and KT559 models for increased tractive force and driving dynamics. These are just a few examples from the model reworking of the Kramer telehandler series for the 2018 model year. As examples from the new construction series, the KT357 and the KT557 will be on show at Agritechnica.
As a special highlight, Kramer-Werke GmbH will present for the first time at the Agritechnica 2017 the KL60.8, an all-wheel-steered wheel loader in the 9 - 10 t operating weight class, with which the product portfolio in the wheel loader area reaches new dimensions. The standard equipment for the series is already very extensive and includes, among other things, a large LCD-display with integrated rear-view camera, automatic climate control as well as optional bucket return automation. The package of the strongly-performing load-sensing hydraulics, innovative ecospeedPRO drive system and the proven Deutz engine make the new Kramer wheel loader into a good choice for the discerning farmer. The impressive performance data is supplemented by the all-wheel steering, typical for Kramer, which stands for optimum stability, manoeuvrability and compactness. As usual with Kramer, the vehicle can be adapted to individual requirements by a variety of performance options.
KL60.8
Overall, Kramer will exhibit ten machines on the main stand in Hall 6 Booth C40 that guarantee a good overview of the entire product portfolio. In addition to the new products, as further exhibits, the Kramer models, KL12.5, the first all-wheel-steered electric wheel loader, KL25.5e, KL30.8T and the KL43.8L as a cross-section of the wheel and tele-wheel loader range are on site. In addition to the already-cited telescopic loaders, KT357 and KT557, the KT276, the KT447 and the largest model of the Kramer telescopic series, the KT559 will be exhibited. The remote-controlled wheel loader, KL35.8T and the telescopic loaders, KT357 and KT557 will be displayed at the John Deere booth in Hall 13 E30. The diverse application areas of the Kramer machines in the agricultural sector will be presented through the fitting of matching attachments. Thus, a wide choice of attachments can be fitted at front or rear for any requirement. A flexible machine concept that facilitates everyday many processes in the agricultural value chain.
