FG machinery editor's top 6 picks from LAMMA

JCB Fastrac 6000Ìý

"The long-awaited Fastrac - a middle range between the 4k and 8k. It is a progressive bit of design and uses features of the 4000 but has more power."ÌýÌý

Merlot TF35.7 - in blueÌý

"It is a really high spec version - I just really like the colour."

New Deutz Fahr 8 seriesÌý

"The long awaited replacement to the previous 8 series, it is quite a big step up to what they have had before. It is the first tractor to use an automotive style guidance system. Quit clever."Ìý

Outlander electric quad bikeÌýÌý

"It is the first commercial available ATV which is really interesting in itself. ATV users are in a good position to utilise electric vehicles."Ìý

Fastview 360 tractor safeÌý

"An object detection, AI based camera system using different sensors to detect humans and hazards around tractors. It changes what it deems dangerous depending on what the machine is doing."Ìý

McHale TerraDriveÌý

"It is a nice bit of progression in terms of technology - it moves the baler's function to being towed by the tractor to being pulled.Ìý
"The axel and the trailer is driven which is an industry first in that respect. In upland or difficult conditions you essentially have a 6x6 drive vehicle meaning the tractor and baler work together."
