Tractors Tyres - Tyre-Soil-Interaction

Tyre manufacturers meet the increasing demands of high powered farm tractors with the design of big sized farm tractor tyres (IF 900/65 R 46) and more flexible side walls (Ultraflex Technology). These tyres marked with IF or VF need only low inflation pressures and have, due to higher deformation, wider and flatter footprints claiming for increasing tyre perfor-mance and reducing soil compaction. High computer performance leads to comprehensive modelling of tyres on soft ground with simulation of traction behaviour and soil stresses.
