Exceptional Engineering: Harvesting Giants
Not only cows and Kässpatzen come from the Allgäu, but also the biggest and strongest agricultural machines in the world! In Marktoberdorf, Fendt has been building tractors, combine harvesters and harvesters since 1930. Meanwhile, the company with 3000 employees market leader in Germany. In professional circles, the agricultural machines from the Allgäu are considered the noblest and best on the market.
But the road from construction to sale to the farmer is long, after all, the machines have long since become high-tech devices equipped with onboard computers and GPS. The production is therefore very complex and takes place in several steps.
The "1050 Vario" also passes through 29 stations during its production. With a height of 3,60m, a curb weight of 14 tons and 517 hp, it is the strongest standard tractor in the world. At the headquarters in Marktoberdorf, the production of the Acker giant takes place.
In this WORLD report, we show the exciting production, maintenance and use of fields and fields of these mega agricultural machines - a real man's dream!

For those saying they dont need to be so dramatic when it comes to backing a tractor off a ramp, loading and unloading is the MOST dangerous part of equipment use

[@jonniessink1]

I agree. As someone who used to transport heavy equipment, the most dangerous part is when on the ramps and going over the trailer tires especially when wet. And worst one is the the rubber tracked unit. I money delt with the John deere version but they are basically the same very very nose heavy with out an implement on the back. They basically pivot on the front idler roller. If I wasn't very careful when unloading the front weights would kiss the ground and it would feel like you were going to be thrown out the front window.

Go read the specs, this this is truly a beast, and can be weighted to nearly 60k lbs... The "Fendt" brand is more designed for European specs, they not only use these for field equipment but as we in the US would use a Semi truck, these have air brakes, suspension etc... its as much a road "truck" to them as a "field tractor" to us... That's why the Challenger line in the US is different , same tractor but "different" for US specs... PAY ATTENTION!!!
