Feasibility Proposal for Heavy Duty Farm Tractor

Abstract

Developing sustainable, non-polluting systems is the challenge that the agricultural sector must absolutely seize. There are more and more virtuous companies that adopt green tools able to continue production without damaging the ecosystem. For this purpose, electric traction tractors play a fundamental role. The aim of the work is to size the main components inside an electric tractor, in particular the choice of the type of electric traction motor, the capacity and recharging time of the battery. Finally, a preliminary economic estimation is reported.
