John Deere's New Equipment
What happens here
The first machine highlighted is the John Deere 850 X-Tier E-Drive Dozer. A John Deere representative, Cath, explains that this is their first dozer featuring a dual-path electric drive system. This technology utilizes a diesel engine connected to a generator, which powers inverters and two electric drive motors. These motors are directly connected to the final drives, allowing independent control of torque on each drive, providing increased power management and performance similar to a 'Tesla with the power of a Cummins.' The cab features an updated display strategy with surround view cameras and the most screens in the industry, giving operators essential information where and when they need it.
Goal: Learn about the innovative dual-path electric drive and advanced cab features of the 850 X-Tier Dozer.
