- Claas UK and Claas Eastern were kind enough to stop by with their new Claas Axion 960 TerraTrac to show us what it can do. After 4 days of rain (about 35mm overall), this new Claas did not disappoint.
We started with our 10 furrow Kverneland plough before trying our Vaderstad Topdown. This new Claas Axion 960 TerraTrac did an excellent job pulling both and was surprisingly light on the wet headlands.
We would love to see one of these beasts added to our fleet one day! Is this better than the Case Rowtrac we normally use? It would be great to put them head-to-head one day and find out!
Warter Priory is a world class farming operation set in the heart of East Yorkshire amidst 12,000 acres. At Warter, we pride ourselves on our reputation for quality and efficient farming. The main crops we focus on growing are wheat, barley and oilseed rape. We also grow peas in partnership with Birds Eye and some of our land is used for growing potatoes.

I like the half-track design on this tractor. It looks cool. This tractor nice looking. There's some benefits to these track design too. Most rigid frame tractors today use a triangular track and the drive sprockets is at the top, with this type of track the drive sprocket is making contact with the ground less chance of slippage. Plus you get more contactwith the track against the sprocket I guess you would call that drive wheel I don't know what they call it inside the track you guys get what I'm saying.
Very cool tractor, wish they had some of these around where I live but unfortunately all Deere and Case here in south Louisiana
Those Germans and their half tracks hey... 😁👍
Could you do a video without the music so we can hear the tractor 🚜
Great video! The Claas looks and sounds like an impressive machine!
Thanks!
Молодці. Дуже хороше рішення.
Lovely tractor :-)
By god I bet that thing has some pulling power. Bosses both the Kvernland and the Stadt around with some ease given the conditions,.. can't help but imagine it in a different green and with 1050 on the side of the bonnet! 😏 Glad to see you guys posting again 👍
What's a Stadt?
The disc harrow is a Väderstad
@@frankeinfish sorry yes, *stad, as in Väderstad, my German autocorrect kicked in I think
Yeah it definitely pulls! Thank you
Love you warter priory Estate
beautiful driver
Funny how things go round in circles Half Tracks were around with Roadless and other manufacturers.
When it was ploughin looked like that type of land more suited to slatted mouldboards 🤔 impressive machine 👍
Bob Paterson it’s deceptive, the ground is very stony and not too light.
nice kit and video
Super

Great to see you filming again. Ground looks a bit damp, it's been a tricky season, do you like the Claas?
Thank you. Yeah it went really well!
Nice video. Great tractor!!
Thanks!
They should really do a square frame plow so then the headland can be done at the same time saving time , fuel, trouble.. with the GPS guide system it still can allow for the angled field edges no problems! Why plows seem to be still long angled length designs when it far better to have the flat wide design of the frame plow based on a cultivator frame. Nice tractor there.
Good idea Colin :-)
So happy you made another video! Please make more! You can't have too many plowing videos! Just saying!
Spoiler alert... be ready for our next video, coming out tomorrow...
Great Video:)
Greetings from Bavaria;)
Thank you!
Welcome back!
Thank you! Will try to post a little more often!
Can we get this in Farming Simulator 19 please modders!
I Will be there the 19 with the dlc
@@gammelsvensker i doubt that there will be this axion with the terra tracs in the dlc
you got your wish.
whether it goes in the mud is good
it's nice to see this and i'm sure it has more traction in the rear becouse of the track it has though maybe it would slip a little more becouse of it doesn't go as deep as the tires it would have instead
Having the tires dig into the soil is not desirable at all in agriculture. There's a reason why many are switching over to flotation-type tires as of late. The less pressure a tractor exerts on the ground, the more mobile it will be, in addition to the fact that it won't damage the soil as much. Digging into the ground is how you get stuck. If tracks didn't offer superior traction, bulldozers wouldn't all have tracks on them, and neither would tanks.
alright and i'm sure a bit smarter as i didn't know what good could come with flotation tires though how much damage would compaction do? probably too much damage to the soil which you say is pretty undesireable in alot of places so what kind of flotation tires would be best? the one we see here or the other type tractors has?
@@john34261 I couldn't really tell you which ones are best. Just look up the big tire manufacturers (Mitas, Trelleborg, Michellin, Goodyear, etc.), see what LSW/LGP tires they have and then research them.
@@MFKR696 i would believe different manufactor has different qualities and i know or atleast guess the soil has different qualities too so maybe depending on the soil is what manufactor i would need to buy though it would be too expensive to try all of the manufactors
@@john34261 You are correct. You would have to figure out which model works best for the terrain you're operating in. Every manufacturer has its pros and cons, and every manufacturer has nifty little features of their own. Like Trelleborg, for instance. They clear mud quite a bit better than most, but due to their sharp, angular tread edges, they tear up the ground a bit, regardless of how wide they are. On the budget end of things, I would suggest starting your research with Mitas. They might have what you need. I'm not saying you have to go and buy a whole bunch of tires. Just look them up on their website and read the specs. Usually, they'll say specifically what a model or line is for, and there's usually ratings for load-capacity, compaction and such.
Well done claas i like that harf track tractor its been a round a long time ... good desine good traction ... well done claas.😉hi fron ireland 😆

Wow Youre Alive!
Alive and kicking! Will try to post more often again!
She looks powerful!
She IS powerful :-D
Amazing tool. Not a lot of soil compaction there.🇬🇧
Yep, it seemed to do well!
I thought you were gone full CNH 😄
Will you demo the new T8 or new Magnum?
Hope not 😂😂
@@alexanderyounger7638 oh look there. the claas fanboy
We are CNH now! Just tried this for a few hours
@@WarterPrioryEstate great! :D
Are you going to load some videos of harvest 19?
@@fab8657 you're the fanboy here
Does UK have so much of sunshine?
Yeah we have some good sunny days occasionally !
Neat just neat!😄😄👍👍
Definitely cool to see!
👍
Nice, work horse, be nice to it and its gonna last you long time. TH
Krystian Sieminski the tractor is just on demo will only be there a couple off days
How much power has she got

Plenty!

It's a claas oh dear 😥
Just when you thought tractors could not get any uglier and ridiculous looking along comes this bloody thing .
It does seem like Claas views being ugly as some sort of art form these days. The only model from their current lineup that doesn't look like it belongs on the Island of Lost Toys is the Xerion. The Axion is ugly enough as it is, and those poorly-executed tracks make it even worse. I have no problem with the track system itself, but how they're mounted and how the body-work was handled around them just looks half-baked. It looks like a lazy kit-bash rather than the world class tractor that a Claas is supposed to be. The way they look is just as disappointing and underwhelming as the first time I saw a Lamborghini tractor. For all I know, it might be a great rig, but it sure doesn't look the part. As far as looks go, these days Deutz-Fahr seems to have put alot of thought into its designs. Everything that's there looks like it belongs, in contrast to the tracked Axion, which just looks like a hodge-podge that was designed by a 5-year-old.
H3R3T1C Yep bloody horrible, looks like a hatfull of busted crabs arseholes.
I’m pretty sure most tractor brands put functional over form. At the end of the day tractors are full on working machines.
NASA 1 Have a study of American tractors up to the 1990s ,they managed to balance form and function into a machine you would be proud to own ,this Claas just looks like a pile of shit .
Many JD tractors are really ugly. 8R, 8RT, 9RT are probably ugliest.
Had to copy case.
🤦🏻♀️ no comment!
🤢
Thats one ugly tractor!
Sorry Peter I think its mega,,
Dont be sorry about that jim youre absolutely entitled to think so, i just need the big brutal back tires, everything but the belts is by the way awesome im a big fan of claas machinery i general
It was cool until the 8RX dropped
Better than the 8rx in every way except sheer traction and weight
Well done on copying CNH
