Multifunction, over-the-row tractor designed for mechanized narrow-row vineyard management

For several years, vine growing industry professionals have used the OPTIMUM range. As a true PELLENC benchmark, the OPTIMUM range combines profitability, harvesting quality and is environmentally friendly. Today, thanks to the all new OPTIMUM 340 tractor that can be used within a 1-1.50m width range (3.3ft – 5ft), vine growers can use this technology for narrow vineyards.

The OPTIMUM 340 tractor combines a number of features to meet specific narrow vineyard challenges. Its multifunction aspect was improved using hydraulic connections and innovative toolholders. Activated by controls disconnected from the ground, they facilitate tool towing and avoid back and forth movements in the driver’s seat, ensuring greater safety.

The OPTIMUM 340 cockpit has a hydraulic opening and closing ladder in addition to a wide access platform in the driver’s seat. Its “high comfort” pneumatic suspension seat is heated and includes an armrest with a joystick. Driving assistance is also optimised thanks to a 10-inch touchscreen displaying the slopes and slope percentages instantly. It also has an independent touchscreen video displaying up to 4 cameras.

During the design of OPTIMUM 340, special care was given to :

• Safety with a pressure system and an emergency stop;

• Maintenance with easier access and a reminder for necessary reviews;

• Handling with a wheelbase of 2.60m (8.5ft) and a steering angle of 85 degrees, ensuring perfect stability;

• Fuel economy (up to 43%) with automatic regulation of the combustion engine speed.
