various configurations and arms for loaders, which is the best and most efficient

What type of loader to fit?

What type of loader to fit? Only ever had jd loaders fitted from the factory and for the bit of loader work I do they have been fine. I am looking to fit a loader to a tractor I have now and don’t really have any experience with aftermarket loaders budget around 6-7k what would you buy?

in your opinion, the best lever system for mechanical shovels. which is the most efficient robust. which needs little maintenance. For multi-tool parallel arms. to dig the Z-bar system. let me know, thanks

Static Force Analysis of Linkage

Hi! I'm trying to complete a static force analysis on the bar linkage shown below. The goal is to find the payload mass in terms of the cylinder forces and everything else in a static environment. To simplify things I've made the assumption that the mass of the payload in the bucket acts at...

Hard to beat a Volvo imo

The two rams on top are supposed to be faster for laying grass out on a silage pit which requires to be flicked about but this is at the expense of tear out force

I did my homework too, I know that the mechanical shovels have as parameters: penetration and tearing of the tooth, plus other parameters that are used to make the machine performance. many say that the dresser type Z balance system is efficient but the operator has little visibility. better the system with parallel arms if you have to use the forks and move loads, you have more visibility and precision of the maneuvers. a friend of my father who repaired hanomag claimed that the best arm mechanism was the 55d hanomag blade. but it was difficult to repair the arm and replace the worn bushings. I have seen that caterpillar has created a system that is similar to volvo and is a middle ground between Z balance system with levers and parallel arm system, so you can use the bucket for earthmoving jobs, the forks to move and move loads and goods and other utensils. at the expense of visibility? which engineer designed the z system? I noticed used by the German production shovels, am I wrong?

Wheeled loader with 3 point linkage??

As a small farm I would find it difficult to justify a wheeled loader, even though it would be extremely handy. If, however, it could be deployed as a second tractor during haymaking for say tedding or rowing up, then it becomes a far better proposition. I think Merlo tried something along these...

Wheel loader: z-bar or parallel lift

For farm use lifting and handling primarily hay bales (round), with spears, am I correct in assuming the tool carrier /parallel linkage is the preferred style over conventional z-bar? I wanted a high lIft boom but not all brands have parallel design with high lift.

Older diggers for farm use

You don't see many of these with a three point linkage. https://www.donedeal.ie/tractors-for-sale/fermec-660-loader/21969345 And a PTO.

The Z linkage has far more tare out force but doesn’t lift the bucket parallel and also has a greater bucket rotation for tipping at full height

 

[barracane]

thanks for your clarification, I believe that caterpillar and volvo are improving and perfecting this type of linkage so as to create an arm that has good performance for earthmoving and excavation operations and with tools, hooking the forklift type lifting forks and for the claw pliers for the trunks and other tools. I'm wrong?
