TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The AGCO RT120 features a continuously variable transmission (CVT) with a 32-speed partial power shift, providing seamless power delivery and improved fuel efficiency during operation. The advantages of this transmission type include enhanced control over speed and torque, promoting optimal performance across various field conditions. However, maintenance complexity may increase, necessitating skilled technicians for repairs, which can affect operational downtime in case of unexpected failures.

TRANSMISSION 1

The AGCO RT120's PowerMaxx CVT offers an infinitely variable transmission system, allowing seamless speed adjustments for optimal performance and fuel efficiency. This design minimizes power loss during gear transitions, enhancing productivity during tasks such as loader work and tillage. However, while CVTs provide smoother operation, they may require more maintenance compared to traditional transmissions in the long run.

Type continuously variable transmission
Gears infinite (2-range) forward and reverse

TRANSMISSION 2

The AGCO RT120 tractor features a QuadraShift partial power shift transmission, providing smooth gear transitions with 32 forward and reverse options, enabling flexibility for various tasks. The four power shift gears within the four ranges enhance operational efficiency, making it ideal for both high-speed and heavy-load applications. This setup can present a learning curve for operators unfamiliar with multi-range shifting, but ultimately improves productivity in demanding farming scenarios.

Type partial power shift
Gears 32 forward and reverse
Description Four power shift gears in four ranges

MECHANICAL

The AGCO RT120 tractor features a flexible 4x4 MFWD system, enhancing traction on varied terrain while the electro-hydraulic differential lock allows for better maneuverability in challenging conditions, ideal for heavy field tasks. The continuously variable transmission (CVT) with a partial power shift provides smooth power delivery and operational efficiency, making it suitable for both light and heavyweight applications. Its hydrostatic power steering and hydraulic wet disc brakes ensure responsive handling and braking capabilities, though reliance on hydraulic systems could increase maintenance demands.
