New CombineMaster sizes broaden scope of application

Continental’s agricultural tyre division has extended its CombineMaster tyre range to bring very high flexion (VF) and cyclical field operation (CFO) technology to a wider variety of farm machinery. Indeed, Tom Godwin, who is Sales Manager – Agricultural & MPT Tyres (UK & ROI) at Continental, comments that the name CombineMaster “disguises the virtues of this tyre to other machines including loaders, tankers and other types of harvesting machines.”

How Continental Mabor is supporting the manufacturer’s agricultural ambitions

, ,
Continental

In 2016, Continental took the decision to bring back the manufacture of Conti-branded agricultural tyres under its own control. Production of Continental agricultural tyres had been carried out by Czech tyre maker Mitas from 2004, when it acquired the license, and had been due to continue until 2019. However, the acquisition of Mitas by agricultural tyre manufacturer Trelleborg Wheel Systems meant the Continental brand became surplus to requirements. Conti saw this as an early opportunity to re-enter the lucrative, high-technology agricultural tyre segment with a premium brand intended to compete at the top of the European segment and manufactured at the Continental Mabor plant in Lousado, Portugal with the help of an initial 50-million-euro investment and the recruitment of a manufacturing and R&D team.

Conti releases new, ‘safer’ combine tyres

Continental

Continental has released a new combine harvester tyre, its first with a single filament bead core. In order to make the tyre safer and reduce slippage on the wheel, the manufacturer has designed a new bead construction for the the CombineMaster. In addition to road safety, reducing slippage also helps to reduce soil compaction – one of the most important considerations for agricultural tyre suppliers. By reducing compaction, the new tyre helps to protect the fissures in the soil that promote healthy growth. This increases the yield potential in the field. The tyre is the latest in Conti’s line of “Master” agricultural products. Conti has recently developed its agricultural tyre business with a 10-year guarantee and very high flexion (VF) fitment options.
