There it is, the DAMMANN‑trac. Hydrostatic drive, intelligent engine control. And as a power source: a Mercedes‑Benz engine for power on the field.
A legend from Buxtehude.
The DAMMANN‑trac also needs this: the OM 936 6‑cylinder diesel engine not only has to pull a 7,000‑litre tank across the field, but also a considerable body. Fully extended, the arms of the electro‑pneumatic tandem nozzle holder reach a span of 42 metres. Thanks to the high‑tech nozzle pump, it dispenses the liquids so well, economically and precisely that any neighbouring areas are barely affected. And if that’s not enough: DAMMANN implements special requests. Without batting an eyelid. No wonder that this invention from Buxtehude is also used on other continents.
42
metres, that’s the wingspan DAMMANN machines can reach for the high‑precision application of pesticides.
The electro‑pneumatic tandem nozzle holder. The first DAMMANN‑trac based on the MB‑trac was built back in 1982.
Here’s how it started: The first plant protection crop sprayers had a hydraulically folding, 15‑metre frame mounted on a Mercedes‑Benz Unimog as the basic vehicle.
