New e-Vanguard
Silent, powerful, sustainable: the future of agriculture starts here!
BE NEXT, BE GREEN, BE ELECTRIC.
Municipalities and modern farms increasingly aspire to operate in a more sustainable way by reducing exhaust and noise pollution emissions.
To help them in their mission BCS presents an isodiametric, compact and multifunctional tractor with an alternative power supply:
e-Vanguard is in fact the new 100% electric tractor.
Hyper-specialized DNA, premium content, and modern style for a tractor with an innovative character that unleashes the full power of its full-electric engine.
Application fields.
The new e-Vanguard is available in two versions:
‘AR’ with an articulated chassis, a minimum width of one meter, and a turning radius of only 2.5 meters;
‘RS’ with a traditional chassis featuring steering wheels and a dual brake pedal used to reduce turning radii.
The ‘Vista Clima’ cab, equipped with air conditioning, and a reversible driver’s seat suspended on silent blocks allows the operator to work in a practical, safe, and highly comfortable manner.
The major application fields of e-Vanguard are:
- in municipalities, for green maintenance work and snow removal in urban centres;
- in horticulture and animal husbandry, for use in enclosed areas, such as greenhouses and stables;
- in specialised agriculture, in all narrow space applications in vineyards and orchards.
Technical features.
- Electrically powered isodiametric tractor.
- 48 V lithium batteries with 36 kWh capacity.
- Total installed electrical power: 41 kW.
- Autonomy: 3 to 6 hours depending on application and working conditions.
- Battery charging time with 6 kWh input: approx. 3 hours.
Under the hood of the e-Vanguard there are two electric engines: the first 16-kW engine is used for the hydraulic system, the power steering and the services while the second 25-kW engine is dedicated to the traction.
The 3 operating modes allow power to be managed based on the task to be performed, ensuring more efficient use of the tractor and longer battery life.
The Made in BCS mechanical transmission with a multi-plate in oil bath clutch is equipped with a 12-speed forward and 12-speed reverse gearbox with synchronised reverse shuttle.
The hydraulic system consists of a pump flanged to the dedicated electric engine and allows up to eight rear hydraulic outlets for the use of all modern equipment.
Two options for the remotes activating system: by mechanical distributors or by a new electronic proportional and multifunction joystick.
The optimal distribution of loads on the two axles, combined with 4WD and the unique OS-Frame integral chassis with 15-degree oscillation between front and rear, guarantees the e-Vanguard electric tractor’s stability even on uneven terrain.
To cap it all, there’s a full-LED operating light.
