Pöttinger: From grassland machinery to global innovator
Formed in 1871, Austrian agricultural machinery manufacturer Pottinger originally focused on producing grassland machinery for a little over a century.
The technology is said to offer smoother running and reduced noise levels.
Developed and manufactured in Austria, the cutterbar set-up uses similar sized gears, resulting in three teeth always being in-mesh, which allows better power transmission and softer start-up characteristics.
The gear sets also have a new surface finish which makes them smoother running, reduces noise and extends working life by being supported on twin-raced, tapered bearing assemblies.
