ANALYSIS OF METHODS AND DEVICES FOR EVALUATION OF THE TRACTION PROPERTIES TRACTOR

The article presents analysis of the methods and means of evaluating of the traction properties tractor. In the previous researches, it was propose to evaluate of the traction properties tractor on their supporting-coupling properties without taking into account the stochastic modes of exploitation and modes of operation. Experimental methods of definitions the traction of tractor require conducting a large number of experiments. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out an analysis of the methods and the means of improving the results of the definitions of the traction of tractor and justify ways to increase the speed of their implementation The conducted analysis made it possible to justify, that method evaluating the traction properties of tractor on the measurement of its accelerations on moving is the best method. Based on the results of experimental research, a conclusion was made about the need for a theoretical research of the effectiveness of tractor ballasting.
