JCB has been presented with the top ‘Machine of the Year’ award at the LAMMA show, the UK’s biggest agricultural machinery and technology event, held at NEC Birmingham on 14/15 January.
The award judges chose JCB’s all new Fastrac 6000 Series tractor above a host of new agricultural machines launched at the event for being “unique in its power class, featuring as it does adaptive suspension all round, resulting in greater stability on the road and outstanding ride comfort in the field, with multi-mode four-wheel steering – another feature no other tractor in this class can boast – adding to the tractor’s capabilities.”
The LAMMA ‘Machine of the Year’ Gold Award was presented to JCB Agriculture Managing Director, John Smith, who said: “We are delighted to be the recipient of this award, an accolade that underscores our passion for innovation in pursuit of performance, cost-efficiency and productivity from all the agricultural machines we manufacture.”
The new 284hp Fastrac 6260 and 335hp 6300 agricultural tractors expand the iconic high-speed Fastrac range and introduce a number of new features, including the ability to quickly change tyre pressures using the iCON touch-screen control and settings display in the cab to optimise tyre performance for field work and road travel.
There is also a new high-precision guidance system to help operators achieve accurate field work with maximum productivity.
