What keeps the tracks from slipping, either off or just letting the tires spin in the tracks? I couldn't see teeth on the rear wheels or on the inside of the tracks to keep them from throwing when cornering.
What keeps the tracks from slipping, either off or just letting the tires spin in the tracks? I couldn't see teeth on the drear wheels or on the inside of the tracks to keep them from throwing when cornering.
in some parts of the vid is it so that the front wheels have low air preassure in 'em to give more traction and less ground preassure? and secondly who is the (...) saying that u can't drive with a RWD car in winter without proper tires? in my understanding it's all the same RWD or FWD both equally fucked up in snow with bad tires.
it must have some type of transfer case that you can disengage the rear drive, and only make it front drive for the doly-transprt add on peice. Its a good idea, but too much shyt to go wrong, and to complicated. It wouldnt last very long in the elements of loggin in the north-west/north-east, and canada. Ill keep my tire chains and and air compressor.
Good idea having a half track like that. Band tracks are becoming far more more reliable. I"m not sure about military applications though. They've been tested on the M113 chassis and I think they'll need more development to deal with extremes of hot and cold for military use.
@428ghost Yep Cold with Snow and Ice like here in Canada Would rip those rubber tracks apart Most of the reason we use chains On the tires If need be and rubber on Ice isn't very good At all If you want to move any were at an kind of speed.
@cdarting91 yea, im still puzzled on the begining of the clip, if you look its got a doly like setup underneath the rear tracs, but if it is all whel drive, how do you keep the rear tracks/wheels from spinning on the dolly-transport, and only have the front spin? Its def' and odd setup.
@surfnfx at 3:57 it runs just fine down the road. IIRC the truck can still run down the road as it uses the dual tires at the front and rear with the track lug fitting between the tires to keep the track on. Pretty neat really.
Kick ass, dude. I always wanted to build something like that using an old Romanian Roman truck and some parts from a UTB S650 tractor . My very own half-track.
Actually seen a simpler design being built on TV from a big ass V8 pick-up truck.
@oakwoods55 the point of this thing is that it'll haul 22 metric tonnes worth of stuff out of a marsh and that unlike a JCB or Cat it doesn't need another vehicle to haul it between job sites.
Check out the WW2 Era "Half-Tracks", the fore runner's of this design, go anywhere vehicles w/ front end Wheel's & Rear End "Band Tracks"...highly useful, all terrain vehicles w/ a very simple basic, if 'odd looking' design.
You may not have noticed, but most of your American lorry manufacturers are actually in European ownership now. Mack, as an example, is owned by Renault.
e essa prancha debaixo do caminhão, não emperra em lombadas e curvas difíceis não ? quero ver passar em qualquer trecho de serra c esse trambolho... porcaria, engenharia preguiçosa ... não gosto de iveco MESMO, pra mim não é caminhão de verdade .. esse aí faz exatamente a mesma coisa que um Ural ou Tatra e principalmente um MAN pode fazer, e roda muito melhor on-road que o Trambolho Iveco
I like what happen on 6:17 - 6:20, it transform to front wheel drive. Versatile big truck is really a saving on work. Half track all wheel drive and can just be switch to front wheel drive only is really cool.
Although they do help well in very deep mud or snowy areas, but in the demonstration we see here, there is neither, so two axles with dually tires would work.
The "Half Track" was used in WW2... I can tell this is different from the "Half Track"... but the proof of concept proves its viability... it can haul quite a load thru some difficult muddy terrain that other trucks would just get stuck or bottom out in.
@robby844 You don't know what you are talking about do you ? It's not even FWD IT'S AWD , the rear wheels are locked when loaded on the trailer for easy transportation but when it's off the trailer all wheels are used.
And for FWD being pointless , at least you can drive in snow with FWD , all RWD vehicles without proper tires will stand still , a fwd vehicle will have grip.
@melangeken your last statement proved how full of shit you truly are. my jeep in single axle will out perform my moms ford focus in the snow. and its not AWD if the front axle doesnt drive you retard.
@hotdogsandwiches its an all wheel drive it just uses fwd to save the rubber tracks looks funny yes but good idea none the less i say kudos good design and less pm on the half track idea
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Not very useful because usually on a work-site before starting real work there's always some work done to clear up the road for trucks and this kind of truck is a loss of time and fuel.
Not alot of clearance with the trailer wheels, a heavy load could produce alot of friction beetween metal and tyre resulting in a puncture, which in turn could be very dangerous...
me too, its kind of odd, also most us trucks here doi not have FWD or 6x6. Only the 2nd axle drives the truck so its strictly European trucks i guess.
Het zal 'm net zo vergaan als al die andere snelwegtrucks in dit zwaar werk: scheuren in het chassis, falen van differentieel, tussenbak, koppeling en cardan.
Als je zoiets wilt bouwen moet je vanaf de grond af met een offroad chassis beginnen, en niet een asfalttruck gaan pimpen...
Maar ja, B-E koning Pieter Veldhuizen heeft het immers bedacht, die man is groot geworden door mensen een dinky toy te verkopen om het werk van een vrachtwagen te doen... :D
As we can see half-truck are not in history, there are already here. Does anybody knows something about modern half-trucks? I woud like to know anything about it.

For construction, the articulated off-road 6X6 dump truck is probably a better choice.
