Tractor K-744. Engine K-744

The agrarian sector of our time makes very high demands on technology, which is used to perform certain tasks. The very first thing that draws attention to is the traction class of the car, its patency. The main thing is that the tractor can work for a whole year. This transport is not afraid of winter drifts, or mudslides, characteristic for the spring period, or autumn mud. Domestic designers managed to create such transport, which became popular in European countries.

Kirovets

Tractor K-744, better known as "Kirovets", is an almost ideal machine, capable of operating even in the most difficult conditions. The technique of this model is used to carry out agricultural work throughout the year, because he can do any difficulties. Opportunities that a tractor K-744 possesses will please not one farmer and allow him to sow on time or without special problems, or to harvest a crop. This model combines all the best qualities from previous models that were produced earlier in the factory.

History of creation

The first tractor from this series was created more than a quarter of a century ago. Tractor K-744 is already the fourth generation, which replaced the legendary K-700 and K-701 models. The decision to create a new machine came when, at a tractor plant located in St. Petersburg, they decided to replace already quite old models. Initially, the series was created for sale to European countries. In this regard, serious modernization was required, since all previous models did not comply with the European safety standards. Later, engineers from Germany became interested in the technique of the Kirov plant. And as a result of joint work, a tractor with a strengthened cab turned out, as well, most of the units and assemblies were replaced, and foreign engines were installed as power.

After the presentation of the first K-700 in the world, this technique became popular and known around the world, as it was the most powerful tractor of the time.

Russian machinery is recognized among European farmers, as it is characterized by its performance, and its cost is much lower than similar machines of the more famous world giants. Until today, the K-744 tractor in Europe is used to perform a huge amount of work related to cultivation, as well as cleaning the fields.

Advantages

The success of tractors abroad, as well as the experience that engineers took from foreign colleagues - all this was a prerequisite for building a completely new kind of equipment, with the K-744 marking. This transport was adapted both for Russian conditions and for European ones. Already in 2000 the world saw the fifth generation of the legendary "Kirovets". According to statistics, this is one of the most popular tractors, purchased by farmers for processing their lands.

Such a high popularity did not become a discovery, so the tractor K-744, whose price varies from 4 to 5.5 million rubles, everything depends on the equipment, it has a huge number of advantages. It is worth noting that the cost of used equipment is only 1.5 and up to 3 million, it all depends on the condition.

A feature that "Kirovets" possesses is an ergonomic cabin. The driver's seat became more comfortable, and at the same time access to all the levers became even easier. The presence of modern heating and air conditioning systems has made it possible to create the most comfortable microclimate for the normal operation of the driver.

The main advantage is the power component

All tractors of the line are equipped with power units with a power from 300 to 428 horsepower. The K-744 engine is economical and works without interruptions. It should be noted that this fact applies to both domestic and foreign motor models.

To increase the traction characteristics on the tractor, it is possible to install special kits, which in turn allow the installation of twin wheels. Excellent driving performance is still possible due to the installation of the all-wheel drive, as well as a slightly sprung front axle.

Restyling

In 2012, restyling was carried out, as well as the modernization of some elements that contributed to increased productivity. In this case, the technique has become more comfortable for the buyer. It is worth noting that the service has become more convenient. Spare parts K-744, like the tractor, were modernized and received an increased resource.

In addition, the area of aggregation expanded with various elements for the implementation of agricultural work. Thanks to the improved attachment, the tractors work well with plows, with different types of seeders, disc harrows, cultivators, deep loosers and other attachments supplied for the K-744.

Main settings

At the moment 744 is a series, which includes 4 types of tractors. The differences in technology are mainly in the traction characteristics, as well as in the form of a power unit. For example, K-744 P2 is available in two trim levels, which differ from each other in engine power, as well as in the engine manufacturer. In the first case, it is an engine of TMZ brand with a capacity of 350 forces, and in the second case - Mercedes, with 354 horses. Absolutely all tractors from the new series are equipped with a hydraulic system with an axial-piston pump capacity of 180 l / min.

Version K-744 P3, like P2, is available with two motors: TMZ (490 forces), and Mercedes (428 horses). Both in the first variant, and in the second transmission, the mechanical transmission with 16 gears providing forward motion, as well as 8 gears - for the reverse. The gearbox is hydraulically operated.

In the P2 and P3 versions, the Mercedes engines were distinguished by their high reliability and high torque.

The tractor of the Kirov plant with the index "K" is one of the best vehicles offered to date on the domestic market of agricultural machinery. All due to the fact that when it was created, designers tried to take into account all the needs and requirements of modern agrarian industry. As a result, a high-performance machine with a very large functionality turned out. It is worth noting that the K-744 is an economical machine, which is a very important condition for the choice of equipment.
