TerraFuture Caterpillar Track

Caterpillar Track

In many countries locomotion is still a major problem.
Deserts, swamps, perma-frost areas, rainforests and river crossings make it difficult to progress worldwide. In most developing countries, unpaved roads are still the backbone of the transport system.
The TerraFuture-Caterpillar Track guarantees trucks with full off-road capability even on mud, sand, snow or off-road at low cost. It is now possible to make entire regions accessible and economically viable all year round. 
In addition, studies on the roads in the Congo Basin of the DR Congo have shown that, due to the high groundwater level on unpaved roads, standard all-wheel-drive trucks create deep furrows, dig themselves in and are as slow as horse-drawn wagons or can even get stuck completely. 
Because the caterpillar track does not cause furrows due to the low ground pressure, but it even slightly compacts the soil, the slope surface automatically improves. Regular leveling is no longer necessary, which results in savings of many billions of US dollars. In addition, a much higher transport volume can be achieved without incurring higher costs! The caterpillar tire can reach speeds of up to 80 km/h.
The caterpillar track is very manoeuvrable, which is particularly important on mountain passes or hilly terrain. This new development in locomotion has many advantages, especially in areas that are difficult to access.
All the benefits at a glace
High off-road capability in difficult ground conditions such as ice, snow, mud, swamp or sand
Worldwide application possibilities
Year-round development of entire regions possible
No digging or furrows due to low soil pressure
The enlarged contact surface on the floor does not let the wheels fall individually into holes
No corrugated steel lines (transverse grooves in sand)
Very agile, especially on mountain passes
No more road maintenance costs necessary 
Increase in transport volume
Speed up to 80 km/h
