Vredo introduces for the 2021 season; the VT7138. The new Scania V8 Stage5 engine with over 3250nm torque @ 1350rpm/min provides a max power of 710 HP. The compact construction in combination with steered axles makes the machine very manoeuvrable and very fast when turning on the headland. The combination of crab steer and driven axles ensure that the machines can enter the field early in the spring and, thanks to the optional tyre pressure inflation system, ensure minimal soil compaction.
Vredo VT7138
The 3-axle vehicle, VT7138-3, has a 32 m3 polyester tank (Optional 32 m3 FlexTank). This makes it possible to empty a full truckload in one go. The Pump-Filter unit is positioned in front of the cabin, so that the driver has an excellent view at all times from the cabin of loading from the pit, container or applicator. With the 12,000 liter per minute slurry pump in combination with the 10 inch suction arm, the machine has maximum capacity and maneuverability under all circumstances. The heavy duty, solid 3-point hitch with CAT 3N or 4N hooks, makes it possible to connect all possible injectors on the market. The hitch is automatically steered in accordance with the crab steering.
Engine
Perfect weight distribution
The machine is designed for optimal weight distribution between the front and rear axle (s), so that the lowest possible tire pressure can be achieved in all 4 or 6 wheels. The cab is also placed far to the front for excellent visibility and in a way that implement systems can be optimally positioned.
VVT700
As there is no suitable transmission available on the market, Vredo relies on its self-developed VVT700 transmission in the VT7138. The VVT700 transmission has the very latest techniques for maximum traction, stepless shifting and the lowest fuel consumption in the current market. By combining the unique versatility of the hydrostatic principle with the high power of a mechanically powerful transmission, Vredo has an efficient and functional transmission with 3 external hydraulic pump connections and an all wheel drive with differential lock.
Slurrytank
Cabin
The spacious cabin has air suspension all around and has all the desired features that a modern workplace requires such as: automatic air conditioning, Grammer Maximo Super-Comfort seat, multifunctional displays, easy to operate joystick with many combined functionalities. All these functionalities make the working day a lot more pleasant for the driver and thus set a new standard in driver comfort.

Eco Mode

Vredo has developed a new Eco mode for the VT7138. This ensures that the engine speed is adjusted to the required power. This saves fuel and thanks to the high torque of the Scania engine, this control can be optimally applied.
10" suction arm
The slurry pump capacity is optimally utilized with the 10 “suction arm, which ensures a very fast loading time of the slurry tank. The pipework ensures a slurry flow with little resistance and therefore a high capacity. The construction with 10 “piping also ensures a large discharge capacity, for optimal utilization of the 12 m3 / min slurry pump.

32000 Zs Flex Tank
Optionally, the machine can be equipped with FlexTank, which provides a fixed 25,000 liters + flexible 7,000 liters, so that the standard tank can be built narrower while still retaining its 32,000 liters of slurry content. With this FlexTank it is achieved that the tank, including a trailing hose or trailing shoe injector, folded along the tank remains within the requested transport width.
Tyre pressure control system
The tire pressure control system provides low tire pressure in combination with crab steer for minimal ground compaction in the field, with that improving soil life remains intact and maximum crop yield is possible. For road use, the tire pressure can be increased for minimal tire wear.
Precision farming GPS/NIR
In order to keep up with the growing demands and developments in precision agriculture, Vredo Tracs can now be supplied with a GPS system and NIR sensor. In combination with Trimble GPS a Zunhammer NIR sensor and with John Deere a John Deere NIR sensor is fitted. The NIR sensor measures and records the nutrient levels in the slurry, this information can be used in combination with application maps. Ensuring the optimum use of nutrients during application.
