| Challenger is raising the bar even higher with the introduction of the MT700C Series track tractors. The all new MT700C Series are loaded with new features and improvements designed to make you even more productive and efficient.
- New digital dash display that’s easier to read and now indicates selected gear, ground speed and service hours.
- Redesigned Tractor Management Center console that provides simpler, more intuitive operation.
- New hydraulics system with a higher degree of control, higher flow and greater adaptability.
- An integrated ISOBUS control system that helps optimize productivity and performance of the tractor and any attached ISOBUS compliant implements
Engine Performance
For more than 20 years, Challenger track tractors have all had one thing in common …. rugged, reliable Cat power. Featuring ACERT technology, the Caterpillar C9 engine used in the MT700C Series meets all mandated Tier III engine emissions requirement without sacrificing performance, durability or reliability. It’s also the same engine that has proven reliability in thousands of on- and off-highway Caterpillar machines over the past few years.
The principle behind ACERT technology is actually quite simple. By offering better control of the combustion process, emissions are minimized and performance improved without the need for extra filters or exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) technology.
With 538 cubic inches (8.8 L) of displacement and 52% PTO torque rise, the Cat C9 ACERT engine delivers exceptional pulling power in all conditions. Engine power growth up to 8% will have you downshifting a lot less frequently, too.
New to the “C” Series is an engine speed switch that allows the operator to select two memory settings for consistent engine speed during field operations and/or headland turns.
Shift to greater productivity
It takes a special transmission for a track tractor. The 16F X 4R electronically controlled powershift used in the MT700C Series was extensively tested in tough, real-world situations like yours before it was ever released to production. Since then, it’s been proven reliable in hundreds of thousands of hours of field use.
Still, nothing is left to chance. So every powertrain is retested at the factory to ensure it meets Challenger specifications before going into an MT700C Series tractor.
Eight gears in the popular 6.5 to 14.9 km/h operating range provide the responsiveness and productivity your applications need. Closely spaced gear splits, concentrated in the primary working range, were designed with the engine torque rise and operating rpm in mind to deliver the most usable power.
Designed to get the job done faster and more efficiently, Power Management is a control strategy that coordinates engine speed with transmission and hitch settings in a choice of two modes. A rocker switch on the TMC console lets you select or change modes to quickly match operating conditions.
The industry leader in track technology
If you think all track systems are pretty much the same, think again. There’s a reason Challenger’s Mobil-trac system is the most comfortable and most productive system in the world. At 2,438 mm, Challenger’s Mobil-trac system wheelbase is the longest in its power class. That means tractor weight is distributed over a greater area, reducing the deep compaction that restricts plant root growth.
The long footprint and low rolling resistance also transfers more power to the ground for greater pulling ability. All the while, you’re assured of the speed and mobility benefits that owners have come to expect from Challenger track tractors.
Superior traction is just one of the benefits of the Challenger Mobil-trac system. One ride in the MT700C and you’ll discover that unsurpassed comfort is another. Fatigue and distraction are only a couple of the effects of long days and rough fields. The Challenger Mobil-trac system helps combat both issues. Thanks to our exclusive Opti-Ride suspension and five-axle design, which literally molds the track to every ridge, bump and rut the tractor encounters, the operator experiences a softer ride.
A higher standard in hydraulic power
Challenger MT700C Series tractors are as big on hydraulic power as they are on raw horsepower, meeting not only today’s demanding standards, but those expected in the future.
Equipped with a redesigned closed-center, load-sensing, pressure-flow compensating system, MT700C Series models offer an industry-leading 165 l/min pump as a standard feature. For truly demanding applications, Challenger offers a 224 l/min pump option that doesn’t make you choose between pulling power and hydraulic flow. A new common midstack design also centralizes control valves for all tractor functions simplifying the entire hydraulic system.
The new TMC display is used to control all remote implement valves allowing the operator to electronically adjust flow rates; adjust timed detents, and precisely adjust individual valve operation. The redesigned system, which utilizes a separate controller built into each valve, even allows the operator to direct continuous flow up to 136.3 l/min through any one coupler. This is particularly important in applications like sowing, where uninterrupted oil flow to a hydraulically driven vacuum system is critical.
Welcome to your new office
Step into the MT700C Series cab and you’ll swear the “C” stands for comfort, control and convenience. Stretch out in 108 cubic feet (3.06 m3) of space — more cubic feet of luxury than all others in its power class. However, it’s what you don’t see that really sets the new “C” Series tractors apart from other tractors in their class.
The entire machine is ISOBUS compliant, which culminates in the cab in the form of unprecedented control and monitoring of your tractor and implement functions and operation. The all new TMC display found in the MT700C Series is comprised of a color screen, 12 re-programmable soft keys, and a rotary dial. This ISOBUS compliant unit allows the operator to monitor and manage all tractor functions, track service intervals, manage the Auto-Guide system, and collect valuable data for total farm management...all from one convenient location.
The TMC display also controls ISOBUS compliant implements, such as air seeders or sprayers without the need for additional consoles, wiring harnesses, and control boxes. Simply plug and play for seamless operation.
