On-Demand Drive System
The Black Bruin On-Demand Drive System is a complete transmission solution for tractor-driven trailers and working equipment. The system enables smooth operation of the equipment and is designed for agricultural, forestry and earth-moving applications which often require tractive power in harsh conditions and varying terrain. Trailers with driven wheels offer many advantages for tractor operators. The additional traction makes it possible to extend the season or perform tasks in conditions that normally would halt work. It also prevents trailers from sinking into wet fields or forests, avoiding damage to arable land or tree roots. Trailers with driven axles even save fuel, as heavy loads can be pulled more easily. The biggest savings are generated by the fact that a smaller tractor can be used to pull the same load.

Black Bruin control systems include functions for various operating situations for off-road use: Driving direction selection, tractive power adjustment, speed range control, freewheeling, and assisting traction control (ATC).
CTR201 control system utilizes the tractor’s ISOBUS which provides the system with all the data needed to control the trailer’s wheel motors, such as the tractor’s direction and speed.
CTR101 offers either manual control or automation based on speed sensors in motors.
