BUENOS AIRES,ARGENTINA, MARCH 2020 — To continue supporting the agricultural sector, Allison Transmission, the largest global manufacturer of medium- and heavy-duty fully automatic transmissions, will participate in ExpoAgro 2020, the largest
agribusiness exhibition in the country. The event is held at Autodromo de San Nicolás RN9, Km 225, from March 10 to 13 and Allison is at booth N° 963.
Allison has been working with the agricultural sector since 2015. Leading brands such as Metalfor, Pla, Caiman, Ombu and Praba have chosen the Allison 2500 Series™ transmission for their agriculture sprayers due to the delivered quality and durability of the system.
Agricultural sprayers benefit from the use of Allison fully automatic transmissions. They are ideal to move through a wide variety of soils—which can vary from firm and dusty, to muddy, very wet and soft. Allison transmissions can be adjusted
depending on the weight, speed and terrain conditions so it will better suit the machinery.
Another characteristic from the agribusiness sector is time – it’s crucial when fertilizing or pulverizing the soil that the equipment will not break down. Allison transmissions are built under precise standards that allow operating in the most stringent conditions. They require minimal maintenance because their torque converters don’t wear as with manual or automated manual transmissions (AMT). Operational and repair costs decrease and the time the machine is in operation increases. Additionally, the costs of maintaining an Allison Automatic compared to an AMT are much lower.
