According to Bobcat, this is the first roller suspension system with an all-steel design and the first with steel imbed tracks. The rollers are made of forged steel and the springs are shot-peened steel for strength and durability, the company says. Additionally, the rollers are suspended by high-strength steel leaf springs to reduce vibration and improve operator comfort, the company adds.
The roller suspension system also feature a drive motor and hydraulic lines that are kept in fixed position and the drive motor’s housing is hidden to limit exposure to debris such as mud or sticks that could damage the machine.
The design of the roller suspension system also includes features that make it easier to keep the undercarriage clean, including a larger area around the drive sprocket and clean-out holes.
