Abstract

This study evaluated the performance of a microtractor implemented in three different operational types. A microtractor chassis was alternately operated with a three-phase electric engine (MCA), a direct-current electric engine (MCC) and an internal combustion engine (MCI). The rehearsals of the microtractor implemented in each one of the engines allowed determinations of the maximum tractive force, the forward speed and the fuel consumption in wheel skiddings. The MCC developed greater snatch force, being 22% superior to the others. The specific consumption on energy for the microtractors decreased as the skiddings increased.
