WPT has a long history in the agricultural market<\/a>, with irrigation being one of the primary applications that we service. From produce such as citrus, cotton, soybeans, and many others, WPT has maintained a strong relationship with farmers throughout North America and abroad. Major agricultural users of our Power Take Off units, not surprisingly, are the sugar cane growers. One large sugar cane producer in the Southeast region of the US chose the WPT Pilotless\u00ae PTO for their \u201cnew standard\u201d of mechanical clutch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pilotless\u00ae PTO handles the irrigation demands required on sugar cane fields.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Managing several miles of irrigation canals to irrigate over 230,000 acres of sugar cane is no small feat. Having dependable equipment for such an operation is paramount. After years of being plagued with maintenance issues and troublesome pilot bearing failures, this grower turned to WPT for solutions. We were able to demonstrate to this large farm operation the numerous advantages of the Pilotless\u00ae Mechanical PTO<\/a> and how it can reduce downtime and increase their profit margins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From offering increased side load capabilities to minimizing wear and maintenance points, the use of WPT\u2019s Pilotless has proven to decrease failures and downtime. Using the Pilotless\u00ae has also enabled them to standardize their fleet by eliminating the need to stock separate models to accommodate both in-line and sideload applications. The combination of eliminating the pilot bearing, utilizing a sealed-for-life ball bearing collar, and replacing the standard tapered roller bearings with heavy-duty dual, spherical roller main bearings has put the WPT Pilotless<\/a>\u00ae head and shoulders above the competition in both performance and reduced maintenance requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well into their second year of converting the remaining fleet to <\/span>the\u00a0WPT Pilotless\u00ae Power Take-Off, the grower has already realized significant improvements, making their ownership more cost-efficient. A third-party service dealer and engine packager for the grower stated, \u201cThe WPT Pilotless\u00ae has done such a good job here in the cane fields, our customers will not accept any other PTO on the power units that we provide\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
