Cost

Basic Structure

LT-frame-BOM.jpg

This is about a buck fifty per pound of the 2214 lb machine, or about the going price of tomatoes. That is without the PowerCube. If you use an off-shelf 18 hp engine – the price may be $1225 ($500 for 18 hp engine + $200 pump + $225 frame + $300 balance of system). The total is then $4808.

Front Loader

  • Heavy duty front loader arm metal (3/8″x3″x6″ rectangular tube) – $500
  • Cylinders – $600
  • Control valve – $200
  • Hoses – $100
  • Couplers and fittings – $100
  • Quick Attach plate – $150Cushion valve – $66

TOTAL FRONT LOADER COST – $1716

Rear Loader

  • Rear Loader Cylinders – $520
  • Heavy duty rear loader arm metal (3/8″x3″x6″ rectangular tube)- $340
  • Selector valve (4) – $180
  • Quick attach plate – $150
  • Cushion valve – $66

TOTAL REAR LOADER COST – $1256

Steel Tracks

  • Chain - 80 feet - $270 at $3.37/foot
  • Links - $28
  • Rebar - 140' at $1.57/foot - $220

TOTAL for Wheel Tracks - $518

Quick Attach Plates

Quick attach plate with levers.

(See Open Pario for design)

  • [6]1"x5" pins (30") - $10
  • [129"] 3/16"x3" sq tubing - $46
  • [113"] 1/2"x3" flat - $34
  • [6"] 1" DOM tubing - $15
  • [24"] 1" rebar - $3
  • [66"] 1/4"x2" flat - $6
  • [6"] 1/2" rebar - $1
  • [15"] 3/4" threaded rod - $3
  • [8] 3/4" lock nuts - $1.60
  • [2] 3/4" nuts - $0.40

MATERIALS FOR EACH QA PLATE - $124

Overall cost for a dual loader tractor – wheel base of about 7×7 feet, designed to handle 3 Power Cubes, for a power limit up to approximately 150 hp – $6550 without the PowerCubes. Design is absolutely scalable, such that a half-size version – or MicroTrac, may be made – and it can be designed readily from our Blender model drawings.

Package Options

Package 1

  • Basic 4 wheel drive tractor - $3583
  • Tracks - $520
  • Front loader with quick attach plate- $1840 (with quick attach plate)
  • Power Cube - $1236 for 18 hp

Total cost is $7179 in materials. The 18 hp may be undersized, so we recommend 2 PowerCubes for 35 hp

Package 2

  • Basic 4 wheel drive tractor - $3583
  • Tracks - $520
  • Front loader with quick attach plate- $1840
  • Quick Attach plate - $124
  • Front loader bucket - $400
  • 2 Power Cubes - $2472 for 35 hp

Total cost is $8815 in materials fpr 35 hp.

Package 3

Now here’s the good part. We aim to develop the induction furnace within 2 years, with which we will be able to produce all tractor structure and components, minus the rubber parts, from scrap steel. This means that we will demonstrate how to build a tractor at the cost of scrap metal plus rubber, plus energy to run the induction furnace. This should be about $1k in materials such as hoses and hydraulic seals, plus labor. This indicates a possibility of closing the industrial divide between the developed and developing worlds.
