At Agritechnica, the international agricultural machinery exhibition to be held in Hanover from 12 to 18 November, Dieci will present a world preview of its news 2018 cab concept, an exclusive design by the Giugiaro design brand, further underscoring the Dieci construction ethos and its ability to deliver a winning combination of efficiency, innovation and style.

The interiors of the new cab have been created entirely in soft touch materials of automotive pedigree, offering an exceptionally tactile surface combined with structural stiffness that reduces the transmission of vibration and improves thermal and acoustic insulation properties.

The various components are injection moulded, a procedure that makes it possible to reduce the number of parts while maximising their dimensional precision, thus facilitating the assembly stage, increasing structural rigidity and enhancing the perception of the aesthetic quality of the new design.

In addition, the use of delicate colours helps to brighten the cab interior for optimal visibility. The hallmark comfort of Dieci cabs has been further enhanced with the adoption of a new shock absorber system (designed to smooth out the harshest oscillations efficiently, even when negotiating rough terrain) and a new air conditioning system that guarantees a level of air distribution uniformity like no other telehandler model, thanks to advanced fluid dynamic studies with CFD simulations.

Also the cab's ergonomic design was subject to painstaking analysis, resulting in a rational instrumentation layout and the adoption of an adjustable armrest for the new joystick.

The joystick also incorporates the fwd/rev selector (FNR reverse shuttle) for easier and more practical direction control. The CANBus system establishes the optimal work and safety parameters by means of in-depth diagnostics, showing the values on the new 7” LCD display in real time, thereby allowing the operator to keep track of all the necessary information to monitor the vehicle and its systems in a detailed and intuitive manner.

The vehicle’s electronic control system (fully integrated) is an exclusive Dieci feature.

The switches are back-lit, and all vehicle control functions (Steering mode, RPM control, Travel speed and Diagnostics) are managed by a single control unit.

The new cabs will be available in two versions - Standard and Deluxe - and starting from the second half of 2018 they will be installed on new agricultural range vehicles for the European and North American markets.
