Operating name: KMC-Kootrac/Kootenay Tractor
In 1988 Kootenay Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (KMC) acquired exclusive
worldwide rights to manufacture, market and service the KMC/FMC
Track Vehicles. KMC facilities are located on a two-acre site
in Crescent Valley, B.C.. This property includes buildings that house engineering and manufacturing facilities, a parts warehouse, component and machine assembly and administration and marketing offices. Crescent Valley is located in the heart of the steep slope logging areas of B.C. The "new generation" KMC 1000 and 2000 series tracked Vehicle is a specialized tool designed for a niche market to traverse on steep slopes and sensitive areas as well as in wet or boggy conditions. This KMC Track Vehicler can work in areas without skid roads. KMC is the only manufacturer of the fast track, low-ground pressure vehicle.
The primary design characteristics of the KMC HSST Vehicles are
balanced weight distribution, torsion bar suspension and "live"
steel track. The forward mounting of the power train and
extendible arch provide a favourable weight distribution.
Torsion bars, attached individually to road-arms, provide sprung
suspension. Each set of road wheels move independently, thereby
allowing the tracks to conform to uneven surfaces. The high
strength, cast steel track pads, connected with rubber-bushed
steel pins, permit track flexibility, yet prevent metal-to-metal
wear and soil contamination. This concept meets current
environmental timber harvesting guidelines. Because of its light
flotation and low ground pressure, the KMC Vehicle has excellent
ground tractability, resulting in minimal soil disturbance and
compaction, with a smoother ride. It is able to combine larger
payloads with higher speeds for increased productivity. The need
for this type of vehicle is recognized internationally.
