Description
Summary:The article presents an analysis of the design solutions of the running gear with rubber tracks in terms of their applicability in high-speed engineering machines that require intensive maneuvering and the ability to develop high tractive forces. Both solutions used in civil applications and the results of research on the use of rubber tracks in heavy armored vehicles were analyzed. On their basis, recommendations were formulated for the design of high-speed engineering machines and the rubber track systems used in them. Keywords: mechanical engineering, elastomer tracks, running gear, high-speed engineering machines
