Dear Support Team,
Please escalate this ticket immediately to the responsible engineering and management levels.
In our region (Switzerland), we strictly rely on stable and dependable terrain tracks. The current situation is extremely frustrating for both us and our customers: over the past few weeks, our Yarbo units have been throwing/losing their tracks one after another at irregular intervals.
Based on our on-site analysis, there are two root causes that require urgent attention:
-
Material Softening due to Heat: With current summer temperatures exceeding 30°C, the track material becomes far too soft. We urgently need a solution here—specifically, a heat-resistant, harder compound material.
-
Inadequate Track Guidance: Additionally, the current track guidance system is not robust enough to prevent the softened tracks from slipping off. A mechanical optimization of the guidance mechanism is required.
Since our ongoing operations are severely disrupted, we expect a prompt response and concrete proposals for a solution.
Sincerely,
Jörg Schüpbach
