200D Chain Case
Chain Case
- All NEW Nortec chain case. This robust chain case will give you years of
- durability. 20 years of soil processor knowledge went into engineering and
- design of this all new chain case. Slip clutch has been relocated on the chain
- case for faster reaction time. The top jackshaft is a Nortec designed and
- manufactured component.
- All new push (compression) tensioner system.
- This is an up-grade from the old style pull (hook) system.
Oil Filled Chain Case vs Dry Chain Case
Definitely oil filled chain case is far superior then a dry chain case. Several reasons - 1) Longer chain life. 2) Less maintenance. No need to lubricate the chain. It’s self-lubricating. 3) Oil filled chain case keeps the oil in and the CONTAMINANT OUT. 4) In the future if any major repairs such as bearing or sprocket replacement is needed, these items running in oil will make removal easy. Whereas a dry chain case allows dirt and moisture to enter the chain case leading to rust of components, making parts removal difficult. So why would a manufacturer even offer a dry chain case? This is a 2-part answer. First is cost. A dry chain case is a fraction of the cost of an oil filled chain case to manufacture. Second, unless a manufacturer knows what they’re doing and has the engineering knowledge, they will fail on designing an oil filled chain case.

200E Outboard Slip Clutch
Outboard Mounted Slip Clutch
For years our slip clutch has been in front of the gear box. PTO off tractor to
slip clutch mounted on inputshaft of gear box. Through advanced
engineering discovery, Nortec has found out this is incorrect location.
Once discovered, this was not an easy fix. It involved a major design change and Nortec is pleased to announce outboard chain case mounted slip clutch. This is a vast improvement to the new release Raptor. So why is this location so important? Slip clutch reacts in milliseconds. The further away from the rotor the slip clutch is placed the more reaction time it takes for the slip clutch to react. Under normal conditions the unknown to the operator there is movement inside the slip clutch. The fiber disk is slipping under load. Coming off the rotor is a condition known as back-lashing. The rotor back-lashing is transmitting torque through the chain case to the cross over drive shaft into the gear box and finally to the slip clutch. Over time this will damage the drive system weather it’s the chain or gear box and even affects the bearings.

200F Material End Shields
Material End Shields "Quick Flip"
Kink Bent Side Shields for added strength and durability.
NEW STYLE: Attention to the smallest detail went into engineering the
Raptor Soil Processor. Material end shields may be damaged by hooking
rocks and roots. Nortec solved this problem by first using a new
manufacturing technique called kink bending. This procedure will vastly
increase strength. Second the leading bottom edge of the material side shield
is rounded. This acts as a ski reducing end shield from hooking. The ski
design also aids in jumping which may occur in a straight non rounded design.

- OLD STYLE: Bent side shields not only costs you down time it’s another
added expense. Here’s some comparisons between the old style and the
new style end shields. Notice the point of damage (bending) has now been
extremely improved and strengthen with a simple kink bend. We also
cleaned up on the holding pin. Much improved pin removal. Thanks to the
new box side frame the lower end shields now is positioned against the
frame. The old style had NO reinforcement structure to butt up against.
NEW STYLE End Shield Location:
The new Pro Raptor relocated the end shield mounts from the inner frame to
the chain case.
Reduces material push out, added strength. Also notice the longer end shield
for added material capacity and more productivity.

Frame: 4"x4" Structural Steel
Just as your home is built on a foundation, all of the other elements that make up your home, such as the floor structure, walls, staircase, electrical system, and plumbing are either attached to the foundation or use it as a reference point in their design and fabrication. That’s why the Nortec frame must be so precisely engineered and manufactured – to ensure that all of the sub components that must be attached can be assembled to the Raptor with perfect fit and finish, and provide flawless performance for the life of the processor.

Rotors
20 years of designing and manufacturing Soil Processor Nortec has learned a thing or two. What works and what does not work in designing the ultimate rotor. Nortec offers two styles of rotors. First is the landscaping rotor. Designed for rocks and debris. Second rotor is a processing rotor for excellent grinding.
- All Super Duty Pro Raptors feature an industry exclusive processing rotor. This
- replaceable carbide tooth rotor will offer you years of excellent wear ability.

Click on Video Below: Processing Rotor Action
Several key performance features and design in this video.
(1) Notice the excellent grinding action
(2) Thanks too our new Gear Reduction Gear Box. The new Raptor has a much lower rotor speed. Instead of throwing material we are now processing the material. Reason this is so important is the fact the lower rotor speed allows the tooth to achieve its processing / grinding action. Unlike a high speed rotor which will throws the material away from the tooth not allowing it time to process. The low speed rotor will also reduce rock throwing.
(3) Low speed rotor offers a much cooler tooth temperatures which in turn increases tooth life.
(4) 40% more POWER
(5) Notice how smooth the rotor is. 2 Reason for the smooth rotor action. First all rotors are balanced. Second tooth placement. The cork screw tooth placement is a huge advancement in performance.
(6) Notice the reduced material windowing in the angle position. Reason this is so important is. Most rotor designs do not allow grinding action (material break down) which in turn flows out the side leaving windrows. Reason for the reduced windowing on the Raptor is for the fact much of the material is processed and flows threw the rotor. This new design break though allows for a much more efficient material grinding action.

Fine Tooth Processing Rotor
Fine Tooth Processing Rotor
Notice the smooth processing action. Thanks to the NEW tooth placement this provides smooth, aggressive soil processing action. Take notice in this hard pack "Sod" condition there is little to NO jumping. Also notice how fine the material is being processed. This new Raptor is extremely POWERFUL due to the new Power Gearing.
Also take note on the NEW rear processing blade. Once the processed material flows though and over the rotor, material enters into the second stage of processing. The blade will now grade and level the processed material leaving a smooth surface.
