600 polar W

Winch performance at a whole new level

Representative of a new generation. Pioneer and milestone. Dream machine. This is what can happen when a manufacturer develops a snow groomer in close cooperation with its customers. With the PistenBully 600 Polar W, we have jointly succeeded in setting new standards. In terms of power and performance. In efficiency, operation and comfort. The new PistenBully 600 Polar W raises winching on mountain to a whole new level.. And more environmentally friendly.

The PistenBully 600 Polar W is more than just a normal snow groomer. It stands not only for perfect slopes, but for sustainable and efficient slope management at the very highest level.

The chains of the PistenBully 600 Polar W for every application.

Tracks for every application

As flexible as a Swiss army knife, our undercarriage in combination with the chain can be adusted to all customer requirements and thus offers the perfect solution for every application, regardless of what is importantpushing, climbing, turning, or winching,

Combination equipment carrier

The combination equipment carrier is the "one for all" solution. Thanks to the SlopeTracer, it can follow the slope in parallel or slope contour mode. The Autotracer provides additional side-to-side support and perfect lateral tracking. Thus another must-have for the perfect slope.

The quick-change system of the PistenBully 600 Polar W.

Quick-mount system

Packed with stronger cylinders, load check valves and hydraulic pipe protection, the new quick-change system enables the highest attachment torques required for snowgun transport or pipe cutter tools. Of course, the unrestricted mobility is still maintained.

SNOWsat

SNOWsat snow depth measurement provides a precise overview of the snow situation in the ski area. Only if you know the snow depths everywhere on the slopes can you move snow in a targeted manner. The result: perfect slopes for your guests every day, increased productivity, enormous cost savings, careful use of resources and increased work and operational safety.
 

But: SNOWsat is more than just snow depth measurement. Discover all SNOWsat solutions!

Assistance systems

Assistenzsystem des PistenBully 600 W: AutoTracer
MAXIMUM TRACKING STABILITY

AutoTracer

Rear implement carrier with intelligent, active steering assistance. Possible in both rigid position (fixed) and floating position (relieved). When activated the tiller follows the 600W in the same curve radius. Automatic countersteering on side slopes. For automatic support and relief of the driver!

Assistenzsystem des PistenBully 600 W: SlopeTracer
IDEAL GROUND FOLLOWING

SlopeTracer

Intelligent control of the rear implement carrier. Can be used like a parallel tool carrier via software. Ensures perfect ground adaptation of the tiller in hilly terrain and automatically adjusts the milling depth. The patented SlopeTracer simplifies operation and enables very large movement radii.

RESOURCE-CONSERVING SNOW MANAGEMENT

SNOWsat snow depth measurement

The high-precision snow depth measurement helps the operator detect slope areas with small amounts of snow and identify snow reserves – under, in front of and on both sides of the vehicle. This way snow can be pushed with precision and maximum quality can be achieved for the slope structure. Increases productivity while conserving resources and helping to preserve the environment.

Assistenzsystem des PistenBully 600 W: AutoWinch
OPTIMAL PULLING FORCE

AutoWinch

Intelligent winch with automatic tension control. Can be switched onat the panel. Synchronizes travel speed and rope speed to each other. In the event of a deviation, for example due to slippage, the tractive force is increased and automatically can be overridden manually if required. Protects the winch rope and aides the driver.
