The American agricultural machinery manufacturer Allis-Chalmers commenced its manufacturing operations in the 1840s and quickly rose to prominence after merging with two other companies, becoming a leading enterprise in its hometown of Milwaukee. The company’s presence in Milwaukee was so significant that its plants became landmarks, with the “West” plant even lending its name to West Allis, Wisconsin. In 1914, Allis-Chalmers diversified into agricultural equipment and played a role in projects such as uranium separation and the construction of electric motors for submarines during the World Wars.
Allis-Chalmers introduced various product lines, including agricultural tractors, industrial tractors, combines, turbines, process equipment and garden tractors. Acquisitions followed in 1928, including the Monarch Tractor Company, Advance-Rumely in 1931, and Buda Engine Co. in 1953. In 1952, Allis-Chalmers acquired LaPlant Manufactures and formed a joint venture, Fiat-Allis, with the Fiat Tractor Company in 1974.
Facing economic challenges in the 1980s, the company sold its agricultural division to the German company KHD (Klöckner-Humboldt-Deutz) AG in 1985, becoming Deutz-Allis. However, due to substantial losses, Deutz-Allis was dissolved shortly after, leading to the formation of the successful and ongoing Allis-Gleaner Corporation (AGCO). The Allis-Chalmers brand name was not reintroduced; AGCO, following numerous acquisitions, now markets tractor brands such as Fendt, Valtra, and Massey Ferguson.
Allis-Chalmers left a legacy of tractors, including models like 10-18, U, B, WC, WD, WD-45, D Series, 7000 Series, 8000 Series, 6000 Series and 5000 Series. Despite the challenges in the 1980s, Allis-Chalmers is recognized for its contribution to the American agricultural machinery industry, with many of its tractors still valued by enthusiasts today.
The included 7000 Series in this mod features an impressive lineup of tractors produced from 1974 to 1981. Each model in this series boasts powerful Allis-Chalmers 6-cylinder engines and provides a wide range of power levels for various agricultural needs.
