Fully automatic boom control systems
AutoTerrain and ActiveSlant are fully automatic boom control systems that regulates height, slant, tilt and yaw to ensure exceptional boom stability by preventing, not correcting, unwanted movements.
Ultrasonic and roll sensors adjust before disturbances occur, reducing wear on sprayer and operator while extending service life. AutoTerrain performs reliably at low heights and speeds over 15 km/h, keeping the boom level even on headlands and preventing ground contact. The systems ensure precise application, improving crop protection, reducing drift, minimising waste, saving costs, and enhancing operator comfort and productivity.
The AutoTerrain system has been tested under rigorous field conditions, showing excellent performance when spraying with low boom heights at high driving speeds of more than 15 km/h. When turning on the headland, the system will counter the boom’s natural pendulum tendency to dip on the inner side. The result is a level boom throughout the turn. AutoTerrain all but eliminates the risk of the boom hitting the ground.
AutoTerrain - For more challenging field conditions
- Boom height
- Hydraulic slant
- Individual tilt of boom wings and NegativeTilt
- 3 or 5 ultrasonic sensors with integrated roll sensors
- Tempature-controlled proportinal valves
- Optional extra on all booms
A stable boom means less wear and tear on the sprayer as well as its operator. The sprayer will have a longer lifespan, and the operator will experience less fatigue and stress from having to constantly monitor the boom.
ActiveSlant - For less challenging field conditions
- ActiveSlant controls boom height and slant.
- Boom height
- Hydraulic slant
- 2 ultrasonic sensors with integrated roll sensors
- Optional extra on all booms
