Navigation
The work of the business executive needs to be optimized. This function is successfully performed by GPS systems that have appeared relatively recently but have already gained popularity among farmers. More and more enterprises are starting to use GPS satellite technology because it allows them to get more benefits from the exploitation of agricultural land.
There are practically no impossible tasks for them. They allow you to correct all the important nuances when working on the land. So, a navigator for a tractor, seeder, harvester allows you to:
- Perform the required amount of work in a shorter period;
- Work both in daylight and at night;
- Handle curvilinear fields;
- Perform work in any weather, even with poor visibility;
- Ideally accurately handle level land;
- Return to the starting point to continue work;
- To record the number of treated hectares per day;
- Calculate the distance traveled;
- Measure the area of the field;
- Save labor resources and fuel.
Each navigator is designed for a specific machine. After finishing work, you can watch the video of the driving process. Job cards are also saved and can be viewed on a PC.
The line guides aim to process fields without flaws. They can be used for spreading fertilizers, cultivating, spraying, harvesting. After all, even an excellent specialist cannot always take into account all the nuances of the work process overnight.
The navigator uses the global positioning system for its work. To improve the quality and accuracy of work, the GPS signal is corrected. It can also be supplemented with a GLONASS signal. The devices are capable of operating 24 hours a day without losing the signal.
The system calculates exactly where the field equipment is located and advises the operator on which direction to turn the steering wheel. Such adjustment of the performer’s work is convenient for moving in a straight line, it allows you not to make gaps between the rows. The advent of the invention neutralized the importance of markers and manual marking. They simply ceased to be needed.
The area that the business executive has already worked is painted over with a certain color on the screen of the parallel driving system. The latter is protected from moisture, dust, and mechanical damage, due to which it works efficiently and reliably. To determine the area of the field, it is enough to go around the land plot around the perimeter.
On-screen and voice prompt allows you to drive along a given trajectory. If the system detects deviations from the course, it immediately signals this. The capture width can be any.
A special indicator displays the angle of rotation of the wheels. The direction of movement can be adjusted. The machine guides along parallel tracks automatically. The work planning process involves downloading the available data on sites and tasks, with the aim of their subsequent use.
Anyone can learn to use a tractor navigator. There is no need to complete courses to master the necessary information. The intuitive interface allows you to navigate tolerably in the principle of operation of the device already after 10 minutes. The basic settings have already been entered into the device. The farmer can only change the width of the implement.
