RiteDepth - Root Crop Automatic Depth and Distance Controllers
From Agriculture Electronic Control Product
The RiteDepth system provides automatic, accurate and consistent depth and distance control on root crop harvesters and vegetable flail mowers (toppers). The system works with one or two rugged sonar sensors mounted to read off the top of the row and connected to the share mounting frame. Signals from the sensors are interpreted by a small controller which automatically lifts and lowers the share frame as needed. This maintains a very consistent digging depth even when the harvester works in hilly or uneven terrain or when soil conditions change (from dry to wet or from packed to loose soil).
Products Details
Digging depth or topper distance control are among the most important factors in optimising equipment performance and marketable yield. Gauge wheels or rollers are common mechanical devices used to achieve the correct depth or distance. These systems have limited versatility requiring the operator to make frequent on-the-go adjustments. The RiteDepth system automates the adjustments, improving performance and easing operator stress.
