Case IH – AFS Harvest Command
Tech Specs: The new Case IH AFS Harvest Command allows for better diagnosis and service intervals to help farmers in downtime and receive timely updates. It can use 16 different sensors to make 7 different, key combine function changes. These include ground speed, rotor speed, pre-sieve, top-sieve, fan speed, lower-sieve and then, cage vane angle position as well. The new system also features an exclusive, patented, sieve pressure sensor to measure pressure differential between the upper and lower sieve to get a better readout on sieve operation for operators.
Compatibility Index: Available Factory-Installed
Farmers can know if they have a sieve off-loss condition or blowout losses and then the sensors constantly optimize the machine before losses occur.
IntelliFarms – FieldDataManager
Tech Specs: IntelliFarms’ FieldDataManager reports real-time field data and weather conditions, measuring above and below ground for a comprehensive understanding of what’s going on in your fields. Through the weather station and wireless soil probe network, it measures rainfall, temperature, wind speed and direction, growing degree units (GDU) and much more. It captures the data directly from the soil, establishes wilt and saturation points and gives farmers precise moisture availability at all times. The data is then applied to crop-specific energy curves, providing in-depth tracking and reporting on how crops are advancing.
Compatibility Index: Available as Aftermarket Product
With specific field data gathered and then applied to the energy curves, FieldDataManager allows farmers to make the best decisions for planting, irrigating, applying nutrients and harvesting.
