Topcon – Norac Tillage Depth Control System

Tech Specs: Topcon’s Norac Tillage Depth Control (TDC) System utilizes ultrasonic sensors to automatically compensate for differing soil types and terrains, while maintaining the correct implement depth. The system is designed to turn tillage into a high-tech operation, regardless of tractor type. It is designed as a “set it and forget it” system that will automatically hit the correct cutting depth in all conditions and terrains. In addition, operators can expect more accuracy than competitive systems, due to the patented technology powering the Norac ultrasonic sensors. The system is not confined to any one brand, age or model of tillage equipment, nor is it reliant on a Topcon display for operation. It can be installed on any trailed tillage tool with hydraulic lift and utilize a factory display that supports ISOBUS Virtual Terminal functionality.

The automatic system reduces soil compaction and slippage in wet conditions, as well as increasing fuel and time efficiencies in the field.
