- Works with all existing rate controllers
- You can utilize all of the existing rate controllers boom sections without buying additional valves.
- For example Agleaders new isobus rate controllers will be capable of controlling 36 boom sections.
- The system is expandable with the addition of extra modules
- System control is done with a small display in the cab of the tractor
- An automatic boom height control can also be ran on the same system with the addition of some hydraulic valves and ultrasonic sensors.
Additional system possibility’s
- Pressure control for variable rate application of liquid fertilizers
- Eliminates the problem of large system pressure fluctuations for large changes in volume of liquid fertilizers applied.
- Also giving you much more precise autoswath control up to 36 sections
- Currently we are testing an application for NH3 to maintain liquid ammonia all the way to the shank. Greatly reducing volume differences shank to shank.
- Achieving close to single boom section per a shank up to 36 sections
Benefits to PWM pressure control
- Uniform droplet size control
- Reduced spray drift
- Increased number of boom sections
- How PWM works
System Price
- Currently there are 3 other manufactures with similar systems
- The price for these systems have been roughly $200 a foot for a sprayer
- My target price is in the $100 to $120 a foot range.
- This is dependent on the particular system and options.
