From the field to the shelf: microsonic ultrasonic sensors convince when used in both field and orchard-based harvesting applications and automated livestock farming.
Our ultrasonic sensors help farmers to sow and plant exactly. Fertilize fields and orchards with the highest accuracy and then harvest the crop precisely and safely.
Feed animals automatically with precise fodder dosing. Clean stall walkways automatically and improve levels of hygiene.
Let's talk about your task. With ultrasonic sensors, we create groundbreaking solutions. In all possible applications. Sometimes even in impossible ones.
Our mic ultrasonic sensors or pico+ ultrasonic sensors measure the lateral distance to vines or trellises. The control system automatically adjusts the guidance of the working platform, thereby allowing harvesting machines to drive through rows of vines or trellises evenly.
Several wms ultrasonic sensors or mic ultrasonic sensors continuously measure the distance to the crop to ensure height regulation of the field sprayer. The field sprayer control system uses the measured distance values to compensate for unevenness in the soil or different plant heights. This allows for the even distribution of pesticides or fertilizers.
The all-metal housing of the two sensor families is specially designed for outdoor applications on agricultural machines.
Feed sliders are used for the automatic feeding of cows in stalls, dosing the required amount of feed and pushing it if necessary.
mic ultrasonic sensors or lcs+ ultrasonic sensors measure the distance to the gate and the animals from the feed pusher; these values are used to order the feeding robot to push the requisite amount of fresh feed.
The use of a warehouse filler to fill crops in a bunker ensures their even distribution. Several lcs+ ultrasonic sensors permanently measure the distance to the walls to avoid a collision with the walls in the bunker. cube ultrasonic sensors can be used as an alternative.
The control system detects the distance values and regulates the alignment of the warehouse filler. This ensures that the crops are stored safely and that the warehouse filler does not collide with the walls.
Cleaning or manure removal robots are deployed for the automatic cleaning of walkways and slatted floors in cow barns.
crm+ ultrasonic sensors on the cleaning robot measure the distance to the gate and the animals. Using the measured distance values, the cleaning robot works reliably to ensure hygiene.
Ultrasonic sensors with a switching output can be used to perform film tear monitoring. We recommend the use of pico+ ultrasonic sensors in cramped installation conditions. If the diameter of the film roll is also to be monitored, an ultrasonic sensor with analogue output can be used.
Deployed to detect the spraying areas, several cube ultrasonic sensors or mic ultrasonic sensors continuously detect the tree rows or trellises. This means that spraying areas can be added or removed automatically via the control system. This minimizes the use of pesticides and ensures their even distribution.
