IGRADE JOHN DEERE SOFTWARE
This new hardware has resulted in improvements to several software applications. Compaction and crop disturbance are also reduced as AIG keeps the implement and tractor on the same guidance path.įrom November 2019, both the John Deere Application Controller 1100 and Application Controller 1120 were replaced with a new version of the hardware. Precise seed placement provides a straighter path for subsequent passes throughout the season. Risk is also minimised when seed is planted with AIG. The ability to turn the implement steering mechanism manually in tight spaces through simple fingertip controls.Īll of these benefits result in, “more uptime for the equipment – and an operator who is more alert throughout the day,” says Spaumer.Freeing the operator to look for obstacles such as rocks, washouts, or holes caused by broken tile lines.Closer monitoring of parts, enabling proactive – rather than reactive – maintenance.Other operator benefits of John Deere’s enhanced AIG include: At the end of the season, the results are better crop quality and improved yield. This system is optimal for first-pass applications like pre-season nutrient dressing, tillage, planting and seeding, or strip-tilling. In addition, passive AutoTrac Implement Guidance allows machinery to travel off guidance lines, “meaning that no steering mechanism is needed to keep the implement on the intended path,” says Spaumer. Using AutoTrac and AIG together greatly reduces the strain on the operator because the system accurately guides the implement to execute optimum passes, or accurately distribute seed or fertiliser by placing, “industry-leading implement control at the operator’s fingertips,” says Spaumer. Moreover, AutoTrac™ assisted steering system paired with AIG allows operators to be more productive by allowing them to focus on tasks other than steering. With the new upgraded John Deere AIG, “producers no longer have to worry about the final crop quality as both the machine and implement are operating on the A-B line,” says Wayne Spaumer, Product Specialist for Precision Agriculture, Sub-Sahara Africa at John Deere. Each pass during the production cycle puts the crop at risk. Maintaining the best crop quality is often compromised by cropping practices that require multiple passes through fields. The new John Deere application controller, available as a ‘bolt-on’ or ‘after-market’ kit and compatible with a host of existing machinery, enables enhanced Active Implement Guidance (AIG), Distance Trip and iGrade.
