Time management has a direct impact on the efficiency and profitability of farming. Tractor steering errors, repeated passes, gaps and overlaps slow down tasks, increase fuel costs and increase deterioration of equipment. A precision steering system like FieldBee PowerGuide helps to optimize tractor movement, reduce unnecessary runs and speed up farming.
How to avoid losing time when processing fields with precision steering?
Precision steering helps to speed up work by providing optimal routes, stable trajectory of movement and reducing of unnecessary maneuvers. Ways to save time with precision steering:
- elimination of overlaps and gaps. Precision steering allows you to move strictly along a given trajectory, eliminating repeated passes over the same areas or, conversely, leaving unprocessed areas. This is especially important during seeding, fertilizing and spraying, where every missed or over-processed area results in a loss of resources and a decrease in yield;
- optimization of movement routes. GPS navigation helps to build the most efficient routes, eliminating unnecessary turns, chaotic movement across the field and time spent on course adjustments. Thanks to this, the overall operating time is reduced, and the equipment moves across the field as efficiently as possible;
- automatic control on complex terrain. Working on hills, slopes and uneven areas usually takes more time, since the operator has to manually adjust the trajectory, avoid tractor drift and slippage. Precise steering helps to maintain a stable trajectory even in difficult conditions, reducing the need for constant adjustments. This allows to speed up processing of complex areas and reduce the load on the operator;
- reduction in equipment downtime. Due to control errors, tractors are often forced to stop for repeated adjustments, course corrections or to eliminate the consequences of inaccurate movement. These delays increase operating time and fuel consumption, reducing the efficiency of operations. Precision steering minimizes such stops, allowing you to continue working without unnecessary delays;
- automatic speed adjustment. Uncontrolled changes in speed during work can slow down the process and increase fuel consumption. For example, too low speed leads to unnecessary waste of time, and sharp accelerations lead to excessive fuel consumption and overloading of equipment. Precision steering helps to maintain a stable work rhythm, which allows you to complete operations faster and reduce fuel costs.
It is also important to understand that when working on a tractor for a long time, driver fatigue can slow down the completion of tasks due to the need for taking breaks. Automated control reduces the load on the operator, allowing him to work more productively and faster.
