Row guidance system

Precise row guidance

Damage-free hoeing of row crops requires maximum precision. The Venterra's row guidance system, consisting of control unit and shift frame, allows the operator to react immediately to slight changes in the crop rows by controlling the parallelograms with centimetre precision. Hoeing is only carried out between the crop rows where the weeds are present – the crop remains undamaged. 

The Venterra 1K and 2K can be combined with the compact VR 2 linear shift frame or the extremely flexible AV 5 parallel shift frame. The standard 3-point coupling on the shift frames means that they can be used for different Venterra hoe frames. Various control units are available for controlling the shift frame.

A row guidance system is particularly suitable for cultivating large fields or fields on hilly terrain. Here, the system supports the driver by controlling the parallelograms in the row, and driving errors or the gradient can be easily compensated for. This increases driver comfort, protects the crops and also usually results in higher forward speeds and so more area covered.
