Cab & Electronics
|
|
EvoCab optimizes visibility
• "3 pillar design"
• The new large spacious EvoCab provides a new standard with more than 320° view around the sprayer.
• An extreme low sound level in the EvoCab and the automatic climate control give the sprayer operator an optimization of his machine’s overall performance.
• An air cooled lunch box and an extra seat to the left of the operator support the idea of the optimized space this machine provides.
New HARDI SprayCenter
• The driver can operate all spray and hydraulic functions directly from the cab with the right hand located SprayCenter.
• All functions are fully controlled from the cab and underline the level of optimization the operator can gain from this machine.

|
AutoSectionControl & AutoSteering
• AutoSectionControl (ASC) is a GPS based system that opens and closes boom sections as necessary
• Product savings up to 5 % or more are documented
• Operator fatigue is greatly reduced with both ASC and AutoSteering, especially in odd shaped fields
• Precision shut-off can be individually set up
• AutoSteering can be programed to follow any shaped field
|
Ergonomic Joystick
• Placed close to the operator
• Operation is done without having to take ones eyes from the line of travel
• Internal lighting so the switches and buttons can easily be seen in low light
• Controls forward and reverse movement
Turns main spraying and sections
• Controls Primary boom hydraulics:
• boom height
• center section slant
• individual tilt of the boom wings.
|
|
HC 9600
• Full control - integrated electronics
• Colour screen with excellent readability in sunlight and darkness.
• All the main spraying functions are operated with the finger-tip multifunction joystick in conjunction with HC 9500 12.1” touchscreen spray controller.
• ISOBUS compatibility- HC 9600 offers compatibility with the ISO 11783 (ISOBUS) Virtual Terminal Standard, so the HC 9600 could also operate as the HC 6500.
• The complete integration of all important information on one work screen, including AutoSteer, AutoHeight, AutoSectionControl, as well as guidance and dosing.
• Easy to read graphical interface whcih easily shows you your boundaries and your already sprayed areas.

Liquid system
|
|
What is DynamicFluid4:
• DynamicFluid4 is developed in terms of a faster regulation with highest possible accuracy.
• The new liquid system works with a fast "feed forward" regulation valve to deal with all the challenges forced by tractor transmissions with stepless speed changes and the automatic ON/OFF functionality of modern sprayers.
• The regulation valve is programmed to scope with different driving behaviours.
• The regulation concept is designed with 4 different sensors. Together with the high precision, the 4 sensors are working as backup for each other. This results in high level of security and built-in reliability.
|
|
DynamicFluid4 Characterisitics & Benefits:
• AutoSectionControl - inputs from sensors - e.g. shutting off sections
• Wide regulation range from 0 - 500 l/min (0-132 gpm)
• Precise - Measuring and calculating 20 times/sec
• Flexible - The regulation follows changes in speed when - e.g. passing obstacles in the field
• Fast response - Direct with no delay in the start up and with the demanded dossage
• Thinking forward - At headlands the system is calculating and predicting the right dossage for entering the field again
• Up to 7 times faster than demands from the ISO/EN standards
• High reliability with ceramic valves, no leaks and long lifetime
• ISO standards call for +/- 10% from regulation set point after 7 seconds...
