摘要:
A system and method for controlling bale forming operations is disclosed. The system and method includes a monitoring system for visually imaging a portion of a bale and providing a warning to an operator if the bale is wrapped or shaped incorrectly.
摘要:
Monitoring current draw of an actuator (52) associated with a rotating arm (51,53) on a round baler (10) during a net wrapping cycle is used to determine the position of the rotating arm (51,53) and actuator (52), as well as to determine the net tension. The current draw of the actuator (52) may be correlated with the home and insert positions of the rotating arm (51,53) during the net wrapping cycle; thus by monitoring the current draw, the rotating arm (51,53) and actuator (52) position is determined and may be provided to aid an operator. The net tension during the net wrapping cycle is a function of the rotating arm (51,53) and actuator (52) current. A calculation of net tension is determined and provided to an operator, allowing the operator to verify performance issues related to the net tension.
