摘要: A system and computer-implemented method for sensing an amount of free water in cut crop material and automatically adjusting an operating parameter of a mower conditioner to optimize the amount of free water. A sensor located at the exit of a conditioning mechanism measures an actual free water content value of the material as it exits the conditioning mechanism, a processor compares the actual value to maximum and minimum values, and if the actual value is outside this range, automatically adjusts an operating parameter, such as a gap between pairs of conditioning rollers, a pressure exerted by the rollers, or a speed of the mower conditioner, to optimize the actual value. Another sensor may be located at the entrance of the conditioning mechanism. The processor may take into account an operator-selectable value weighting the actual free water content versus a dry down time when adjusting the operating parameter.

摘要: Methods and systems for sensing a throughput of cut organic material conveyed through agricultural equipment such as an agricultural baler or the like. The system may include, and the method may be performed at least in part using, agricultural equipment including a feed mechanism that conveys the cut organic material through the agricultural equipment. The feed mechanism includes a rotor, a floor near the rotor, and a sensor that measures data proportional to a force exerted on the floor. The system includes a processor that correlates data proportional to the force exerted on the floor to a rate at which the cut organic material is conveyed through the feed mechanism.

摘要: A system (42) and computer-implemented method for sensing an amount of ash in cut crop material and automatically adjusting an operating parameter of a mower conditioner to optimize the amount of ash. A sensor (50) measures an measured ash content value of the crop material after it is cut, a processor (48) compares the actual value to a threshold value, and if the actual value exceeds the threshold value, automatically adjusts an operating parameter, such as a height, angle, or speed at which the crop material is cut, a float pressure of the header (12), or a ground speed of the machine (10). Other sensors (64) may measure a roughness of the cut, an excessive stubble height, or other data relevant to optimizing quality, which may also result in adjustments to the operating parameters. The processor (48) may consider an operator-selectable value weighting the measured ash content versus a speed of operation when adjusting the operating parameter.

摘要: A system and computer-implemented method for assessing an amount of ash includes an agricultural implement and an ash assessment system. The implement includes a crop processing portion configured to move a cut organic material in a field. The ash assessment system includes an ash sensor configured to determine a measured ash contamination value, a GNSS receiver configured to determine a geolocation, and a processor programmed to perform an ash assessment process. The process includes receiving the measured ash contamination value from the ash sensor and receiving the geolocation data from the GNSS receiver. The geolocation data corresponds to a geolocation of the measured ash contamination value. The process also includes correlating the measured ash contamination value and the geolocation data to one another and storing the measured ash contamination value and the geolocation data in a memory device that is coupled in communication with said processor.
