Agricultural engineering

Agricultural engineering is an industry in which technology is rapidly developing. Agricultural machines are now high-tech systems in which productivity, reliability and maintenance of product quality are very important elements. The user has control over the whole process, from the beginning to the end. These insights are obtained by sensors in the machine, which report continuous status, quantity, position or distance to the control. The reliability and accuracy of the sensors is therefore very important to get the maximum yield from the machines. That is why many machine builders of agricultural machines choose Sensor Partners.

Automatic feeding system chicken run capcitive and ultrasonic sensors

Level measurement of animal feeding system

With ultrasonic sensors or capacitive sensors it is possible to perform a level measurement of an animal feeding system to monitor the food in a chicken run and then giving a sign when it needs to filled.

Height measurement of the spray boom on a crop sprinkler.

Ultrasonic sensors reliably measure the height of a spray boom on a crop sprinkler relative to the crops. A background filter helps to ignore objects on lower ground.

Detection of crops in the ground

Light curtains are suited to perform a detection of crops in moist and dirty environments such as on machines in the agriculture to be sure that a crop is placed in every hole.

Harvesters

With emitter/receiver photoelectric sensors it is possible to detect harvest or measure when a certain level is reached in harvesters in the dirty environments in the agriculture.
