It’s the details that matter

It’s not just the brand or the price that matters when you choose your new autosteer system. The technology is still evolving at a rapid pace and thanks to for instance Canbus and Isobus, the existing steering valve and steering angle sensor can now be used. This lowers the investment costs.

If you’re planting trees for example, you want your autosteer system to be able to operate at the lowest possible speed while when spraying, you want it to work at speeds well above 25 km/h (16 mph). Speaking of sprayers and large seeds drills and planters: how about up to 255 individual sections to operate?

There are so many details that can make an autosteer system (un)suitable for your farming practice! Therefore you’ll find the answers to all your questions in the upcoming update of our buyers’ guide with autosteer retrofit kits.
