Star feeder – conveyor combination for output rate determination – for combines –
Since precision farming is a today's requirement for economical agriculture it is required to map the harvested crops per field independent on moisture level within the crops.
We present a solution that is able to determine output rate with respect to mass and volume, while the machine is harvesting across the field in real time. The whole unit is integrated (plug-in) within the crops flow inside the harvester. The apparatus guaranties a continuous recording of density, mass and volume and is suitable for a wide range of harvested crops. It will precisely work even if the machine moves over the rough field. To be sure what you have got on the end of the day it calibrates itself and comes with an automatic error control.
