Kverneland have released the Kverneland Curve Pilot, revolutionary control unit which is moving precision mowing to the next level. The Curve Pilot works in tandem with the new 55100MT Vario Triple Mower to automatically manage the side-shift on both rear mowing units.
Each rear mower can be shifted sideways by up to 400mm in response to your steering inputs within the tractor, all without requiring GPS input or auto-steering integration!
Curve Pilot accomplishes this through a simple gyroscope which senses turning movements which control the rear mowing units.
This prevents stripping which can occur between the front and rear mower units when following headland curves or mowing around obstacles.
Allowing farmers to take full advantage of the working width without having to accept an overlap on headlands for example.
Created as a replacement for the 53100MT Vario, the 55100 has retained many of the proven features which made it popular, including QuattroLink bed suspension for contour following. The butterfly outfit utilises two nine-disc cutting beds which achieve conditioning through a semi-swing steel tine conditioner.
Conditioning hoods offer dual adjustment at both the front and rear of each hood, to adjust the intensity of conditioning to suit crop volume. In addition, the rear part of the hood allows rapid change-over from swathing to spreading.
The 55100MT Vario can also be retro-fitted with BX swath groupers which, thanks to quick release couplings, can be fitted and removed in a matter of minutes.
