Forage Cruiser Solutions: RockAlert

 

• The working principle is that a potentiometer continuously monitors the front feed roll opening. When an instant acceleration of the feed rolls is recorded the software will instantly stop the HydroLoc™ system.
• The sensor components are located outside on the left hand side of the feed roll module.
• When RockAlert™ is de-activated by the operator, the system will still monitor feed roll movement and when an object is detected, a popup in the display will show “Stone missed”.

Key Features

• Protect the Forage Harvester by detecting rock and stones and stopping the HydroLoc system, avoiding heavy rocks and stones entering the machine.
• The sensitivity, which correlates with the size of the objects entering, can be adjusted in the IntelliView IV display.
