Cataya harrow-mounted seed drill

AMAZONE offers the TwinTerminal 3.0 for electric metering drive, in combination with ISOBUS, in order to simplify further the calibration and residue emptying. The TwinTerminal is mounted directly in the SmartCenter instead of the calibration button. This position offers a decisive benefit: the driver can now perform the operation and input the data for the calibration directly on the machine, and no longer has to keep getting on and off the tractor.

The TwinTerminal 3.0 consists of a water and dust proof housing with a 3.2" display and four large keys for actuation.

AmaLog⁺ is a simple but very reliable in-cab terminal to supplement the Cataya Special with mechanical land wheel drive. Operation is possible using non-ISOBUS ready tractors.

AmaLog⁺ functions:

• Tramline control
• Pre-emergence markers
• Fill level monitoring
• Hectare meter
• Speed display

Simple and comfortable: AmaDrill 2 has been developed especially for AMAZONE seed drills and is a cost-effective yet comfortable terminal.

One language, many benefits!

Each ISOBUS-enabled machine from AMAZONE comes with the latest technology and almost unlimited possibilities. It makes no difference whether you use an operator terminal from AMAZONE or an ISOBUS terminal fitted directly in the tractor. ISOBUS is an internationally recognised standard for communication between the operator terminal, tractors and connected implements on the one hand and Farm Management Information Systems on the other.

Operation with a wide variety of ISOBUS terminals

Which means that ISOBUS enables you to take control of all your ISOBUS compatible equipment. You only have to connect the machine to the respective ISOBUS terminal and the usual operator interface appears on the monitor in your tractor cab.

Benefits of ISOBUS at a glance: 

• This worldwide standard provides a uniform interface and data exchange format that ensures compatibility even with third party manufacturers 
• Plug and Play between machine, tractor and additional ISOBUS implements

This means that you can control all your ISOBUS-compatible equipment using a single terminal. You only have to connect the machinery to the respective ISOBUS terminal and the usual operator interface appears on the monitor in your tractor cab.

Benefits of ISOBUS:

• International standardisation provides uniform interfaces and data formats, meaning that compatibility with other manufacturers is ensured
• Plug and Play between the machine, tractor and other ISOBUS equipment

Our competence in electronics: To increase the operational comfort, AMAZONE implements and operator terminals feature a level of functionality far beyond ISOBUS standards.

The benefits of more than just ISOBUS:

If the operating terminal features Section Control, such as, for example, GPS-Switch part-width section control from AMAZONE, the switching of the part-width sections can be carried out completely automatically and in relation to the GPS position. Once a field has been created, the driver can concentrate fully on operating the vehicle in automatic mode, since the part-width sections are switched automatically in wedge shaped fields and on headlands.

Benefits of automatic part-width section control: 

• Relieves stress on the driver 
• Increase in precision, especially at night or at higher speeds 
• Less overlaps and gaps 
• Saving of inputs 
• Less crop damage and environmental impact

With GPS-Switch, AMAZONE offers a GPS-based, fully automatic, part-width section control for all AMAZONE operator terminals and ISOBUS compatible fertiliser spreaders, crop protection sprayers or seed drills.

1. The implement is manually witched on and off

Precise sowing is very important, in order to avoid overand under-sowing in critical areas. A remedy for accurate placement is offered by the half-side control, which reduces the relevant working width to half so that a significant saving is achieved, especially in wedge shaped fields and on the headland. The two halves of the drill each correspond to one controllable part-width section

1. Virtual headland
2. Field application maps for different seed rates are also possible
3. Worked area
4. With half-side shut-off
5. The seed drill automatically switches off precisely

With AmaTron Connect, AMAZONE provides a digital interface to a smartphone or tablet. The mobile device is simply connected to the AmaTron 4 as a hotspot. AmaTron Connect enables use of the AmaTron Twin App as well as data exchange via agrirouter and the myAmaRouter App.
