Lindsay Corporation has introduced a new, advanced GPS Guidance option for the Zimmatic 9500L—a cost-effective solution that gives growers precise, maintenance-free lateral tracking.
“This exciting new product gives growers the ability to navigate their Zimmatic lateral systems with sub-inch accuracy and make real-time adjustments to the run path and end points,” says Christopher Higgins, Zimmatic product manager at Lindsay Corporation. “No other GPS lateral solution in the marketplace has the features and ease-of-use benefits that come with the Zimmatic 9500L GPS Guidance option.”
Available for Zimmatic 9500L systems, the GPS Guidance option is ideal for installations where furrow or wire guidance are not suited or are difficult to maintain. Easy path management allows users to set virtual hose stops and/or service stops quickly and easily. Real-time RTK correction ensures the machine will always be where it should be. Additional benefits include:
- Dual Channel RTK delivers the fastest startup times and most precise position accuracy.
- Costly repair or replacement of above-ground guidance wires damaged by equipment or wildlife is eliminated.
- A single GPS base station can be shared by multiple 9500L systems within operational distance limits.
- A simple retrofit, it can easily be installed onto any existing Zimmatic 9500L system.
“This affordable advanced guidance option gives growers the ability move up and down the system run length with extreme precision and track repeatability,” says Higgins.
