Kverneland Lynx
The guidance interface, Kverneland LYNX offers flexibility, easy control and utmost accuracy to the inter-row cultivator Kverneland ONYX for mechanical weeding.
Highlights
Easy control Utmost accuracy Flexibility Extended range Reliability Operator-friendlyDescription
Optimal mechanical weeding in row crops and cereals will get as close to the plants as possible. The risk of damaging the crops is imminent. Straight and accurate rows are needed with the row widths differing from crop to crop. Moreover, changing soil conditions and fields which are located on hills and slopes can be especially challenging and request stable track control of the mechanical weeder.
The guidance interface, Kverneland Lynx offers flexibility, easy control and utmost accuracy to the inter-row cultivator Kverneland Onyx. Due to the lateral movement of up to 25cm either side, precise mechanical weeding is ensured, self- steered by camera and feeler at an increased working speed even on slopes. The reliable and precise system allows the driver to concentrate on the quality of the mechanical weeding and will relieve the strain.
The camera and feeler
Lynx is equipped with an HR, colorimetric analysis camera, Tillett & Hague technology. A 2nd camera can be added and is most useful in case of uneven seed emergence, predation or in triangle headlands. There is an optional crop feeler for working in developed crops. LED lights allow good working results also in the dark.
Anchoring wheel
Equipped with the largest diameter of anchoring wheel on the market, Lynx will keep the inter-row cultivator on track also in challenging hilly conditions without any bulldozing effect.
Choice of models
There is the choice of 2 models, Lynx 2000 and Lynx 3000. The compact linkage for a close distance to the tractor in combination with Onyx 3000 and Onyx 4000 reduces the lifting requirement of the tractor. There is also the option to have a fully integrated version with the guidance interface Lynx 3000 and the inter-row cultivator Onyx 4000 F to suit various sizes of tractors and implements.
Features
Kverneland guidance interface available in two models: Lynx 2000 and Lynx 3000 suitable for various tractors and implements.
There is also the option of a fully integrated version with the guidance interface Lynx 3000 and the inter-row cultivator Onyx 4000 F. The choice of the right model depends on the weight of the tractor and the inter-row cultivator, the required lifting capacity and also the geographic conditions in the field.
The LYNX guidance interface features a top-of-the-technology colour scanner camera allowing mechanical weeding also in higher vegetation. Here special row sensors/feelers support the steering of the Lynx.
One camera is standard and a second optional. The camera features Tillet & Hague technology, has a 6mm waterproof lens, HD-vision and enables 30 frames per second. It managed high-crop operation, recognises shadow effects and strong light intensity. This prevents damage to crops during weeding. A second camera compensates for signal losses at headlands, gelled plots and places where the crop has not emerged. This achieves an even more accurate hoeing image.
When weeding in developped crop and the leaves cover the entire surface, the feeler sensor kit follows the row crop and takes control.
The LED working lights allow working at night and may also compensate the shadow effects.
The large-dimensioned anchoring wheels of the Lynx add extra stability to the inter-row cultivator thus increasing precision and in-row accuracy. This is especially important when working in hilly conditions or with wider working widths.
