Rotational speed sensors allow highly sensitive mobile machine control

August 13, 2020 By Mary Gannon

Sugar beet harvesters from Homer Maschinenbau require precise data collection, provided by Rheintacho speed sensors.

Holmer Maschinenbau GmbH, a German-based agricultural company, developed the first self-propelled six-row sugar-beet harvester in 1974. Since that time, the Holmer machines have been in successful operation by customers in over 40 countries world-wide. On its sugar beet harvesters, it requires a precise collection of actual values directly at the place of consumption (propulsion, toppers, […]
