In addition to sensors for pressure, temperature, flow, and position, oil condition sensors are also increasingly being used. Since seeding is a time-sensitive process in which downtime must be avoided, smooth and precise operation of the seed drill is of the utmost importance. By integrating data collection, transfer, interpretation, and forecasting regarding the oil condition and wear of components, we help prevent unexpected malfunctions. This ensures that the machine operates reliably at all times and that sowing can be carried out efficiently and on schedule.
