Row-Guard 380 is a compact and lighter linear camera steering system for professional mechanical weed control in vegetable farming operations.
Austrian inter-row cultivation specialist Einbock has introduced Row-Guard 380, a compact and lighter linear camera steering system for professional mechanical weed control in vegetable farming operations.
A sophisticated new design ensures maximum precision, easy handling, and perfect adaptation to rigid row-crop cultivators, offering a practical, efficient, and future-oriented solution for professional vegetable growers.
The machines design incorporates an “integrated viewing window” with the cantered camera always having the best view of the crop rows. This ensures exact row guidance and facilitates accurate hoeing, particularly in narrow rows or demanding conditions.
Designed with overall weight in mind, the new Row-Guard 380 offers significant weight reduction and a shorter overall length, compared to previous solutions. This ensures greater manoeuvrability, lower lifting power requirements, and lower ground pressure, all advantages that play a decisive role in vegetable farming.
Offering a total side-shift of 380mm / 15” is said to guarantee maximum precision, while the new side-shift frame is optionally available with a 3-point hookup or implement triangle. This allows adaption to existing machines or quick changes between several row-crop cultivators.
