Case IH is improving customer productivity by making auto-guidance for cropping systems more integrated, flexible and easy to use. The new Case IH AFS (Advanced Farming System) Pro 600 colour monitor will be used with Case IH AccuGuide systems to provide both curved and straight line guidance on the new Axial-Flow 7010 and 8010 series combines as well as Magnum and Steiger tractors.
The monitor is fully integrated. In addition to auto-guidance, the AFS Pro 600 handles yield monitoring and mapping tasks on all Case IH Axial-Flow combine models, including the Axial-Flow 2577 and 2588 combines. In the spring, growers can put the monitor back to work on Case IH Early Riser 1200 series planters to manage planter functions and prescriptions, such as maps for variable seed planting. This portability allows the operator to use one monitor for all tasks, which saves money. It also saves time because the operator has to learn only one system. Another feature of the AFS Pro 600 is login capability, which allows the operator to log specific data on each field for precision passes every time through.
