RateController
Easily adjust applied rates on the go
Gain Rate Control of Seeding and Liquid Products
Seeding Control
Precision Planting's RateController allows you to control either a Precision Planting or John Deere hydraulic motor powered seeding systems on planters. You set the rate on the monitor and then let RateController handle it from there.
Multiple motors on the same implement? No problem. The 20|20 system allows you to add as many RateControllers as needed to control each of your motors.
Have a ground drive system? Convert your planter with our easy to install hydraulic motor and pair it with RateController.
Fertilizer Control
Gain the flexibility to control liquid fertilizer in the way that best suits your operation. RateController supports a wide range of control types including hydraulic and electric PWM motors and flow-regulating valves. Let RateController automatically adjust application rates as your speed changes using a speed sensor or flow meter feedback, with simple in-cab adjustments when needed.
Powered by the 20|20 monitor, this rate control system can integrate with additional sensors and controllers for more precise application control. Pair it with individual row sensors to monitor flow on every row, or use EMHD or vApplyHD to enable section or row-by-row control, improving the consistency and accuracy of your liquid fertilizer application.
Variable Rate and Prescriptions
Changing seed and fertilizer rates based on the yield potential of various field zones just makes sense. RateController is a versatile tool that can be used to execute implement-wide variable rate prescriptions for seeding, liquid or granular products. Whether the prescription was made in Panorama or another application, RateController can execute it.
Pair with SwathModule for Added Control
Gain planting data and swath control when you pair RateController with SwathModule and a Gen 3 20|20. Plant singulated crops and apply granular fertilizer with accuracy through detailed metrics in the 20|20.
Fertility System
Add vApplyHD for Row-by-Row Control
The vApplyHD system uses a RateController plus control modules on the toolbar. The modules on control flow, measure flow, and swath all in a single device. These same modules can be configured in either section control or row-by-row control.
Complete Your Liquid Fertility System
PumpStack makes it easy to pair up your application technology with your fertility rates and is designed to work with Precision Planting’s Fertility System or other rate controllers so that you can easily design a liquid fertility system.
