Raven Industries Release Two New Precision Agriculture Products: RS1 and CR7

Contributed by | Raven Industries

The RS1™ combines autosteer, GPS, and Slingshot® into one intuitive, easy-to-use unit for navigation.

The RS1™’s incredible accuracy at both high and low speeds, along with quick line acquire, improves efficiency and gives our customers the power to cover more hectares in a day. Best-in-class diagnostics gather machine performance data while in use, alerting Raven of issues and connecting customers to support as they need it. The unit is designed with a simple set-up and integrated help guides and is enhanced further by Slingshot® — providing remote support, file transfer and more.

The CR7™ is a 7-inch powerful, lightweight field computer with customizable in-job layouts. A simple widget concept, easily accessible settings, and ISO VT and Task Controller capabilities make this powerful unit a plug-and-play and affordable system. The CR7™ is compatible with Slingshot® file transfer and remote support, auto-steer and guidance, AccuBoom™, Raven serial consoles and more.

Both products further enhance Raven’s lineup of precision agriculture technology.

“At Raven, our mission is to make application control and input management simple,” said Tim Heins, Director of Product Management. “These products show our commitment not just to providing groundbreaking innovations, but also to further improving existing technologies and designing products that can be more easily adapted and utilized by our customers.”

Raven plans to feature these new technologies at tradeshows across the U.S. and Canada this summer. This week, Raven will be exhibiting at MAGIE in Bloomington, Ill. with plans to be at the Farm Progress show in Decatur, Ill. next week.

The ERT150 - Dorner’s Next Evolution of Edge Roller Technology Conveyors

The ERT150 - Dorner's Next Evolution of Edge Roller Technology Conveyors

The next evolution in Dorner's Edge Roller Technology conveyor platform, the ERT®150, is ideal for small and light-load assembly automation, as well as medical and medical-device assembly application. The ERT platform is the only pallet conveyor of its kind available with an ISO Standard Class 4 rating for cleanroom applications. Earning the ISO Standard 14644-1 Class 4 rating means Dorner's ERT150 will conform and not contribute to the contamination of cleanrooms to those standards. As implied by its name, the ERT150 (Edge Roller Technology) uses rollers to move pallets through the conveyor smoothly with no friction (a byproduct often seen in belt-driven platforms). The conveyor's open design eliminates concerns of small parts or screws dropping into rollers and causing conveyor damage or jamming. The ERT150 is suited to operate in cleanroom environments requiring a pallet handling conveyor. It is capable of zoning for no or low-back pressure accumulation and is ideal for automation assembly applications within industries including medical devices, electronics, consumer goods among others.
