Trouble-free precision farming

Operators of modern farm machines remind of pilots. Entering a tractor cab, you feel as if you were entering a cockpit, which is not surprising because large farm machines are equipped with not only a powerful engine and heavy-duty implements but also a sophisticated control system, multi-functional displays, various buttons and levers, each of which has its own role.

Trimble TMX-2050 is one of the most powerful tools in the cab. It is a cutting-edge device with a multisensory screen controlled by Android. Due to the user-friendly interface, it is equally easy to use for both experienced and new. The TMX-2050 display provides an opportunity to take operational decisions without leaving the tractor cab.

‘Trimble has developed a unique display for precision farming’, says Igor Bulgakov, Manager of Precision Farming Department of AgroCentrliski, 'The auto-turn option, variable rate application, section control, active and passive tracking, camera on function and precision level of 2.5 cm are just a few of its functions’.

The TMX-2050 display is designed to work with custom-tailored applications. Android ensures uninterrupted operation of the applications like in any mobile device. The operator obtains access to a large variety of applications developed by specialised companies. However, the key advantage of the device is the opportunity to control implements via ISOBUS protocol or CAN bus, or by establishing a direct connection with the implement and collecting the information on its operation. The data is then transferred to the farm manager’s computer via Trimble software.

Immediate access to Connected Farm package allows the TMX-2050 to display all necessary information and the current field operations. Wireless data exchange between the machines working in the fields and the office enables the operators to receive up-to-date accurate information on farm work, including application maps, driving route and implement data.

Besides, Trimble software processes the data developing variable rate fertiliser application maps on the basis of yield monitoring and soil analysis.

‘The wide variety of high-quality correction services allows the operator to work in any environment with any field of any shape and soil composition’, continues Igor Bulgakov. ‘Trimble CenterPoint RTX and RangePoint RTX correction services enhance the efficiency of displays and heading references, which will increase field work precision and, correspondingly, the farmer’s profit. The TMX-2050 display from Trimble is absolutely indispensable for farm work!’
