Machine control technology
for mobile agricultural and forestry machinery
Soil-conserving, resource-saving, efficient: VÖLKEL integrates fragmented individual functions into an intelligent machine control system.
- The steering control works together with the traction control and adjusts the steering angle to the speed.
- With variable track width, the system reacts automatically to changes in geometry.
- Power control optimizes energy consumption and prioritization depending on the work situation
The result: increased efficiency with the shortest time-to-market – thanks to our modular control platform.
