Autonomous 8R 410 and 2660VT in the field
Technology should be simple to maximize full potential, autonomy shouldn’t be different. With autonomous farming solutions on the horizon, many customers are wondering what they should do to ensure the tillage equipment they are purchasing today will be READY to operate autonomously.
Autonomy Ready includes known and available integrated components, allowing customers to save time and money when adding the fully autonomous tillage solution hardware. The components included from the factory are:

HSD Series machine
The HSD Series gives operators the ability to cover acres quickly, increasing their productivity. This two-season tool can operate up to 22.5 km/h (14 mph) in field.
This tool is available in seven configurations from 7.70 m to 13.79 m (25 ft to 45 ft). The HSD Series requires 34.25 kW/m (15 hp/ft), but in certain hilly, soft, or wet conditions it may require an additional 25 percent engine horsepower to maintain operating speeds at preferred working depth.

Individually mounted blades
Rubber torsion elements
HSD Series features individually mounted blades. These blades, supported by rubber torsion elements, can travel up to 22.9 cm (9 in.) while passing over an obstruction, like a rock. This allows the rest of the tool to remain engaged and continue working, allowing for better ground contour.
Keep the tool engaged while passing over obstructions
To also follow ground contour, wings flex to stay engaged on hilly or terraced ground.
Wings follow the ground contour
Blades are also easy to replace. Rather than having to remove an entire gang, just replace an individual blade.
