Product Description

Why Precise Boom Levelling Matters

In the UK and Ireland, uneven terrain and wind are the biggest enemies of a successful spray program. A boom that fluctuates in height leads to poor spray patterns and increased drift. Lykketronic’s automated system uses high-precision ultrasonic sensors to “read” the ground or crop, making real-time adjustments so you don’t have to.

Key Benefits:

  • Uniform Spray Patterns: Ensures an average nozzle-to-target height across the full width of the boom, maximising chemical efficacy.

  • Drift Mitigation: Keeping the boom at the correct, lower height is the most effective way to manage drift in challenging weather.

  • Protect Your Asset: Prevent costly ground strikes and structural stress on your boom, especially when working at higher speeds.

  • Reduce Operator Fatigue: Eliminate the stress of constant manual height adjustments during long days in the cab.

Technical Features Built for Performance

1. Fixed & Variable Geometry Support

Whether you are running a standard boom or a high-spec folding system, we have the solution:

  • Fixed Boom Leveling: Uses height and tilt outputs to keep the boom equidistant from the target.

  • Variable Geometry (VG): Adds independent incline control for each wing—essential for maintaining precision on steep banks and rolling hills.

2. Intelligent Spray Modes

  • Crop-Specific Settings: Configuration settings can be saved based on crop type, allowing the operator to switch modes instantly as they move from cereals to oilseed rape or roots.

  • Smart Scan Technology: Configurable scan times prevent the boom from “dropping” in sparse or patchy cropping areas.

  • Headland Mode: Automatically lifts the boom or wing tips when the master spray valve is switched off, making headland turns safer and faster.

3. Modular “Future-Proof” Design

Lykketronic systems are built on a modular architecture. You can start with a fixed geometry setup and upgrade to variable geometry later by simply adding components—no need for a total system overhaul.

Seamless Integration

The system is designed to integrate easily with your existing machinery and hydraulic valves (both proportional and digital).

  • Control Options: View real-time sensor readouts and boom positioning on the Lykketronic Flex monitor, PC, or your existing ISOBUS Virtual Terminal (VT).

  • In-Depth Diagnostics: Advanced technician menus provide detailed info on ECU status, sensor readings, and software versions for easy troubleshooting.
