Photos: Hardi<\/p>\n<p class=\"intro Intro wp-block-paragraph\">Danish sprayer manufacturer Hardi is introducing a new and more advanced spray boom management system, called Auto Terrain Pro, for Twin Force and Delta Force booms. The main development: improved sensors and an additional sensor on the frame that is designed to predict the movement of the spray boom.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the Auto Terrain Pro automatic boom stabilisation system, an additional sensor is mounted on the sprayer\u2019s rear axle. This sensor detects when the sprayer passes through a hollow or over a bump in the field. Based on the deflection of that sensor, the boom is corrected immediately. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homburg-holland.com\/nl\/hardi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">importer Homburg Holland<\/a> in Stiens, Friesland, this system provides a more consistent spray pattern. The spray boom does not have to be corrected after every movement, but is primarily kept level.<\/p>\n<p>New suspension<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, Hardi has modified the suspension of the spray boom. The new suspension has been fitted with an additional cylinder. This Smart cylinder works as a kind of damper that absorbs the corrections of the spray boom. This makes the movements less jerky.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/1791889697_884_.jpeg\" alt=\"An additional cylinder has been fitted in the sprayer\u2019s new suspension.

According to Hardi, this results in a more stable, less jerky spray boom.Additional sensors<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As standard, the spray boom is equipped with 3 ultrasonic sensors to measure the height to the crop. As an option, a fourth or fifth sensor can be added. Homburg does not expect much demand in the Netherlands for those additional sensors, as they are mainly intended for fields on hilly terrain. The importer also reports that all sensors are maintenance-free.<\/p>\n<p>Available up to 39 m<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Auto Terrain Pro is available <a href=\"https:\/\/hardi.com\/en\/solutions\/booms\/delta-force\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">on spray booms<\/a> with a length of 24 to 39m. The option has a starting price of \u20ac8.000.<\/p>\n<p>Join 17,000+ subscribers<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Subscribe to our newsletter to stay updated about all the need-to-know content in the agricultural sector, two times a week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gform_required_legend\">&#8220;*&#8221; indicates required fields<\/p>\n<p> <img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Lucas-van-de-Weijer-225x300-1.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-image-1-1 size-image-1-1\" alt=\"van de Weijer\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Crop sprayer specialist Hardi is introducing a new spray boom management system that, with the help of additional&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":931387,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[49,48,319824,36563,215852,24460,319825,61],"class_list":["post-931386","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-crop-spraying","tag-machinery","tag-precision-agriculture","tag-sensors","tag-spraying-technology","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/931386","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=931386"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/931386\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/931387"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=931386"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=931386"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=931386"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
