IMPLEMENT WEIGHT TRANSFER MONITORING AND WING CONTROL
A work machine with a first tire having a first tire pressure sensor configured to identify a first tire pressure, a load sensor coupled to the work machine and configured to measure an actual load weight, and a controller in communication with the first tire pressure sensor and the load sensor. Wherein, the controller identifies a tire pressure value with the first tire pressure sensor and the controller determines a current load weight threshold from a plurality of load weight thresholds with the tire pressure value.
Agricultural toolbar apparatus, systems, and methods
Systems, methods, and apparatus for shifting weight between a tractor and toolbar and between sections of the toolbar and for folding a toolbar between a field position and a transport position.
Method for determining an axle load of a tractor
A method for determining an axle load on a vehicle axle of a tractor includes providing a power lift and a payload coupled thereto, driving the power lift by a hydraulic pump, setting a pump pressure of the hydraulic pump as a function of the coupled payload, detecting the pump pressure by a sensor, and determining the axle load as a function of the detected pump pressure from characteristic data which represents a relationship between the pump pressure and the weight of the payload.
Method and Device for Increasing the Load on Driving Rear Wheels of Tractors during Soil Cultivation
The invention relates to a method for increasing the load on driving rear wheels (KB, KP) of a tractor during soil cultivation with a farm implement (2), in particular with a plough (20), attached to a three-point linkage (1) of the tractor, in which the vertical position of the attached implement (2, 20) is adjusted relative to the tractor by means of the position of the arms (4) of a lifting device and the length of the upper link (13) of the three-point linkage (1) of the tractor is adjusted. After adjusting the length of the upper link (13) of the three-point linkage of the tractor the axial force acting/induced in the upper link (13) is determined and during travel of the tractor continuously monitored and automatically maintained at the adjusted value, whereby also the adjusted vertical position of the implement (2) attached to the tractor is continuously monitored (2) and is also automatically maintained at the adjusted value, thereby maintaining the vertical position of the attached implement (3) in this regulation and thus also constant ploughing depth.
In addition, the invention relates to a device for performing the above-mentioned method for increasing the load on driving rear wheels of tractors during soil cultivation.
AGRICULTURAL TOOLBAR APPARATUS, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS
Systems, methods and apparatus for shifting weight between a tractor and toolbar and between sections of the toolbar and for folding a toolbar between a field position and a transport position.

METHOD OF PROVIDING A BALLASTING PROPOSAL
A method for making available a ballasting proposal for an agricultural tractor includes providing an implement for the tractor, calculating a target tractive power for the implement for each axle of the agricultural tractor, and deriving a target value for an axle load to be maintained on each axle based upon a function of the calculated target tractive power. The method further includes determining an actual axle load on each axle, comparing the target value to the actual axle load, calculating an axle ballasting value based on a result of the comparing step required to maintain the target valve, and outputting the ballasting value.
System and method of reacting to wheel slip in a traction vehicle
A vehicle traction control system for a vehicle includes a prime mover, at least one wheel for providing tractive effort on a support surface, and a ground-engaging implement moveable relative to the support surface. The traction control system also includes a controller operable to monitor wheel slip of the at least one wheel. The controller is operable to move the ground-engaging implement at a rate proportional to an amount of wheel slip.
