Tractors can also be "driverless"!
Recently, the 110 horsepower "driverless" large wheel tractor independently developed by Luoyang Lutong Group has been successfully tested.
At the finished product workshop of Luoyang Lutong Group, located in the Luoyang Airport Industry Zone, a reporter saw an 110-horsepower 'driverless' large wheel tractor.
This tractor stands 2.6 meters tall, with a mushroom-shaped satellite signal receiver on top. The cab is equipped with a liquid crystal touch screen, which displays the tractor's operational path.
How does this 'driverless' large tractor operate?
According to Li Yingfeng, the company's vice president of technology, it relies on an autonomous driving
navigation system.
"This tractor is equipped with a portable mobile base station. Once the base station is activated, it will accurately position the tractor's working area.
Then simply start the tractor, turn on the central processor in the cab, and set the work route on the LCD touch screen, and the tractor can begin its operation.
" Li Yingfeng explained that if the tractor deviates from the route, the autonomous driving navigation system will use angle sensors on the steering wheels to send feedback to the central
processor. The computer program will adjust the fuel supply to the steering cylinders to correct the deviation, ensuring the tractor stays on the designated route.
Through the automatic navigation system, the tractor can carry out land turning, harrowing, sowing, spraying and harvesting according to the trajectory of straight line, curve and ring line. Its precise operation can save fuel.
