Automatic Corn Header Height & Tilt Control
OEM and aftermarket solution for corn headers.
Capture Yield and Decrease Fatigue
Long days in the combine cab are exhausting, especially when navigating challenging terrain and harvesting downed crops. With automatic header height and tilt control, you can maximize your harvest with minimum stress. Let HeadSight do the calculating and adjusting for you.
Upgrade Your Standard OEM Control
Even if your corn head comes with height control, the performance isn't as accurate as HeadSight. You can swap out the OEM system for HeadSight's superior control system.
Consistent Stalk Residue
Accurate height control creates a more consistent ratio of stalk left standing to residue on the ground, which impacts soil warming and residue management, preparing a better seed bed for planting.
Sensors
Flexible Poly Arm Sensors
Accurately detect height.
Sensors are mounted in the tip of the snout to measure the vertical distance between their mounting location and the ground to give the combine an early warning of changes in the ground surface.
The robust design absorbs abuse and mutes bad information. Spring loaded in two directions - one to maintain constant smooth contact with the ground and the second to protect the sensor when reversing with a trip back action.
- All sensors work to form a combined average height reading
- Works with most combines made in the last 35 years
Control
HeadSight Control System
Utilize the VT already present in your combine cab.
HeadSight provides superior performance for your header height control system, delivering unparalleled reliability and seamlessly integrating header functions into the in-cab virtual terminal.
Featuring:
- Automatic calibration
- In-cab monitoring and control of header functions
- Up to 7 height sensors
The Foresight Advantage
Foresight is an advanced feature that sets HeadSight apart.
Most height control systems lose 50-75% responsiveness while the snout tips are touching the ground, so where you need the best header control, you have none. Foresight brings it back by compensating for snout movement using your height sensors.
- Improve header control near the ground
- Increase harvestable yield in down corn
- Add protection for chopping heads
- Faster harvest speeds
