Down Force Calibration

Upgrade Benefits:

  • Enhanced operator safety: Focused on removing cumbersome manual adjustments thus reducing the operator’s exposure to potentially hazardous machine touchpoints. The cylinder-assisted calibration method ensures a safer, more controlled process, minimizing the risk of work-related injuries
  • Faster, more reliable setups: Simplify the blade calibration process with a technology-driven solution that reduces training time and human error. No longer a two-person procedure; A single operator can quickly achieve more consistent and repeatable setups quicker than before
  • Increased Blade Life: Potential increase in blade and component life can result by preventing incorrect blade pressure and misalignments after blade changes

Upgrades Includes:

  • Control box (J-Box) with operator controls, potentiometer, and an E/P Valve
  • Downforce cylinder
  • Mounting plates, cables, hoses and hardware for installation

This upgrade has been a huge improvement for our operation.

It eliminates the uncertainty associated with final downforce adjustments, which is a critical step in ensuring equipment reliability. The ability to verify settings faster and more consistently, without the need to install a measurement jig, has streamlined the process and improved overall efficiency. This enhancement has been extremely beneficial to our site and has increased confidence in machine setup and performance.
