Bosch Rexroth and Agriculture 4.0: vibration and tyre pressure control

Talking about control, the new Ivas sensors are designed to allow for intelligent analysis of machine vibrations. Thanks to Rexroth’s GFT 8150 TIS (Tire Inflation System) harvesters with individual-wheel drive can now be fitted with a tire pressure control system that seamlessly integrates into the machine and is operated via the standard terminal. Controlling the tire pressure of harvesters has numerous advantages. In view of different vehicle handling characteristics on roads and on fields, fuel can be saved and driving stability can be increased at the same time.
