AgGPS® EZ-Boom™ 2010 Automated Application Control System

The new AgGPS EZ-Boom 2010 boom switching and spray rate control system system from Trimble is designed to help growers cut input costs, ensure the accuracy of spray applications, and reduce stress during peak fieldwork periods.
 
 It works with the Trimble AgGPS EZ-Guide® Plus lightbar guidance system, AgGPS EZ-Steer™ assisted steering system and AgGPS Autopilot™ automated steering system. AgGPS EZ-Boom adds value to these Trimble systems by:

 

bulletAutomatically controlling up to 10 separate automated boom sections, avoiding overspray and untreated gaps on angled end rows, terraces, waterways and other no-spray areas electronically "flagged" within a field. The EZ-Boom system also calculates total applied area, automatically subtracting no-spray areas, so the applicator knows exactly how much spray has been used.
 
bulletDelivering precise rate control field reducing the application cost of the chemical, and maximizing the performance of the application—no more empty tank with two rounds to go! The EZ-boom system uses signals from the flow meter and GPS speed to automatically adjust flow rate. By using the GPS for accurate speed measurement, the need for ground radar is eliminated. This reduces operator distraction and ensures the best-possible application job.
 
bulletSimplifying installation and reduces equipment costs for spray systems. The EZ-Boom 2010 system works in conjunction with, or replaces most currently available rate controllers. So if it's time to replace your "old faithful" system or upgrade it to automatic boom section control, the AgGPS EZ-Boom 2010 system—along with an AgGPS EZ-Guide Plus system or AgGPS EZ-Steer system—will help you do the job at a highly competitive price.
 
bulletProducing an exact real-time summary map that shows the sprayed area that is viewable on both the EZ-Guide Plus system and the AgGPS FieldManager™ display, now an applicator can be certain that the entire field has been applied. Using the FieldManager display a summary report and map can be generated and viewed in any Web browser, making it easy to read by all customers.

 

The EZ-Boom system automatically performs several critical functions that help save chemicals while protecting crops and the environment—and does them far more accurately than is possible with any human operator. The new AgGPS EZ-Boom 2010 system also helps protect operators against claims of improper or incomplete application, providing peace of mind that they've done the best application job possible.

Growers have three options for installing the new EZ-Boom 2010 system to interface directly into flow meters and valves, depending on existing equipment and desired performance features. Those familiar with Trimble EZ-systems will require about 15 minutes to learn how to operate the AgGPS EZ-Boom 2010 automated application control system.

Performance highlights:

bulletMakes application operations more effective and economical... saves input costs by reducing over and under application of fertilizers and crop protection chemicals
bulletUser can gain rate control performance from EZ-Guide Plus system and still make good use of existing controllers without having to buy additional equipment
bulletPrecisely applies target rate across the entire field to ensure best-possible application job
bulletWorks with many popular spraying systems
bulletReduces operator stress by eliminating need to monitor pressure gauges outside the cab
bulletEasy-to-learn... in about 15 minutes for those familiar with basic GPS tools such as the AgGPS EZ-Guide Plus lightbar guidance system or AgGPS EZ-Steer assisted steering system.
