2019 Soil Max Intellislope® EM400MP

2019 Soil Max Intellislope®

Water management is an important part of maximizing yield. Properly tiled fields help extend planting windows, promote better root development, reduce field compaction, increase nutrient accessibility and improve consistency of crop emergence. The Intellislope® tile plow control system eliminates the need for complicated laser surveying equipment and makes installing tile easy. If you can drive a tractor, you can install drainage tile with Intellislope®.

• Increase field operation windows and reduce field compaction.

• Reduce yield-robbing effects of denitrification due to poor drainage.

• Provide deeper root zone and earlier soil warm up for better crop development.

• Eliminate hassles associated with laser surveying equipment/services.

• Do-it-yourself tile planning, recording and installation.

• Tile on your schedule with equipment you already own.

• Achieve professional grade results.

Features may include:

• The Topography reference layer allows you to visualize variations in elevation throughout the field when it is difficult to see with the naked eye. This makes it easier to ensure tile is placed in the lowest areas of the field, and to allow the best placement of tile for the most connections.

• Can be done ahead of time with an ATV, or at the time of installation with the tile plow utilizing RTK GPS. Collect surveys by driving over the path where tile needs to be placed to collect the surface elevation.

• Enter the desired minimum/maximum target depths, as well as the minimum grade to drain excess water from the field. This can be done in the field or with the SMS™ Advanced Water Management Module.

• Use the plan you created to install tile using AutoTile® to adjust the depth of the plow automatically. You can also use Grade control or Pitch control modes as needed.

• Millions of feet of installed tile prove how well AutoTile® works to keep tile on grade. A three-step process to Survey, Plan, and Install the tile is as simple as it sounds. The system now has the added benefit of roll correction to keep the tile depth at the desired level on side slopes.

• As surveys are collected, a guidance line is created with the survey. When the survey is loaded for installation, manual guidance, assisted or integrated steering can be used to ensure that the tile is placed where the survey was recorded.

• Well-drained soils encourage deeper root development and healthier crops.

• Saturated soils lead to shallow root growth and poor plant development.
