From the Dieci company a stand with twelve technological models of the range
The title of the famous 1967 film by Robert Aldrich aptly introduces the agricultural machines that Dieci company showcased in Hannover: 12 models, including fixed and articulated telehandlers and full-electric models, clearly demonstrating the company’s efforts to increase efficiency, productivity, and sustainability for farms Dieci is one of the four telehandler manufacturers in Italy that nearly fully cover the domestic market, despite competition from the more established tractor brands. This prominence is linked to an offering capable of meeting any operational need, featuring exclusive and innovative technical solutions and fundamentally…
Read MoreMultirow: a system for phytosanitary treatments
Called Multirow, the system operates through ultrasonic sensors installed on the tractor rather than on the implement itself. This setup allows the vegetation Improving the quality and precision of crop protection treatments in specialized farming — this is the goal of the new automatic boom section shut-off system for sprayers developed by Arag in collaboration with Argo Tractors, designed to integrate seamlessly with the Group’s autonomous guidance system, UltraPilot. Called Multirow, the system operates through ultrasonic sensors installed on the tractor rather than on the implement itself. This setup allows…
Read MoreMiplus System by MaterMacc: precise and increasingly digital sowing
More controlled and precise sowing thanks to new digital solutions — Miplus System. This is MaterMacc’s proposal for optimizing work efficiency in terms of both time and results The saying goes that “fast and good don’t go together.” That may be true when work depends solely on the operator’s intuition, since even the most experienced person cannot possibly monitor every change the external environment imposes on field operations. On the other hand, modern digital systems make it possible to have every control literally at your fingertips through tools designed to…
Read MoreKubota’s autonomous tractor fuel cell: a preview of the future
On the occasion of Expo 2025 in Osaka, Japan, Kubota has turned its vision of the future of agricultural mechanization into reality with a fully functional prototype of an autonomous, fuel-cell-powered tractor — the first of its kind in the world Kubota’s goal is to contribute with concrete and achievable solutions to the decarbonization of self-propelled machinery while simultaneously addressing labor shortages and population aging, phenomena affecting most advanced countries. In short, these are the objectives that Kubota aims to achieve with the launch of the world’s first hybrid-guided tractor…
Read MoreSatellite guidance system Topcorn: Universal Solution
Called Value Line Steering, this is Topcon’s new satellite guidance system designed for tractors already in operation that lack digital solutions. Compatible even with older machines, it operates using an electric steering wheel, a satellite receiver, and a touchscreen display — components that together allow the operator to set guidance patterns based on the shape of the field, while the GuideLock function eliminates the risk of overlap during passes. Fully compatible with major satellite systems, Value Line Steering can also be easily transferred from one tractor to another, thanks to…
Read MoreNew Roboton Farmer: all-purpose robot for sowing and weeding
Redefining production activities in row crops. To this end, the Czech company Roboton has recently developed its open-field robot, the Roboton Farmer – an autonomous, electrically powered vehicle capable of performing a wide range of tasks, from soil preparation and seeding to weeding and irrigation Equipped with a robotic arm and a standard three-point hitch, the new Roboton Farmer can operate in combination with any towed implement, managed through pre-set operating parameters within its control system. These parameters can also be modified as needed via a mobile application or web-based…
Read MoreRobotic Centipedes by Ground Control Robotics
Robotic Centipedes. The American company Ground Control Robotics and Georgia Tech University, both based in Atlanta, Georgia, have developed a prototype of a modular robot whose structure closely mimics that of a centipede This design of Robotic Centipedes was chosen as it is considered the most suitable for allowing the robot to operate at ground level, examining weeds up close and almost directly with its onboard cameras, and then neutralizing them either with targeted herbicide sprays or mechanically using gripping tools. The robot’s multi-legged, morphologically redundant locomotion system also ensures…
Read MoreAgriculture and Artificial Intelligence, Claas joins the AI Innovation Park
For Claas artificial intelligence offers enormous potential for increasing productivity, efficiency, work quality, and after-sales service, especially in agriculture. This is why Claas is joining the AI Innovation Park (IPAI) for far-reaching technologies in the development of agricultural machinery through the sustainable and responsible use of AI Artificial intelligence, for Claas AI will be the most powerful driver of innovation. AI will become increasingly commonplace in agriculture within the next few years. The agricultural machinery industry has also recognized this phenomenon, with manufacturers demanding the safe use of AI both…
Read MoreMerlo Cingo Range, specialist machines in expansion
Originally conceived as transporters for handling light loads, Merlo’s Cingo series self-propelled machines have evolved significantly over time. Now positioning themselves as compact specialist machines capable of performing a wide range of tasks From their market debut in 2002, the “Cingo” series transporters were presented by the Merlo Group not merely as mechanical wheelbarrows—as their appearance might have suggested—but as true work systems. These were machines designed to handle a wide variety of agricultural or construction activities simply by changing their attachments. Over time, this concept has become increasingly pronounced,…
