Active for over 35 years in the agro-electronics segment, MC Elettronica from Fiesso Umbertiano (Rovigo) presents at EIMA its new technologies for the precision sowing sector, the Electronic Seed Driver (ESD) and the Universal Seed Control (USC). These two monitoring systems designed respectively for precision seed drills and in-line drills, are able to handle a wide range of operations, such as the laying of seeds or granular fertilizer, the distribution in proportion to the advancement speed (DPA), and the tram-line function (for USC only). Both systems are characterized by a simple structure, modular, flexible and highly technological, offering to OEMs the ability to electrify equipment through the replacement of their mechanical transmission with electric motors. This design, explains MC Elettronica, proves to be very advantageous because it allows to sow with great accuracy even at very high working speeds, increasing productivity and facilitating maintenance of the mechanical components. They are also modular devices (OEMs can therefore choose the most suitable components for their needs) that can be interfaced with leading GPS devices and integrated with other technologies on the market. Alongside the two devices for seed drills, MC Elettronica also launches in Bologna the platform “EVO T-1”, a programming tool with which manufacturers can develop independently, for any machine, software applications based on MC hardware, using a simple C# programming language. This platform, cloud-based and usable with a free licence provided by MC, allows OEMs to be owners of the project and to manage data in a secure manner.
