SENSOSAFE is an automated sensor-based assistance system that detects animals; during mowing it enables you to identify fawns and other wild animals hiding in the field and to save them from getting caught by the mower. You prevent carcasses from contaminating your forage and avoid the risk of your cattle contracting botulism. This system helps you protect wildlife and your livestock at the same time.
A bar with near infrared sensors is mounted in front of the mower. These work independently of daylight and temperature. Unlike thermal imaging cameras, you can rely on SENSOSAFE to work properly in all types of operating conditions.
With SENSOSAFE you complete two tasks work in one: Mowing and detecting wildlife. No additional time or personnel needed for searching the fields prior to mowing. What's more, you don't need special training or a permit to operate the SENSOSAFE system.
The sensor bar is mounted directly on the front mower. If the sensors detect an animal, the mower's hydraulics system automatically raises the front mower. In addition, it sends a signal to the tractor cab so that the driver can stop the tractor.
SENSOSAFE ALPHA MOTION is available as an option for NOVACAT ALPHA MOTION MASTER and PRO mowers.
On the SENSOSAFE 1000, the sensor bar is fitted to a mounting frame and utilises the front hitch hydraulics. The sensors send a signal to the tractor cab if anything is detected. This gives the driver plenty of time to stop the tractor and raise the mower.
This solution is manufacturer-independent and can be used with your existing mower.
SENSOSAFE 1000 is designed for mower combinations between 8 and 10 metres wide.
