IDS - The intelligent distributor head

IDS - flexibility that pays dividends

The unique IDS system (Intelligent Distribution System) controls all outlets via the bus system. This opens up completely new capabilities in seed row and tramline switching. With IDS, there are no limits to the freedom you have when working. IDS is perfect for contractors and machinery rings.

It is easy to set the tramlines at the terminal - there is no need to change the hoses.

Choose any of the following:

• Tramline widths

• Track widths

• Special tramline switching

• Dual tramline systems

• Half-width shut-off

The intelligent heart of the system

The IDS distributor head ensures uniform crop growth by maintaining a completely consistent seed count in all coulter pipes.

Reliable and straightforward: Tramline switching

Tramline switching

Tramline switching is performed electronically using actuator motors. Straighforward setting and monitoring functions using the terminal.

Seed flow sensors

For convenience and reliability

Seed flow sensors

Convenient seed flow monitoring on all PÖTTINGER pneumatic seed drills. Each coulter pipe is fitted with a sensor which checks the seed flow. The sensor sensitivity can be adjusted in three stages depending on the seed material (fine, normal, large).

Seed flow monitoring is displayed on each terminal, on the POWER CONTROL, EXPERT 75, CCI 1200 and on the ISOBUS tractor terminal. In the event of a blockade, the driver receives a message about the current status. If a coulter pipe becomes blocked, the row number is displayed directly on the terminal.

Additional convenience is provided by the LED lights mounted directly on the sensor on each coulter pipe. This allows the driver to immediately detect the clogged seed line even when the seed drill is dusty or at night.
