Latest Patent Applications

Heisel's notable patent application is titled "Method for Electronic Wind Compensation of a Fertilizer Spreader, Control System and Fertilizer Spreader." This application describes a method for electronic wind compensation of a fertilizer spreader, along with a control system designed for this purpose. The invention aims to improve the distribution of fertilizer on agricultural areas by utilizing rotating spreading discs. The positions of the feed surfaces for the fertilizer on these discs are adjusted based on desired ejection angles, which are individually adapted to counteract the effects of wind during discharge. This innovative approach allows for a more precise application of fertilizer, ensuring that the actual transverse distribution aligns closely with the desired distribution. Additionally, the rotational speeds of the spreading discs are also adjusted to compensate for wind influences, effectively addressing deviations in casting distance caused by headwinds or trailing winds.

Conclusion

Per-Christian Heisel's contributions to agricultural technology through his innovative methods demonstrate the potential for advancements in fertilizer application. His work aims to enhance efficiency and accuracy in farming practices, ultimately benefiting agricultural productivity.
