John Deere Active Fill Control is the next step for higher productivity and efficiency while forage harvesting. It is impossible for an forage harvester (SPFH) operator to constantly monitor the spout position while navigating fields and dealing with changing conditions.
That is where Active Fill Control comes in to save the day with automated truck or trailer filling. Cameras automatically detect the truck or trailer and current fill level once alongside the SPFH, ensuring consistent filling by managing spout steering, flap automation and fill strategy execution.
Watch Active Fill in action on one of our clients units below. You can see how the arrow on the monitor indicates where to fill and as it moves the spout adjusts to match that location.
Active Fill Control is available as a factory-installed option on all 8000 Series SPFH.
