WINTERSTEIGER, after every production series, we try to
incorporate optimisations into the next series. To do this we
include the feedback of sales staff, customer service
technicians and above all, you, our customers.
In
2007 more than 3,700 hours of development were used to optimise
the current series. Over 30 partial projects were implemented in
2007 in order to improve the current series even further! The
optimisations may be summarised mainly as follows:
- Ongoing optimisation of
performance (reduction of working time/plot) regarding
machine parameters, and also in conjunction with harvest
data collection and moisture measurement
- Reduction of grain loss
- Optimisation of mix-free
planting
- Measures for stabilisation
during use, even under extreme climatic or geographic
conditions
- Improvement of health and
safety issues (e.g. noise reduction in the cab)
More detailed information
about the updates may be found in the
Products section.
Please get in touch with us - we will be pleased to advise
you!
