Knight enhances tech offering for latest sprayers

Knight Trailblazer trailed sprayers (3,600–12,000 litres/24–40m) connect to any Isobus tractor’s terminal or Knight’s Touch 800/1200.

An automated filling system works from the cab or filling station. Spec includes self-levelling air suspension and steering axle with gyroscopic tracking, plus automatic hillside correction.

MAXImizer PRO minimises boom pipework for faster response and minimal retained fluid, with a reduction of 21% cutting retained volume by 7.5 litres on a 36m/5,200-litre Trailblazer TB5200.

Recent developments include KINS air-actuated nozzle switching technology. Single, triple or quin nozzle bodies can be specified. Each group of four bodies incorporates a Smart Module configurable to provide section or individual nozzle switching.

Vario Select nozzle automation uses combinations of four different capacity nozzles simultaneously on each body to provide up to 16 application rates up to 800 litres/min.

Also suited to spot spraying in conjunction with prescription maps, it allows selection of the required application rate and droplet size, minimum/maximum pressures and working speed range, and then selects the most suitable nozzles.

Vario Select also governs flexible rate control, and provides Curve-Control turn compensation through gyroscope measurement and instant switching between nozzle types to compensate for inner and outer nozzles’ different speeds when turning.

Knight’s 4D Active Boom Control provides fast ground contour following and consistent nozzle height.

All this technology is also available in the Knight 2400 series of 3,500–6,000-litre/24–40m self-propelled sprayers.
