Equipment Explorer

Who Needs Equipment Explorer?

Equipment decisions are expensive. Make them with confidence.

Growers & Ag Tech Specialists

Can't evaluate if new equipment will actually improve productivity on their fields

Considering expansion but unsure if current fleet can handle more acres

Generic calculators ignore field shape, terrain, and real-world inefficiencies

Making six-figure equipment decisions based on guesswork

Equipment Explorer solves this:

Simulate equipment performance on your actual fields
Evaluate expansion capacity with existing or new equipment
Compare real productivity: time, turns, distance, overlap
Make confident decisions backed by field-specific data

Equipment OEMs & Dealers

Equipment is more expensive and complex than ever

No simple way to demonstrate comparative value to growers

Limited face-to-face time during busy season to make your case

Growers skeptical of generic productivity claims

Can't quantify ROI of precision tech upgrades on real fields

Losing deals to competitors who can't prove value either

Equipment Explorer solves this:

Demonstrate value on the grower's actual fields
Show real productivity gains, not theoretical numbers
Quantify ROI of GPS upgrades and section control

Win deals with field-specific performance data
Capture grower field data for deeper engagement
Competitive advantage that closes more sales

Why Generic Calculators Fail

Theoretical productivity ignores what actually happens in the field

Generic Calculators

✗ Only factor working width and speed
✗ Ignore field size, shape, and terrain
✗ Don't account for turns and maneuvering time
✗ Same result for irregular and square fields
✗ Theoretical productivity that never matches reality

Path planning on actual field boundaries
Accounts for field shape, size, and terrain
Includes turning time and maneuvering inefficiencies
Different results for different field characteristics
Effective field productivity that matches reality

Compare What Actually Matters

Real performance metrics on real fields

Equipment Configurations

Compare different working widths, speeds, and models to find optimal setup for specific fields.

Combine cutter bar widths
High-speed vs. traditional planters
Sprayer boom sizes

GPS Accuracy Upgrades

Quantify ROI of upgrading GPS by showing reduced overlap and input savings on actual fields.

RTK vs. standard GPS
Pass-to-pass overlap reduction
Product cost savings

Section Control Technology

Demonstrate value by comparing overlap waste across different section widths and configurations.

Individual nozzle control
3-meter section widths
Input waste reduction
