First launched in 2024, the Novacat F 3100 Opticurve will be available with the Profiline comfort control system as an option for 2026.
With the Profiline comfort control system, the mower steers left and right automatically depending on the turning angle of the tractor and the inclination of the slope.
The information needed to do this is transmitted by an acceleration sensor fitted to the mower.
By including the tractor's turning angle signal, the accuracy of the calculation increases even further.
The mower is controlled either using the tractor's IsoBus terminal or a select control terminal. Hydraulic oil is supplied by a load-sensing or power beyond system.
Advantages
Pottinger explains that the side-shift system is noticeable when cornering and on slopes because it provides a perfect overlap with the rear mower and ensures the tractor drives along a clear track free of forage.
With the Profiline comfort control system, the mower steers left and right automatically depending on the turning angle of the tractor and the inclination of the slope.
The curved movement means that the entire working width of the cutter bar can be used and the effective width of the mower combination maximised.
This technology has the ability to detect changing degrees of overlap between the front mower and the tractor or rear mower(s) and respond automatically.
The result is no grass is driven over and no feathers left standing, either when cornering or on steep ground.
