Power Up your Sprayer with These Three Precision Upgrades

Make your application more accurate, efficient and profitable by updating your older Case IH Patriot® sprayer with precision technology.

Case IH precision technology can unlock every machine’s full potential in every season. Upgrading your Case IH Patriot® sprayer with the latest technology helps you save time, money and resources while making your work as efficient as possible. Here are a few quick ways to boost your efficiency today:

1. Add autoguidance to make driving easier and rows straighter. The RS1™ receiver adds terrain-compensated GPS capability with up to sub-inch accuracy. From there, you can add VSN® Visual Guidance to be an “extra set of eyes” that automatically detects and steers around crops from post-emergence to full canopy height.
2. Upgrade your display and get a brighter, larger screen. Try the Raven Viper® 4+ for more control options specific to Raven application technologies.
3. Activate connected features by adding a Case IH modem through your Case IH dealer. This further improves application accuracy. It also unlocks more proactive and remote service capabilities from your dealer or trusted advisors.
   Activate Raven Slingshot® to get access to in-depth Field Analytics, efficiently dispatch tasks from field to display through the Connected Workflow®, enable multi-machine operations through Job Sync, and more. Utilizing Slingshot capabilities can help you be up to 20% more efficient in day-to-day operations. Model Year 2023 and newer machines come standard with a 5-year Gold subscription. Contact your Case IH dealer to activate Slingshot today.
4. Download and connect your machines to FieldOps™ to view and manage your entire operation anytime, anywhere. Connect your Slingshot® data to FieldOps to see all your data in one place.

From there, power up your application season with more sprayer technology upgrades.

Why is precision technology important for spraying?

There are a lot of things you can get “wrong” with spraying applications. The wrong boom height can cause inputs to drift from their desired target. The wrong droplet size also can have an impact on the effectiveness of the spray coverage. Also, if you overlap the same place twice, you waste inputs and end up harming your yield potential.
Precision technology helps prevent these issues. It ensures the right rate of inputs is applied in the right spot with the right boom height, droplet size and coverage. This gives every acre the precise amount of protection, nutrients, and aid it needs without wasting inputs.

Top 3 Case IH Sprayer Technology Upgrades

These aftermarket upgrades simply improve your sprayer’s accuracy, machine life and automation for a high-impact stress-free drive.

1. AIM Command FLEX™ II Nozzle Control – Maintain the ideal chemical application rate, pressure and accuracy, regardless of speed or terrain. AIM Command FLEX II sprays at faster speeds with 17% higher flow rates than AIM Command FLEX. As you turn your sprayer or accelerate, the system adjusts every individual nozzle to ensure the entire field is covered evenly.
2. AutoBoom® XRT – Keep your booms at the right height at all times for better spray coverage. This system of radar sensors monitors the ground, canopy height, and machine movement to adjust the boom to keep it in its intended position. As a result, the boom stays closer to the target height with less variability, maximizing boom life and minimizing crop damage.
3. Augmenta® Field Analyzer – this cab-mounted sensor makes more efficient use of every input in variable rate applications (VRA) by automatically controlling application rates based on detected crop conditions. Augmenta maximizes input effectiveness to increase yields, saves inputs to reduce environmental impact and input costs, and visualizes input cost savings in real-time on a web-based analytics and monitoring platform. Mount it to your sprayer’s cab to make VRA as efficient and accurate as possible.
