Data-driven decisions Data-driven decisions

Harvest Monitor is an industry-exclusive technology from John Deere.  Harvest Monitor gathers and analyzes valuable harvest information, enabling sugarcane producers to make smarter decisions that drive down harvesting costs and improve overall farming practices.

 

From the cab, the operator can monitor total tons harvested, harvester productivity, trash percentage, and fuel consumption. The operator can then use this information to make on-the-fly adjustments to optimize performance.

 

SmartClean is the latest enhancement of Harvest Monitor that allows automatic control of primary extractor fan speed based on the operator’s preferences in order to obtain the most profitable balance between cane cleanliness and reduced loss.

 

Through the John Deere Operations Center, the data can be processed to generate yield and other valuable maps and reports that will guide producers into making the right decisions on soil and water management, chemical application, crop renewal, field layout, equipment logistics, and much more.

 

Harvest Monitor with SmartClean is available as an option for model year 2021 CH570 and CH670 Sugar Cane Harvesters as part of Cane Advisor™ machine optimization technology package (code 2904). It can also be purchased as a field-installed kit for all CH570 and CH670 models. A separate SmartClean field-installed kit is available for CH570 and CH670 models already equipped with Harvest Monitor.

Harvest Monitor is much more than just a yield monitor. It includes:    

  • Optical yield monitor
  • Elevator optical extraneous matter (trash) monitor
  • Primary extractor cane loss monitor
  • Primary extractor residue (trash) discharge monitor
  • Fuel per ton monitor
  • Pour-rate monitor
  • Elevation monitor
  • Transport load counter

Harvest Monitor was designed to operate efficiently in all weather conditions.  It is a low maintenance system with no additional wear items thanks to its optical technology that does not require direct contact with the cane.

Optical yield and trash monitor technology

The system converts the volumes to mass in order to obtain tons of cane and extraneous matter level.

SmartClean system, an intelligent way of cleaning cane
SmartClean illustration SmartClean illustration

With the use of sensors, the SmartClean system detects cane being lost through the primary extractor and displays it on the CommandCenter screen as an index. The level of residue or cane leaves being removed is also detected and displayed as an index.

 

Aiming at the best economic outcome for the operation, the operator selects the target level of the following parameters and lets the system continuously and automatically find the appropriate primary extractor fan speed:

  • Elevator extraneous matter (trash)
  • Primary extractor cane loss
  • Primary extractor residue discharge

 

SmartClean enables operational consistency throughout the day regardless of weather conditions and individual operator practices.

Understanding the residue level is important for biomass power generation projects to determine residue collection logistics and viability.

While harvesting, the display will show:

  • Harvester pour rate (ton/h)
  • Extraneous matter (trash percentage)
  • Primary extractor cane loss (index)
  • Primary extractor residue discharge (index)
  • Fuel consumption (L/ton or gal./ton)
  • Yield (ton/ha or ton/acre)
  • Transport load count
  • Live elevator cane flow video

 

The CommandCenter display layout is configurable so the operator can have Harvest Monitor and SmartClean displayed together on the same screen.


Average, best, and current values of extraneous matter, fuel consumption, and pour rate are displayed instantaneously or as historical figures. Also available on the display is a summary report of all data.

 

Pour rate is defined as how fast the cane flows through the machine and is measured in tons per hour (ton/h).  A soft key enables the operator to toggle between elevator hours (elevator pour rate) and total harvester hours (harvester pour rate). This soft key also changes the reading of fuel consumption using either elevator or total harvester hours.

 

A yield map can also be seen on the display, as well as live video of cane as it flows through the elevator.

Hydrostatic basecutter and chopper maximize efficiency and performance

Basecutter and chopper
Piston motor-driven basecutter Piston motor-driven basecutter
Piston motor-driven chopper Piston motor-driven chopper

The CH570's basecutter and chopper set the benchmark for cutting and feeding in the global market. The standard 251-kW (337-hp) engine option has the basecutter and chopper on one high-pressure hydrostatic circuit driven by a powerful piston pump maximizing efficiency. The 280-kW (375-hp) option includes an additional piston pump so that the basecutter and chopper are in two independent circuits, increasing the capacity to process the heaviest cane.

Basecutter and buttlifter
Hard-surfaced closed buttlifter Hard-surfaced closed buttlifter

The basecutter is driven by a powerful hydraulic piston motor. Its center-driven design with just four gears, balances the load and reduces wear, and is housed in a more robust cast-iron gearbox.

The basecutter features large, standard 61-cm (24-in.) disks that can be upgraded to 55.9-cm (22-in.) steel disks to allow dirt to flow through in muddier conditions.

Contour basecutter height control is a factory option that adjusts the basecutter height to achieve a predetermined cane stubble height.
 
Once cut, the CH570's rotating, standard three-paddle closed buttlifter kicks the cane stalks up into the feedroller path and removes excess dirt before it enters.

Optional four-bar open buttlifter Optional four-bar open buttlifter

This option will allow more dirt removal than the current three-paddle closed option.

Chopper

The modular chopper assembly is independent from the harvester’s main frame, providing a better fit and easier service. It sits on rubber mounts to absorb vibrations.

 

The chopping area is larger with longer blades and contact is even through the whole length.

 

Simpler service, longer component life, uniform higher quality billets, and better feeding into the primary cleaning chamber are the results.

Chopper with exclusive sill roller Chopper with exclusive sill roller

A powerful, hydraulic-piston motor drives the 380-mm (15-in.) differential chopper fitted with either six, eight, or 10 95-mm (3.75-in.) blades. The externally mounted bearings are simple to replace. The chopper shafts have no splines to wear, and they can easily slide out from the side for service. The chopper cover is International Organization for Standardization (ISO) compliant.

 

Eight-blade and 10-blade overlap choppers are also available, increasing the life of the blades in most conditions and simplifying removal and replacement.

 

The blades are 910-mm (35.8-in.) long or 6.3 cm (2.5 in.) longer than previous model.

 

Approximate billet length:

  • Six blade - 230 to 250 mm (9 to 10 in.)
  • Eight blade - 180 to 200 mm (7 to 8 in.)
  • Ten blade - 150 to 180 mm (6 to 7 in.)
Sill roller

An exclusive sill roller helps to feed the cane billets into the primary extractor. Even billet movement augments cleaning. It also prevents billet back-feeding and accumulation on the sill.

The CH570's reliable cleaning system yields the cleanest cane in the industry. Cleaner cane, less billet loss, and less downtime will bring more profit.

Primary extractor
The largest primary extractor in the industry The largest primary extractor in the industry
Wider blades and conical hub Wider blades and conical hub

The CH570 boasts the largest primary extractor fan in the industry — using four blades that measure 152 cm (5 ft) in diameter. This fan cleans at lower speeds, reducing horsepower consumption and cane losses.

 

The fan speed can be adjusted effortlessly from the cab to adapt to the different cane conditions by simply varying the pump displacement. The fan is driven by a robust and efficient hydrostatic system with piston pump and motor.

 

The fan is mounted directly to the motor shaft, which means no bearings, no blade balancing, less vibration, and fewer components. The motor drive support system features four rubber-mounted legs to improve fan stability and reduce vibrations. The primary extractor fan's motor is internally mounted and does not need to be removed for transport.

 

The conical hub cover reduces air voids and recirculation while the wide-design blade produces more airflow at lower rpm. The hard-surfaced blades combined with operating at a much lower speed results in significantly longer blade life.

Smart power primary extractor setting Smart power primary extractor setting

The smart power primary extractor feature is available to automatically reduce the extractor fan speed to a preset minimum when the elevator is turned off.

Elevator
Robust structural tube frame elevator with perforated floor Robust structural tube frame elevator with perforated floor

The CH570 features a high-capacity, structural tube-frame elevator for extended durability. The elevator's perforated floor allows additional dirt to fall through after primary extraction. The top and bottom idler sprockets reduce wear and prolong the elevator's chain life. 

 

The tall sidewalls and 18-cm (7-in.) reversible slats will handle the heaviest cane, keeping billets from toppling over and falling back down the elevator. All of this sits on the CH570's heavy-duty swing table, designed to withstand the heaviest loads and toughest field conditions. The swing table also features an exclusive slew wiper to keep the area clean.

 

The elevator hoses are routed inside the solid frame, promoting longer life by improving protection and minimizing exposure. Bolt-on elevator extensions are also available to provide additional reach for wider row spacing. The extensions are 30.5 cm (12 in.) for wheel or track units; and 61 cm or 86 cm (24 in. or 34 in.) for track units only. The 61-cm (24-in.) extension can be ordered for wheel harvesters but it requires the less-secondary-extractor option.

 

On the CH570, the elevator controls were moved from the floor pedals to the multifunction control lever for ease of operation. The control switches feature a double detent system so that the elevator swings approximate 90 degrees without having to depress the switch continuously. The above will help the operator to concentrate on other functions when turning around on the headland while the elevator is rotating.

Optional without secondary extractor Optional without secondary extractor

The secondary extractor provides even more cleaning prior to loading. Its unique design allows trash to be blown away from the wagons more efficiently. The hood rotates a full 360 degrees, so it can be set at any angle. 

 

The hydraulically adjustable bin flap directs billets into the wagon. The ideal fan speed allows the best cleaning with low horsepower consumption. For growers who burn cane, a less-secondary-extractor option is available.

John Deere-exclusive floating crop divider and contour basecutter height-control technology reduces soil content and cane loss

Optional features
Floating crop dividers and contour basecutter height control Floating crop dividers and contour basecutter height control
#

The unique floating crop divider technology was inherited by the CH570 and enhanced with an updated linkage system. The floating crop dividers follow the ground profile without plowing while constantly keeping the toe under lodged cane. The benefits are lower soil content, reduced cane loss, and minimum soil disturbance.

 

The precision of the exclusive contour basecutter height control is enhanced with the addition of a pressure signal to the existing position input. The system ensures that cane is cut at the desired height, resulting in higher yield (tons of sugar/ha), cleaner cane, and healthier stubble for improved future crops.

 

Operators can count on these systems to accurately control the basecutter and crop dividers. This allows more time to concentrate on other functions such as topping, following the row, and loading.

 

Basecutter height control and floating crop dividers are included in the Precision Ag, Machine Optimization Technology option (code 2903).

 

Reduce operator fatigue with the HMS™ headland management system

HMS can be programmed to control some of or all the following harvesting functions:

  • Topper direction
  • Crop divider pause
  • Engine mid throttle
  • Side knives engagement
  • Steering bias
  • Feed train pause
  • Primary hood rotate
  • Secondary hood rotate
  • Topper height
