Machine control Flagship product

Pilot deployment program

AG4 Control: complete control of your machine.

Installed on the combine harvester you already own, AG4 Control executes the optimized route and operates the machine's functions — speed, steering, header functions and rotor speed adjustment. You monitor remotely, the system learns with every operation and every field builds a history.

AG4 Control is in a pilot deployment program: AG4 selects machines and operations and supports each deployment with its engineering team.

What it is

What AG4 Control does.

It receives the optimized route, knows where the machine is and operates the machine throughout the job — pass by pass, turn by turn.

  • Receives
    The route from AG4 Atlas

    Passes, turns, headland and work order.

  • Knows
    Where the machine is

    Position and heading from the antenna with corrected signal.

  • Commands
    Speed, steering and header functions

    Plus rotor speed adjustment, through the machine's own electronics.

  • Records
    Field history

    Every operation is stored and improves the next routes.

  • Shows
    Remote monitoring

    See the machine and the progress of the operation from wherever you are.

Much more than following a route

Control of the machine as a whole.

AG4 Control doesn't just guide the machine: it operates the harvesting functions, optimizes the route, learns with every operation and keeps a record of everything.

Machine

Steering and speed

Drives the machine through passes, headlands and turns.

Machine

Header

Controls the header during the operation.

Machine

Rotor speed adjustment

Adjusts the machine's rotor speed to suit the operation.

Planning

Optimized route

Passes, headland and turns calculated for your field and your machine.

Intelligence

Learns with every operation

Every route executed feeds the system, which improves the next ones.

Management

Remote monitoring

See the machine, its position and the progress of the operation from wherever you are.

Management

Field history

Routes, worked area and events from every operation are recorded.

Safety

Operator in command

From the cab, the operator monitors and can pause or shut down at any time.

How AG4 Control works

AG4 test machine
AG4 Control / How it worksPlanned route
12345
  1. 01Planned route

    The route arrives ready from AG4 Atlas: passes, turns and headland.

  2. 02GNSS position

    GNSS reports where the machine is and which way it is heading.

  3. 03Control

    Control commands steering, speed, header and rotor speed.

  4. 04Machine in operation

    The machine works the field and the operation is recorded.

Integration with the machine

Connected to the machine's electronics.

Control talks to the machine over the CAN bus and monitors every module involved in the operation. The integration is defined for each model and configuration, after a technical assessment.

Atlas + Control Planning and execution

The plan and the execution speak the same language.

The route generated in AG4 Atlas is the same one AG4 Control follows on the machine — with the pass sequence, the turns and the headland.

Hardware

Electronics developed by AG4.

Boards, CAN interfaces and modules designed and tested by AG4 engineering — first on the bench, then on the machine.

Digital farm The system learns

Control learns your fields.

With every operation, the machine records its position with corrected signal and the slope of the terrain. That data becomes the digital map of the farm — terrain, slope, waterlogged areas and obstacles — and each operation helps improve the next.

Compatibility

It starts with your machine.

Each integration depends on the model, year, electronics and installed systems. AG4 engineering assesses the configuration before any proposal.

Evolution of Control

Where we are and where we're going.

V1 Pilot program

Assisted operation

The system operates the machine on the optimized route. The operator stays in the cab, monitors and can pause at any time.

V2 In development

Remote operation

Next stage: commanding the operation remotely, in compatible applications.

V3 Vision

Autonomous operation

Future vision: the machine operates on its own, within defined and validated conditions.

The stages indicate the direction of development. Availability, scope and conditions of each version are confirmed by AG4 for each application.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Does AG4 Control work on any machine?

Not necessarily. The integration depends on the model, year, electronics and installed systems. That's why every application starts with a technical assessment by AG4 engineering.

Does AG4 Control only guide the machine?

No. Besides executing the route, it operates the machine's functions — steering, speed, header and rotor speed adjustment —, lets you monitor the operation remotely and records the history of every field.

Where does the route the machine executes come from?

From AG4 Atlas. Atlas uses the map of the area, the machine's characteristics and the operation history to calculate the optimized route: passes, turns and work order.

Does the operator need to be in the cab?

In assisted operation (V1), yes: the operator stays in the cab. Remote operation and autonomous operation are stages in the product's evolution, with availability confirmed by AG4 for each application.

Does the machine need an antenna?

Yes. The operation uses an antenna with corrected signal to know the machine's position and heading. The right equipment is defined during the technical assessment.

Does it work with the display I already have?

The route from AG4 Atlas can be exported to displays from other brands. Complete control of the machine — functions, stops and alerts, history, diagnostics and remote monitoring — happens on the AG4 terminal.

Is AG4 Control already on sale?

AG4 Control is in a pilot deployment program. AG4 selects machines and operations and supports each deployment with its engineering team, ahead of broad commercial availability.
