Flex-folding
AMAZONE offers two electro-hydraulically actuated boom fold options, Flex-fold 1 and Flex-fold 2. Each boom folding joint is equipped with an electro-hydraulic valve block that is directly controlled by the machine software. This enables faster folding procedures. As soon as the first boom section is folded in or out by approximately 70%, the next section automatically starts to fold in or out.

In addition to the benefits already outlined, Flex-fold 1 provides the following extra functions:
- Height adjustment
- Folding in and out
- One-sided independent fold at reduced speeds (max. 6 km/h)
- Boom width reduction
- Tilt adjustment
Benefits of Flex-fold:
- Shorter turn-round times through quicker folding
- Easy working width Regulation
Flex-fold 2
In addition to the advantages mentioned previously, Flex-fold 2 offers the following functions:
- One-sided/simultaneous positive boom angling
