The folding options for the UX Super

Profi-fold or Flex-fold for boom widths up to 36 m


Profi-fold
All the hydraulic functions can be carried out safely and simply via the ISOBUS terminal in the tractor cab. The multi-function joystick makes handling particularly comfortable.

Profi-fold 1
The following functions are possible:

  • Height adjustment
  • Folding in and out
  • One-sided independent folding at reduced speeds (max. 6 km/h)
  • Boom width reduction
  • Tilt adjustment


Flex-fold
AMAZONE offers two electro-hydraulically actuated boom folding 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 has been folded out or folded in by approximately 70%, the next boom segment begins to fold in or out.

Flex-fold 1
In addition to the benefits already outlined, Flex-fold 1 provides the following functions: 

  • Height adjustment
  • Folding in and out
  • One-sided independent folding at reduced speeds (max. 6 km/h)
  • Boom width reduction
  • Tilt adjustment


Flex-fold 2
In addition to the advantages mentioned previously, Flex-fold 2 offers the following functions:

  • Independent / both-sided positive boom angling
  • Negative boom angling of individual / both sides

Benefits of Flex-fold: 

  • Shorter turn-round times through quicker folding
  • Easy boom width regulation

1. One-sided, independent fold
2. One-sided independent fold (via Profi-fold 1 or Flex-fold)
3. Positive angling
4. Positive angling (via Flex-fold 2)
5. Negative angling
6. Negative angling (via Flex-fold 2 in combination with ContourControl)


Individual user profiles for reduced working widths

Via the user profiles in the machine software, individual profiles that recognise a reduced working width can be stored. For example, if a 33/27/21 m boom is to be folded out to only 27 m, this can be carried out quickly and easily via a profile change. After folding out has been completed, the active boom width is automatically detected and the outer nozzles are automatically deactivated via AmaSwitch plus or AmaSelect. For Section Control, the working width is automatically stored.
