Congratulations AmaTron!

The 100,000th unit goes out

The 100,000th AmaTron gives AMAZONE the opportunity to look back on a successful history of development of the versatile ISOBUS terminal. The development started at AMAZONE back in 1985 with the first AmaTron generation. This allowed the fully automatic regulation of the desired application rate with fertiliser spreaders. An increasingly wide range of functions for the monitoring and fully automatic operation of agricultural machinery were added in the years that followed. In the meantime, the terminal can be used on all AMAZONE fertiliser spreaders, plant protection equipment and seed drills as well as on ISOBUS-compatible machines from other manufacturers. The current version, the AmaTron 4, offers the user the highest operator comfort, meaning that easy working becomes a matter of course, even with complex machines. This is because the distinctive feature of the AmaTron 4 is the intuitive operation of all the functions thanks to the logical menu navigation. The AMAZONE design team has been responsible for the external design and the easy operability of the AmaTron 4. They played a key role in designing both the shape of the terminal and the concept for the operator navigation, i.e. the hardware and software user interface. The electronics and software were developed in close cooperation with the company Müller-Elektronik.
