[QUOTE="Northern farmer, post: 4161350, member: 4568"] Note that I'm not after settings that give perfect coverage. Roughly speaking the implement parameters make no difference as long as you have the same tractor/screen and the same implement (no difference for the real coverage, coverage mapping on the screen could well be affected but even there not between two passes). Unfortunately I do not seem to be able to explain the scenario clearly, my fault certainly (not only because of a language barrier). The essential part of my scenario is that the field is first drilled with a trailed drill and later sprayed with a mounted sprayer. One ought to use the same waylines that the drilling tractor does. Here comes the big difference between the two steering algorithms. If the field is drilled with a Fendt/VarioGuide, the sprayer tractor (independently of the screen brand) would follow the tramlines that the drill created. The point being that the drill creates tramlines to the exact same position where the waylines on the screen appear. The mounted sprayer then can basically drive along the actual waylines If the field was drilled with a Topcon screen (or almost any of the other brands), the field would get properly covered, no problem there. However the drill would create tramlines that do not follow the waylines on the screen. Now if the field is sprayed with a mounted sprayer, the sprayer tractor would drive off waylines (only in curved areas though). The tractor would unnecessarily destroy plants off the waylines. Everything above concerns curved lines only and even there, only significant curves. So how do you make the mounted sprayer follow real tramlines on the field, using the curved waylines created during drilling (wayline distance obviously modified to match the difference of the width of each implement)?
