Reinke announces its new Pivoting Lateral Move System designed to combine the benefits of a center pivot with those of a lateral move irrigation system. The Reinke Pivoting Lateral Move System with integrated GPS guidance technology is ideal for irregular-shaped fields, allowing growers to increase irrigated acreage and put under-utilized land to work. The system can be readily programmed to perform a multitude of designs including common path configurations such as outward and inward swings (180 degrees and 90 degrees), and can be setup to autonomously move between a pivot mode and a lateral mode. Programming of the system is designed for a grower-friendly approach using the industry’s only Pivoting Lateral Field Designer program and ready setup through Reinke’s Touch Screen Control Panel. The panel has been customized specifically for the Pivoting Lateral Move System allowing growers to import an image of their field and program the stages to cover every available acre. With no limit on the number of possible stages to configure and with visual confirmation of what has been programmed, growers have complete control of how their system moves throughout the field.
