Device and method for measuring the properties of hay using near infrared spectroscopy on a large square baler

A device and method comprising a large square baler with a pre-comprssion chamber that accumulates hay and moves it into the compression chamber, one or more near infrared specrocopy (NIRS) sensors mounted near the top of the pre-compression chamber, a means to read inputs from the sensors only when...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A device and method comprising a large square baler with a pre-comprssion chamber that accumulates hay and moves it into the compression chamber, one or more near infrared specrocopy (NIRS) sensors mounted near the top of the pre-compression chamber, a means to read inputs from the sensors only when the stuffer forks are moving hayfrom the pre-compression chamber into the main chamber and a processor to average multiple readings from the nirs sensors from that inteval.
