Zusammenfassung:A system for detecting material accumulation relative to rotating ground-engaging tools includes an agricultural implement having a frame and first and second ground-engaging tools supported relative to the frame, with the first ground-engaging tool corresponding to a different tool type than the second ground-engaging tool. The system also includes first and second speed sensor configured to provide data indicative of the rotational speeds of the first and second ground-engaging tools, respectively. In addition, the system includes a computing system communicatively coupled to the first and second speed sensors. The computing system is configured to monitor the rotational speeds of the ground-engaging tools based on the data provided by the speed sensors, determine a speed correlation between the rotational speed of the first ground-engaging tool and the rotational speed of the second ground-engaging tool, and determine when the speed correlation differs from a speed correlation threshold associated with the ground-engaging tools.
