More Information
Summary:A stacking head's path can be dynamically calculated during a stacking operation. A control system of a sod harvester can include a dynamic path calculator for performing these dynamic calculations to prevent the stacking head from colliding with the sod harvester's frame or to cause the stacking head to traverse the most efficient path between the pickup position and the stacking position. These dynamic calculations could be performed in scenarios where the pickup position may be dynamically adjusted for a particular stacking operation.
