✦ Synopsis
A test with the use of potentiometric transducers, was developed to investigate boom sprayers movements.
The system was able to accurately record the movement of two points of a boom. The data processing procedure separated the movement into three vectorial components, calculated the velocity and acceleration of the inspected points and analysed these data to provide useful information, such as changes in position and velocity when evaluating boom sprayer stability. The system was combined with equipment for use on boom sprayers in operating conditions (test track or field), and to be easily dismantled, transported and reassembled in the place of the test.
