Features
Easy hitching
The drawbar for the iXtrack T3 and T4 is easy to change from top to low linkage or the other way around, depending on the linkage point of the tractor.
Maximum Steering Possibilities
The iXtrack T series offers maximum user friendliness and comfort by having a steering axle which contributes to excellent stability in different field conditions. The track width can be changed from 1.50m to 2.25 metres (1.80m to 2.25m in combination with 5300l tank capacity on iXtrack T4). This ensures maximum steering possibilities with a tight turning radius.
Smooth and Suspended
The iXtrack T series is equipped with a smooth, suspended parallogram that is active when in the field and in transport. The parallelogram combines optimal stability with soft boom balancing and limited vertical movement to minimise spray height deviations, securing correct crop coverage.
ErgoDrive Headland Management System
ErgoDrive headland management is standard equipment for the iXtrack T series. ErgoDrive assists the operator on the headland turns. It is activated by simply switching ON or OFF and ErgoDrive controls all the necessary actions, while the operator can focus on driving safely.
Turning radius
The single central frame, in combination with the special shaped parallelogram arms, create room for high tyres and allow a maximum steering angle. This ensures maximum steering possibilities with a tight turning radius, even on 1.50m track.

iXclean
ENFO priming and rinsing is standard on all Kverneland spray computers. Before spraying starts the spray lines are filled with chemicals exactly up to the nozzle by automatic shut off. After finishing or interruption, crop protection agents are automatically flushed out of the spray lines with a minimum of clean water consumption. This ENFO technology optimizes filling and cleaning of the spray lines. Accurate application, no waste of products and saving water are the benefit for the environment.
iXclean Comfort
iXclean Comfort is a semi-automatic valve control system. The combination of an electrical level indicator and suction valve provides operator comfort and accuracy; automatic filling stops when the programmed level is reached, and remote control of all ENFO rinising and priming functions are carried out from the cab! Simple prime the spray lines before you start and rinse them afterwards.
iXclean Pro
iXclean Pro is an advanced solution with fully automatic, electric valve management. It means all functions can be controlled from the cab. Switching between filling, agitation, spraying, diluting, priming, rinsing and tank cleaning, is extremely easy: just push the button! In addition iXclean Pro offers also a fully automatic multi-step rinsing and cleaning program with triple dilution for the entire sprayer. Pushing one button a comprehensive cleaning process including all lines will start. It is so thorough, that residue levels after automated cleaning are below 1%.
iXflow-E
iXflow-E is the high pressure recirculation system with electric nozzle control. There is a free circulation of chemicals with a return of spray liquid back to the tank as spraying stops. This means there is no sedimentation in the spray lines and no dead ends for spraying or cleaning, even when the boom is in vertical position. During spraying each section gets under pressure from both ends of the spray lines, so the operator can immediately start spraying without any pressure drop. It is easy for the operator to program the number and size of sections which fits the best to their requirements and field situations.
The HSS spray boom combines a minimum of weight with maximum strength and stability. Special hardened Domex steel gives the spray boom a long lasting heavy duty high quality reputation. The aluminium bonding instead of welding of the HSA spray boom range provides a weight saving and gives remarkable strength.
HSA Spray Boom
The HSA aluminium spray boom offers efficient protection of the nozzle holders within the bottom profile. This profile is designed for easy cleaning and much more. With no sharp angles, no liquid and residues can be trapped. The anodised surface protects against corrosion and scratches.
HSS Spray Boom
The HSS spray boom is designed for professional use. The triangular construction provides perfect integration of the stainless steel spray lines, nozzles and nozzle holders and the optimal hose routing where all is well protected. Working widths from 18 up to 40 metres with a variation in different section lengths offer the sprayer adapted to customer demands!
HC Spray Boom
The HC boom is the multi-talented boom in the steel boom range. The triangular steel construction and the unique anti yaw system allow high speed even in very difficult conditions. The HC boom is giving you more flexibility with functionalities for one side folding, symmetrical reduction and asymmetrical reduction depending of the choice for the electric hydraulic command. The special designed locking system allows to keep parallelogram suspended during transport.
Compact and Stable
In transport position the HSA and HSS spray boom fold away nicely over the patented tank design and far away from the tractor cab. This results in a transport width of 2.55m and a height below 4m that together with the low gravity point provides excellent stability on the road, as well in the field.
Boom Guide
Boom guide is an automatic boom height control system that helps the operator to maintain your chosen spraying height. Ultrasonic sensors control the sprayer's hydraulics to guide the boom.
Sensors with Hybrid Mode as standard
This unique sensor technology, provides excellent guidance in many different and challenging field conditions and crops. The hybrid mode not only measures the distance to the plant (upper growth), it also measures the distance to the ground or bottom parts of growth at the same time. There are three different modes:
- Soil mode: the sensors only see the bottom. The soil remains representative.
- Crop mode: the sensors only see the crop. In a closed crop the sensors continue to automatically follow the crop (top).
- Hybrid mode: the sensors see the crop and the soil. The sensors follow the soil surface and the crop. When the crop is uneven, a uniform crop is virtually determined. Used in unclosed or uneven crops.
The advantage is a perfect boom guidance at higher speed and a total respect of the optimal nozzle distance to the crop, which result in highest efficiency of the application and reducing drift to a minimum level.
Boom Guide ComfortActive
The two ultrasonic sensors, with integrated roll sensors on the boom, can control the spray height via the central slope correction and boom lift functions. A proportional hydraulic valve is steering the central, hydraulic slope correction cylinder. The cost-effective system is suited to gentle slopes, uneven crop conditions and lower driving speeds.
Boom Guide Pro
This advanced system uses three ultrasonic sensors to control left- an right-hand boom sections independently for the ultimatic guidance in the most challenging field conditions. It can deliver positive and negative lateral movement on each side of the boom to follow the contours in every situation!
Boom Guide ProActive
The system proactively reacts on boom movement and controls both the central and independent slope correction, as well as boom lift functions to guide the boom over the crop canopy, soil surface or a combination of both modes.
Boom Guide 5 Sensor Extension
The Boom Guide 5 sensor extension provides two additional ultrasonic sensors to ensure proper height measurements with booms reduced to 24 metres.
Balancing in Flatland Conditions
An especially designed balancing system for flatland conditions is available for HSS spray booms from 32-40 metres. This system does not require any electronic boom guidance in flatland areas. The advantage is a perfect boom guidance at higher speed and a total respect of the optimal nozzle distance to the crop, which result in highest efficiency of the application and reducing drift to a minimum level.
Storage Locker
A storage locker is integrated on the left hand side behind the door allowing you to keep your safety and cleaning equipment or tools with you on the sprayer. An additional storage locker is available for the right hand side to create even more storage place.
Easy Accessible Filters
The transparant filter bowl provides direct view on the dirt degree of the suction filter without dismounting. A valve at the bottom allows emptying the filter content before removing the bowl to avoid contamination of the hands with chemicals. The self cleaning pressure filter prevents blocking via a continuous flow keeping the filter mesh clean. The undissolved particles are returned into the tank until they are completely dispersed.
Chemical Inductor
The chemical inductor is an integrated part of the tank design. It is located next to the valve panel for easy access. Equipped with a circular rinsing system and waterproof cover, it can be rinsed safely with closed cover. Big quantities of powder and difficult mixtures are injected without any problems within seconds!
Clean Water Tank
The clean water tank is equipped with a level indicator. It can be filled via the opening on the clean water tank. It contains sufficient clean water for thorough cleaning with the several iXclean functions.
Filling via the Suction hose
External aspirate water is filtered first by the filter on the hose and then by the suction filter. In parallel you can already use the chemical inductor to add and premix chemicals.
Hand Wash Tap
You can wash your hands via the hand wash tap which is centrally located on the valve panel.
External Washing
A cleaning kit with a 15 metre hose and a brush, can be connected to the pressure side of the pump. It is allowing precleaning of the sprayer in the field, using water from the clean water tank.
Dual Agitation System
The return flow agitation system keeps the mixture homogeneous during operation and can be easily switched off in case of foam risk or nearly empty tank. The powerful high pressure agitation with injector nozzles guarantees powerful mixing which can activate after filling or a long break.
The complete Kverneland HSS steel spray boom range comes as standard with 50cm nozzle spacing. Additional nozzle holders can be added to the boom now to create 25cm nozzle distance. The 25cm nozzles distance is required by legislation and confirmed as a low drift technology in a limited number of countries.
Improved crop coverage and reduced drift reduction
The 25 cm nozzle distance will improve the crop coverage and drift reduction, as it is possible to spray closer to the target area at 30cm spray height, by keeping an accurate distribution of spray liquid at the correct level with the correct droplet size.
Increase spray window
Easy switching from 50 to 25cm nozzle distance means more flexibility during spraying and it creates more time to spray in optimal conditions. In addition, the weather has less of an effect. It is easy to change from 50 to 25 cm nozzle distance or the other way around. The 25cm nozzle distance is an optional add on, on top of the standard 50cm nozzle distance for all spray line systems (central sections, iXflow-Air and iXflow-E). Even it is possible as retrofit.
Only spray when it is needed
Increase the environmental protection by only spray when it is needed with the new SpotSpray application within the iXspray software on the IsoMatch Tellus terminal in combination with the Kverneland sprayer !
Optimal Crop Protection
The SpotSpray application is based on a predefined prescription map with zero application rates. These prescription maps can be made in a similar way as the Variable Rate Application (VRA) prescription maps, in combination the SpotSpray application the sprayer shuts on and off. This is done based on the predefined sections in the control terminal and can even be done with normal section valves on the sprayer. Only designated spots are sprayed, which is particularly helpful when targeting weed spots, thistles, wet areas, non-germinated areas and areas with soil problems.
Another benefit is that based on the area of the spots in the VRA map, it is easy to see exactly how much spray liquid is required in the sprayer. Capacity is also increased as more hectares or fields can be covered with one tank of spray liquid.
With a relatively small investment in the SpotSpray license on the IsoMatch Tellus terminal, the return on investment is high, due to saving time and money. With this, spot spraying becomes accessible for all famers and contractors.
With SpotSpray costs can be saved by reducing the spray liquid to be used and preserve healthy crop from unnecessary treatment. This also means less crop damage.
iXflow-Pulse - Pulse Width Modulation system - creates the most effective agronomical spraying due to an optimal balance between droplet size, crop coverage and water use, also under changing conditions of speed or application rate.
Optimal droplet size for maximum efficiency
iXflow-Pulse is creating a flexible and fast adjustable opening and closing time of the nozzles. When driving faster the opening time will become longer. When driving slower the opening time gets shorter, but by using the iXflow-Pulse the right droplet size will be kept.
Stable spraying pressure
Precision spraying is all about the right spraying pressure in combination with the nozzle to get the right droplet size. iXflow-Pulse (Pulse Width Modulation) takes care of a stable spraying pressure over a wide speed range during variation in application rate. For example, during speed variation at start/stop on headlands, slowing down during turning or when driving and spraying up or down the hill. Another benefit is that the pressure and flow can be adjusted separately as well as during operation. One nozzle can be used for a wider range of applications, which means less changes of nozzles required, saving time and increasing efficiency. There is also the ability to use lower pressure with the same nozzle in challenging or windy conditions. iXflow-Pulse improves the coverage of the spray target in combination with a minimalisation of drift and evaporation.
iXcurve - even dosing in curves
When spraying in different field conditions, for example driving in curves or passing obstacles, the left and right boom has a different speed and this can cause overdosing or under dosing. With the feature called iXcurve, which is included in the iXflow-Pulse system, the modulating spray pulses by adapting the opening and closing time to compensate the speed difference, resulting in an evenly covered crop or surface with the right amount of spray liquid.
Next to the iXtrack T4, there is a model which is called iXtrack T4 Essential.
The Essential models are based on the most essential specifications and options, which a modern up to date trailed sprayer must have nowadays. Especially for the medium market segment of arable farms and mixed farms.
Ease of use
The iXtrack T4 Essential will have the innovative iXspray hardware and software with intuitive touch interface guarantees and user friendly operation of the sprayer. The iXtrack T4 is standard equipped with the ErgoDrive functionality and has manual valves (iXclean Comfort as an option).
Stability
Like the iXtrack T4 is the iXtrack T4 Essential model equipped with a smooth, suspended parallelogram that is active in spraying position, but also during transport for optimal boom stability. The parallelogram combines optimal stability with soft boom balancing and limited vertical movement to minimise spray height deviations, securing correct crop coverage.
Intelligent Electronics
The iXtrack T4 Essential is fully ISOBUS compatible. It means easy plug and play with the IsoMatch Tellus GO+ or PRO or any other AEF certified (tractor) terminal as an option.
