The rotational speed sensor works by detecting the number of revolutions of the component it is monitoring within a certain time frame. This information is then transmitted to the control system of the cotton picker, where it can be used to adjust the speed of the machinery, optimize performance, ensure efficiency, and prevent overloading or malfunction of the equipment.

By accurately measuring and monitoring the rotational speed of key components, the rotational speed sensor plays a crucial role in maintaining the proper functioning, safety, and effectiveness of the cotton picker during harvesting operations. It helps operators and technicians to identify and address any issues related to speed variations, malfunctions.
