Some of the key functions of the Wheel Speed Sensor in a cotton picker include:
1. Speed monitoring: The sensor measures the rotational speed of the wheels, allowing the control system to calculate the speed of the cotton picker adjust the engine, transmission, or other components accordingly.
2. Traction control: The Wheel Speed Sensor helps in traction control by monitoring the speed of individual wheels. This data is used by the control system to detect wheel slippage and adjust power delivery or braking to maintain traction on different terrains.
3. Stability control: The sensor also plays a role in stability control systems by monitoring wheel speeds and providing data for adjusting steering, braking, and power delivery to enhance stability and safety while operating the cotton picker.
