SHANK PATROL

My name is Adam Bjerketvedt. I work with a company called Precision Ag 360. Our team developed a product called Shank Patrol, a monitoring system for the cab of any tillage equipment tractor... We created Shank Patrol because as soon as a shear bolt breaks, you start losing money. Shank Patrol is an alarm system that monitors the movement of each shank. As soon as a shank breaks, it moves, and as soon as it moves, our sensors pick it up. Our real-time, in-cab monitor lights up immediately, telling you which shank is broken, saving time and labor resources... Shank Patrol is a system that provides real-time monitoring of the movement of the shank on conventional tillage rippers, and any tillage or fertilizer system that has a shear-bolt-style shank or knife. As soon as a shank bolt breaks, sensors alert the operator via an in-cab monitor with a light and alarm. The system automatically resets after the broken bolt is replaced.
