Description
PinPoint II utilizes Blended Pulse PWM with individual nozzle control. Real-time system feedback is viewed and controlled through the CapView II interactive display. Controlled flow and pressure at the nozzle in conjunction with individual nozzle boundary control, provides accurate and repeatable application to achieve the desired coverage. Speed up, slow down, turn, overlap or any combination of those variables will not affect the consistency built into this system.
