Microcontroller system for control of the harvester's header propulsion with BLDC motor

The reduction of both pollution emissions and fossil fuel dependency has become an objective of energy policies worldwide. In the current research an electronic propulsion system to drive the harvester header with BLDC motor instead of by a hydraulic motor has been develop, on the base of the analysis and comparison of the existing propulsion systems. The electronic system has been practically realized, as both simulation and experimental investigations have been implemented.
