Tech Chat | How can SAgro100 be compatible with most tractors? – Importance of Spline Sleeves


How is the SAgro100 autosteer system compatible with most tractor models? This is the point that most users will care about. The key to this is the spline sleeves with different heights, number of spline teeth and diameters, which is essential to make sure your autosteer kit works properly.

In today's blog, we will introduce how spline sleeves work and how to select a suitable spline sleeve.

How do spline sleeves work?

First of all, we need to know what the spline is for. Splines are parts that transmit mechanical torque. Every tractor has a steering shaft to control the direction of motion. The surface of the steering shaft usually has longitudinal keyway, and the spline sleeve has corresponding keyway. When the two keyways fit together, the spline can drive the steering shaft to keep rotating synchronously.

   

In the SAgro100 system, the spline is installed between the electric motor and the steering shaft of the tractor. When the motor rotates, it will drive the spline to rotate, thereby driving the steering shaft of the tractor to rotate, so as to control the steering of the tractor.

How to select a suitable spline sleeve?

Knowing what a spline does, we can see that the key to choosing the right spline is getting the spline to fit your tractor steering shaft.

Count how many grooves your tractor steering shaft has and measure its diameter, then select a spline with the appropriate number of teeth and diameter.

What does SingularXYZ provide?

To fit the mainstream tractor models in the market, SingularXYZ team provides commonly used splines as follows for you to choose.

If your vehicle is not included in the table below, we can also customize a new spline based on the number of teeth and diameter of your tractor steering shaft.
