WM-FieldForm

The new Level of Landforming is here with the launch of WM-FieldForm.

Take control of landforming, maintenance, and repair on your farm with WM-FieldForm. Designed for single-scraper landforming, it makes planning and execution easier than ever before. With advanced tools like the Precision-IQ™ field application, GFX-1260™ display, and NAV-900 guidance controller, WM-FieldForm equips your farm with powerful capabilities to streamline your landforming processes, ensuring unmatched accuracy and efficiency. Take your farming to the next level.

The WM-FieldForm solution introduces single scraper control for complex landforming, grading, leveling, and terracing projects, all integrated into the powerful Precision-IQ™ field application. This marks a significant milestone as it brings these advanced capabilities to your fingertips, providing enhanced control over water movement across your fields.

Equipped with the robust GFX-1260™ display and NAV-900 guidance controller, combined with machine control hardware and an additional receiver, this system ensures unparalleled accuracy. With PTx Trimble’s WM-FieldForm, farmers can now precisely manage the flow of water into, off, and across their fields, improving water efficiency and ensuring optimal land use.

Whether you are managing large-scale irrigation systems or tackling challenging landforming tasks, the WM-FieldForm solution provides the tools you need to take your farm’s water management capabilities to the next level. Trust Vantage Australia and PTx Trimble for the latest in precision technology that delivers results.

  • How It Works

    WM-FieldForm is designed to simplify each step of the landforming process, from surveying and design to execution and verification.

  • Surveying and Design

    The process begins with creating a topographic survey of the field using RTK measurements. Farmers will define boundaries, interior points, and calculate the true acreage of the surveyed area.

    Once the survey data is collected, it is imported into the WM-Form design software. This powerful tool allows farmers to create optimised field surface drainage designs by defining primary and cross slopes, prescribed orientations, and preferred grades to meet more complex field requirements. The software also incorporates advanced dirt-balancing algorithms to minimise topsoil disturbance, ensuring a more sustainable and efficient landforming process. The streamlined workflows are designed to be easy to follow and quick to learn.

  • Hardware and Software Requirements

    To fully utilise the WM-FieldForm system, farmers will need the Precision-IQ™ field application on PTx Trimble’s GFX-1260™ in-cab display, which provides powerful visualisation and auto-design features. A tractor equipped with the NAV-900 guidance controller is also required for GNSS accuracy. Additionally, an RTK base station is necessary to achieve 2.5 cm vertical accuracy for precise landforming operations.

  • Availability

    The WM-FieldForm water management system is now available for order. For more information or to place an order call us on 1800 482 682.

Key Benefits

  • Boost crop yields up to 30% in the first year
  • Single scraper system capable of complex landforming, grading, leveling and terracing
  • Greatly improved uptime and excellent accuracy from the NAV-900 receiver
  • Faster design processing and quick machine control reaction times
  • Intuitive workflows for simplified design, execution and verification
  • Conduct your own landforming, maintenance and repair
  • Save on irrigation costs and on the diesel fuel needed to run pumps by reducing total water need

This cutting-edge system simplifies every step of the landforming process, including design, execution, and verification. Whether you’re an experienced FieldLevel II™ user or new to water management, WM-FieldForm is designed to help you enhance productivity, with the potential to improve crop yields by up to 30% in the first year.

Streamlined Design and Execution
With WM-FieldForm, farmers can access improved visualisations, intuitive workflows, and enhanced features to streamline their operations. The system offers in-display Simple Plane and AutoPlane designs, as well as the ability to import surveys and multi-plane designs. Whether using manual guidance or autoguidance, the entire process is at your fingertips, making it easier to plan, execute, and verify landforming work.

Cost-Effective Solution for Existing Trimble Customers
For current PTx Trimble customers, there’s added value. You can save on total system costs by using the GFX display and NAV-900 guidance controller already installed on your tractor. Many existing cables and harnesses can also be reused with WM-FieldForm, making it a cost-effective solution for anyone already using Trimble’s precision technology.

Empowerment and Flexibility for Farmers
The intuitive system empowers farmers to form their own fields, or easily maintain and repair any previous dirt work done by a contractor. Drawing on over 50 years of experience delivering high-quality water management products, WM-FieldForm integrates industry-leading dirt balancing algorithms to minimise topsoil disturbance. It also offers top-of-the-line GNSS positioning accuracy and reliability, all while providing straightforward workflows that are quick to learn and follow.

Improved Land Grading for Better Yields
Properly graded land is key to increasing yield by smoothing out high and low spots that can inhibit crop growth. It also reduces wear and tear on farm vehicles and implements used throughout the year. In high-precipitation areas, WM-FieldForm can help reduce soil erosion, limit nutrient runoff, and prevent yield loss from ponding. In drier climates, it helps make the most of limited water resources by reducing moisture runoff and keeping valuable irrigation water on the field where it’s needed most.

With WM-FieldForm, farmers have the tools to take full control of their landforming needs, leading to better yields, efficient water management, and long-term farm sustainability. Trust Vantage Australia and PTx Trimble to provide the most advanced solutions for your agricultural challenges.
