People always ask me, what is the difference between an AgCam vs. CabCam camera, was it worth the money? We had an AgCam camera get knocked off a tree planter. This camera was buried 18″ underground after being run over by a 6,000-pound machine and being compressed in the soil at up to 3,000 psi. Not knowing exactly where it was lost, we were able to use a metal detector to find the camera two days later, after heavy rain. We used an air compressor to blow the dirt from around the connecting pins. We then plugged the camera in, and it works and looks as good as new, except for some cosmetic damage where the blades struck the sides.

General Manager of Operations Silver Silos Terminal – We installed an AgCam at our grain handling facility to help us identify any leakage from rail cars during loading operations. This camera has allowed us to reduce leakage to almost nil, almost eliminating the amount of workload required after the fact to clean up the spilled grain. At times during our loading, the lens can become totally covered with dust, and still, it gives us a perfect picture and lets us know exactly what is happening at ground level. The AgCam is truly an amazing piece of equipment, and we consider it to be the easiest way for us to reduce our day to day workload.

I do custom combining throughout the upper Midwest and got this AgCam system to watch behind my equipment when I was traveling down the highway, but I have found SO many other uses for it. I also have the wireless add on. So I can put a camera at the end of the combine auger and see the inside of the hopper. I am thinking of getting another monitor and receiving unit, and then my grain cart operator would be able to see the inside of the cart too. I have found a million uses for the system; I really like its versatility.
