  • Publication number: 20240393794
    Abstract: An agricultural vehicle including a control system to control slip of a tractive element. The control system includes processing circuitry configured to obtain an indication of a priority operating parameter from a plurality of operating parameters of the agricultural vehicle. The control system is configured to perform an adjustment to at least one non-priority operating parameter from the plurality of operating parameters of the agricultural vehicle when a first slip value of the tractive element exceeds a threshold. The control system configured to operate the agricultural vehicle according to the adjustment to the at least one non-priority operating parameter. The control system configured to perform an adjustment to the priority operating parameter upon a second slip value of the tractive element exceeding the threshold. The control system configured to operate the agricultural vehicle according to the adjustment to the priority operating parameter.

  • Patent number: 11920321
    Abstract: A system for automatically performing an earthmoving operation may include a work vehicle having an implement that is articulable by the work vehicle over a stroke length, a user interface, and a controller communicatively coupled to the user interface. The controller may be configured to receive an operator input via the user interface associated with performing an earthmoving operation with the implement of the work vehicle according to one of a plurality of earthmoving styles. Additionally, the controller may be configured to control the operation of the work vehicle to perform the earthmoving operation with the implement within the worksite based at least in part on the one of the plurality of earthmoving styles.
