Guidance & Steering
Integrated guidance and steering systems that keep your equipment on line, reduce input waste, and deliver consistent, accurate performance across every operation.
Precision Spraying Technologies for Australian Farms
Guidance and steering technology is the foundation of modern precision agriculture. This range covers the systems that put equipment on line and keep it there: in-cab displays that monitor and manage every field operation, automated and assisted steering systems that guide vehicles with repeatable accuracy, and positioning controllers and receivers that calculate where equipment is at all times.
Together, these systems reduce skips and overlaps, cut input waste, and allow operators to focus on the work around them rather than holding the wheel. They perform across every farming season and every vehicle type: planting, spraying, spreading, seeding, and harvest. They are designed to work together as an integrated system rather than a collection of standalone products.
Growers are increasingly adopting guidance and steering technology because the return is clear and measurable: more consistent fieldwork, lower input costs, reduced operator fatigue, and the ability to work longer hours in difficult conditions. Whether starting with a simple assisted steering system or building out a fully automated, data-connected operation, MCX Tech has a system to match.

How This Technology Fits Into MCX Solutions
Precision spraying systems support a wide range of crop protection operations across Australian farming systems.
From broadacre herbicide programs to targeted in-crop treatments, integrated technologies help growers apply inputs accurately and consistently across large and variable paddocks.
Crop Protection & Spraying
Large-scale spraying operations depend on accuracy and repeatability to maintain effective crop protection.
Integrated spraying systems help operators maintain consistent coverage across wide booms and long operating days while reducing overlap and operator workload.
This supports reliable application during:
- pre-emergent herbicide programs
- in-crop fungicide protection
- insecticide applications
- late-season disease management
Planting & Seeding
Not every paddock requires the same application rate across every hectare.
Precision crop protection systems allow growers to apply inputs based on:
- prescription maps
- crop condition zones
- weed pressure variability
- soil productivity zones
Targeted application improves input efficiency and helps reduce unnecessary chemical use in lower-risk areas.
Nutrient Management
Boom width and irregular paddock shapes often create overlap during headland turns or boundary passes.
Section and nozzle control technologies automatically manage application zones across the boom, ensuring accurate coverage and reducing double application.
This becomes particularly valuable for:
- irregular paddock layouts
- boundary spraying
- tapered headlands
- high-value crop protection products
Harvest
Advances in camera-based sensing systems allow sprayers to detect weeds in real time and apply herbicide only where it is needed.
This dramatically reduces chemical use during fallow spraying or targeted weed control programs.
Machine vision systems allow growers to maintain weed control while significantly lowering herbicide cost and environmental load.
