Topcon is a Japanese technology group established in 1932 and active in agriculture, infrastructure and healthcare. Agriculture is one of several businesses within the wider group. Its agricultural portfolio covers machine guidance and auto-steering, displays, implement control, Digi-Star weighing and feed management, and data management through the Topcon Agriculture Platform, known as TAP.
On a farm, guidance and auto-steering keep a tractor on accurate lines, cutting overlaps and operator fatigue, while section and rate control switch and vary sprayer or spreader output as the machine crosses the field. Digi-Star indicators and load cells weigh feed mixers, loaders and harvest carts, and TAP brings the resulting operational data together in one place. Because these systems work across different machines, compatibility between the display, controllers and the specific tractor or implement matters a great deal.
Size of the business
Topcon's agricultural business operates internationally as one part of a larger group, so group revenue also includes infrastructure and healthcare.
What does the company offer?
Topcon offers guidance and auto-steering, displays, section and rate control, the TAP data platform, and weighing and feeding systems.
