Valley Mechanical Corner vs Precision Corner Explained

There are two very different ways Valley corner systems have been built over the years, and understanding the difference matters more than most growers realize. In this video, we walk through how Valley’s mechanical corners evolved into today’s Precision Corner systems. We explain how the older track and roller and V-Flex corners sequence movement using start-and-stop cycles, and how the Precision Corner introduced continuous movement using variable frequency drives, smart tower boards, and span sensors. The result is smoother operation, fewer mechanical components, and built-in diagnostics that make troubleshooting faster and more accurate. If you farm in southern Minnesota, western Wisconsin, or Iowa and want to better understand your corner system or explore service or upgrade options, Apple Irrigation is always happy to help.
