XCheck – AI-supported field tests for maximum precision in fertilisation
One photo is all it takes: with XCheck and the new AI function in the RAUCH app, evaluating spreader tests has never been easier, faster or more precise. Intelligent image analysis automatically evaluates the lateral distribution of the fertiliser and immediately provides the optimum machine settings for precise fertiliser application.
It couldn't be easier – optimise your fertiliser
control settings with just one photo
Even lateral distribution is crucial for precise fertilisation and high yields. In practice, however, spreader pan tests are time-consuming, complex to evaluate and prone to errors.
XCheck and the AI-based extension of the RAUCHApp simplify this process significantly. Instead of numerous individual photos, a single photo of the measuring funnel is sufficient to automatically evaluate the cross-distribution and calculate the optimal settings for the fertiliser spreader.
XCheck is the ideal tool for greater precision for all RAUCH twin-disc spreaders: MDS, AXIS and AXENT.
How XCheck works in practice
From measurement to optimal spreader setting in just a few minutes
The application combines intelligent software with specially developed XCheck spreader pans and modern image processing.
The process:
- Lay out the spreader pans in the field
- Perform a fertiliser spreader test run
- Take a photo of the measuring funnel
- Automatic AI evaluation of cross-distribution
- Direct calculation of application point and disc speed
- Transfer the recommendation to the fertiliser spreader via Wi-Fi
The entire process is reduced from over 15 minutes to less than 7 minutes, with greater accuracy and significantly less effort.
The AI function of the RAUCHApp
Intelligent image analysis for accurate fertiliser charts
The integrated AI automatically and objectively analyses the captured image. This allows the cross-distribution of the fertiliser to be precisely evaluated and the optimum machine settings to be calculated – including the application point and disc speed.
The result:
- Objective evaluation instead of manual interpretation
- Greater accuracy in spreading settings
- Significantly reduced sources of error in the spreading test
A single click replaces numerous individual steps and greatly simplifies the calibration of the fertiliser spreader.
XCheck spreading trays – the basis for precise measurement results
Innovative spreading trays for accurate cross-distribution tests
At the heart of the system are the newly developed XCheck spreading trays with origami folding technology. They are specially designed for precise cross-distribution measurements and offer significant advantages over conventional testing systems.
Your advantages:
- Over 95% of fertiliser granules are reliably detected
- Significantly more accurate measurement of the actual cross-distribution
- Compact carrying case with low transport volume
- Total weight of only 9.6 kg
- Quick assembly and disassembly in the field
The flexible trays reduce sources of error and enable reproducible and practical test results.
Your advantages in practice
Greater precision, less effort, lower fertiliser use
XCheck has been consistently developed for practical agricultural use and offers clear economic and ecological advantages:
- Compact dimensions – fits in any tractor cab
- Significantly simplified spreading tests thanks to AI evaluation
- Time savings when calibrating the fertiliser spreader
- More precise fertiliser charts and machine settings
- Reduced fertiliser consumption through more accurate application
- Resource-saving and sustainable agriculture
Optimised settings can reduce fertiliser use by up to three per cent, which saves costs and conserves resources and the environment.
Digital solution for resource-efficient fertilisation
With XCheck, RAUCH combines modern AI technology with practical application in the field. More precise settings lead to less over- or under-fertilisation and at the same time contribute to climate protection through reduced consumption of operating resources.
The intuitive operation also ensures that cross-distribution tests are carried out more frequently and consistently – a decisive factor for uniform crops and stable yields.
Integration into the RAUCH Smart Farming System
XCheck is fully integrated into the RAUCH app and complements RAUCH's digital smart farming solutions in the field of precision fertilisation. Automatic evaluation and direct transfer of settings to the fertiliser spreader enable a continuous digital workflow from measurement to optimal application.

Frequently asked questions about XCheck and the RAUCHApp
What is XCheck?
XCheck is an AI-supported system for checking the lateral distribution of fertiliser spreaders. It combines specially developed spreading pans with the RAUCHApp, which automatically analyses the lateral distribution of the fertiliser using photos and calculates the optimum machine settings, such as the application point and disc speed.
This makes the classic spreader pan test much simpler, faster and more precise, allowing fertiliser spreaders to be set efficiently in the field and reducing spreading errors.
How does the AI evaluation of the fertiliser charts work?
The app analyses a photo of the measuring funnel using AI-supported image processing, evaluates the cross-distribution and automatically determines the application point and disc speed.
What advantages does XCheck offer over classic spread tests?
XCheck significantly reduces the amount of work involved, increases measurement accuracy, saves time and minimises sources of error when adjusting the fertiliser spreader.
How long does a spreader test with XCheck take?
The entire process can be completed in less than 7 minutes, making it significantly faster than conventional methods.
Is XCheck part of the RAUCHApp?
Yes, the AI function for evaluating spread tests is integrated directly into the RAUCHApp and enables digital and automated optimisation of spread settings.
Who is XCheck particularly suitable for?
XCheck is ideal for farmers, contractors and professional users who want to precisely adjust their fertiliser application, save fertiliser and reduce time in their daily work.
