SOWING HEART
SEEDING HEART - THE CORE OF SUCCESS
PRECISE METERING AND PLACEMENT
The seeding heart is made of cast aluminium and guarantees highly accurate seed placement thanks to its sophisticated technological design. Individual seeds are sucked on to the holes in the seed discs by a vacuum and proceed via the rotating disc to the ejection area, where the vacuum is interrupted and the seed is placed precisely in the soil. Thanks to the compact design of the Miniair Nova a minimised dropping height supports the exact placement. Surplus seed at the holes is removed with the help of adjustable singulators and returned to the seed flow. The feeding of seed from the 4 litre plastic seed hopper is regulated with the help of a baffle plate, so that the flow of surplus seeds back to the intake is guaranteed at all times. A rotary agitator at the seed flow prevents blockages and bridging, ensuring a consistent supply of seed to the seed disc. A small air jet clears the holes in the seed disc of any dust or seed residue to ensure perfect pick-up every time. The shape of the nozzle is patented. It is mounted on bellows and easy to change. The seeding heart is easy to open and can be fitted with all sorts of different seed discs. These can also be changed easily and without the need for tools thanks to the special seed disc mounting. A flap on the hopper makes it easy to empty it entirely, if needed. Alternatively, any leftover seeds can be removed by using the optional vacuum that is attached to the frame.
Reduced maintenance costs.
