SOWING HEART

PRECISE SINGULATION

The peripheral speed of the seed disc corresponds exactly to the forward speed of the machine. The counter-clockwise rotation of the disc opposite to the driving direction eliminates seed bounce or roll. A low drop height, precise singulation of all pelleted seeds and parallelogram guided sowing row ensuress best seed placement. WITH ZERO SPEED EFFECT

Lowest standard deviation = High seed placement + Best plant distribution

Specially moulded seed cells around the edge of the seed disc pick up individual pellets from the seed chamber ,with any surplus pellets falling back into the second seed chamber. With the rotation of the seed disc the seeds are transported downwards to the coulter. With a low dropping height the seeds fall in the furrow made by the seed coulter. The cell distance of the disc is the same as the seed distance in the furrow.

The seed falls down nearly vertically .

The peripheral speed of the seed disc matches exactly the forward working speed of the machine (zero speed effect). This eliminates seed bounce or roll in the furrow and enables high forward speeds to maximise the work rate. The opto-electronic sensor controls the correct allocation of seeds on the disc. In case of missing seeds, the sensor transfers a signal to the terminal. The opto-electronic sensor also serves as a low level sensor. The spring protected emptying flap at the lowest point of the seeding heart enables a complete and easy emtpying and cleaning of the seeding heart.T
