Main Features of DECOP-T Seed Test Sowing Head (Test Seeder)
- High-Precision Seed Selection
Seed selection takes place prior to sowing, allowing simple and quick adjustment for different seed types. This ensures maximum sowing accuracy across a wide variety of seed calibers and shapes.
- Maximum Versatility
The DECOP-T seeding head can handle small seed quantities in any tray format. It supports flexible sowing modes — row by row, grouped rows, or half-tray configurations — and can combine different seed types in the same tray, ideal for seed trials and comparative research.
- Easy Setup and Operation
Changing seeds is fast and tool-free, with no need for mechanical calibration of the plates. A mini vacuum unit recovers leftover seeds, while compressed air pulses automatically clean the nozzles after each cycle to prevent clogging and ensure continuous performance.
Integration and Adaptability
The DECOP-T can be integrated into any existing sowing line, saving time and enhancing flexibility in research workflows.
Its design allows seed or tray changes in under five minutes, with a test cycle available to verify precision and correct seed centering in each cell. This guarantees uniform sowing and optimal seedling quality.
Ideal for Small-Scale Seed Trials (Test Seeder)
The DECOP-T is the perfect choice for sowing small batches or rare seed lots in experimental setups.
It is compatible with a broad range of seed calibers — from very fine seeds like petunia, to large or irregular ones such as pine (Pinus pinea) and tagetes.
Optional multi-group and multi-sowing configurations offer enhanced efficiency and flexibility for complex test designs.
