Sensor counts more seeds at higher speeds
AccuCount Planter Seed Counting Sensor offers accurate population counts for soybean growers at increased seed populations and planting speeds. The new sensor is compatible with existing planter monitors. This allows customers to obtain a new level of performance by only purchasing the sensor. Previously existing seed-counting sensors can undercount soybean population rates at average population rates and average planting speeds. Performance of these sensors would degrade as planting speeds increased. The AccuCount sensor is able to count accurately at populations three times the current average populations. The sensor achieves this by integrating a microprocessor to condition the existing signal, allowing the current planter monitors to count using the same signal as prior seed-counting sensors. As seed costs continue to increase, growers can plant close to the desired population to maximize profitability.
