The Drum is the heart of the seeder unit.
- Seed pins
extend through the drum skin and push the seed off at the
exact moment that it is to enter the ground.
- The pins
also clean the holes every drum revolution so that the seeds
are distributed consistently and evenly.

The
computer that controls the seeder is an industrial quality,
all-weather, heavy-duty device that senses the tractor speed and
the drum turn rate and adjusts this relationship to control the
spacing of the seeds. |
