1
Seed moves from the XP Meter™ Reservoir to the base of the meter and forms a seed pool.
2
The positive air pressure of the XP Meter™ allows the rotating seed plate to ‘pick-up’ seed from the seed pool within the vented area of the meter.
3
The Singulator
A singulator "nudges" the seeds attached to the plate to remove doubles and set the seed properly on the hole.
4
Seed exits the vented area through the extractor port and is entrained into the seedtube air stream, for placement in the soil by the opener.
5
Seed Sensor
A seed sensor counts each seed as it travels by. The signal is fed to the planter controller to confirm accurate singulation during operation.
6
Ejector Wheel
The ejector wheel cleans the holes before re-entering the seed pool.
