Since its introduction in 2014, the Kinze Vacuum Meter has consistently demonstrated superior singulation and seed drop for 99%+ accuracy at speeds up to 8 mph*. Here are some of the reasons why.
Very Well Suited for a Variety of Conditions
- Uniform to irregular seed
- Many different types of seeds
- Low to high population rates
- Easy and quick switchovers
- Higher planting speeds
- Designed to prevent downtime
Seed Disc
- Promotes uniform loading of seed cells
- Has a smaller diameter and more seed cells for lower seed velocity
- Features an unobstructed, raised release point
- Provides a low Coefficient of Variation (COV)
Coefficient of Variation (COV) is the measurement of how well a meter is releasing seed and the variation of seed spacing that results. For more information, read our blog about COV.
