A screw conveyor for seeds is a device used to transfer seeds or other small bulk materials from one place to another. It is used in agriculture and other industries where it is necessary to efficiently transport seeds for sowing, transshipment or other purposes.
The application of the conveyor auger for seeds consists in the following operations: (//tractor-service.com)
Seed delivery: The auger transports the seed from the loading point to the spreading point. The seed is drawn into the interior of the auger by means of a screw blade that moves along the pipeline. This process ensures an even supply of seeds without loss or damage.
Seed distribution: When the seed distribution point is reached, the seed exits the auger and is distributed evenly over the seeded area. This can happen with the help of special taps or scattering devices that regulate the flow of seeds and their location.
Seed lifting: In some cases, the auger conveyor can be used to lift the seed to a height, for example for loading into silo towers or on elevated platforms. This allows you to conveniently and efficiently move seeds above ground level.
