Typically integrated as additional applicators on drills and other planting machines, they can be specified with either single, double or triple outlets.
The Rotor Meter is commonly mounted to potato planters to deliver sulphur granules and slug pellets. Alternatively, on salad or vegetable crops micro-granular fertiliser is often applied after establishment.
On grain drills, the Rotor Meter relies on a Venturi system to feed product (seed, granular products) into the pneumatic distribution circuit of the drill.
As a stand-alone machine the Rotor Meter relies on gravity to spread product up to 1.5m. Several Rotor Meters can be fitted to host machines in series.
As a stand-alone machine the Rotor Meter Air Force has a spread width of up to 3.0m. (subject to product and application rate). The electric fan allows more flexibility in positioning the Rotor Meter Air Force on the host machine.
The Rotor Meter Air Force is frequently used for accurately spreading or effectively incorporating granular insecticides at narrow widths.
