A disc seeder is one of the most common types of seeders used in modern agriculture. This type of seed drill allows you to sow seeds of different crops on different types of soil, providing high productivity and saving resources. However, not all disk seeders are equally efficient and reliable. In this review, we will consider the pneumatic precision seeder Cansa C-900-8G, which is a novelty on the Ukrainian market and has many advantages over other models.

What is a pneumatic precision seeder?

A pneumatic precision seeder is a seeder that uses airflow to transport seeds from the hopper to the coulters. This system distributes the seeds evenly over the entire field, ensuring precise seeding and optimal planting density. The pneumatic seeder also has a seeding controller that adjusts the amount of seed delivered to the coulters depending on the speed of the seeder and the desired planting rate.

How does the Cansa C-900-8G pneumatic precision air seeder work?

The Cansa C-900-8G pneumatic precision air seeder is designed for planting cereals, legumes, oilseeds and other crops on plowed, cultivated or pre-treated soil. The system consists of the following main elements:

- The chassis is a frame that is connected to the tractor by a ball or loop hitch. The chassis has a hydraulic mount for adjusting the angle of attack of the discs and a hydraulic lowering for adjusting the working depth.

- The seed hopper is a container that contains seeds for sowing. The hopper has a volume of 30 liters and is divided into 8 sections, one for each row. The hopper has an opening for charging the seeds and a window for monitoring the seed level.

- The fertilizer hopper is a container that contains fertilizers for plant nutrition. The hopper has a volume of 190x4 liters and is divided into 8 sections, one for each row. The hopper has an opening for fertilizer charging and a window for monitoring the fertilizer level.

- An air compressor is a device that creates an air flow to transport seeds from the hopper to the coulters. The compressor is driven by the tractor PTO and has a speed of 540 rpm.

- The distribution unit is a device that distributes the seeds into 8 channels, one for each row. The distributor unit has valves that regulate the amount of seed that passes through each channel, depending on the settings of the seeding controller.

- The coulters are devices that form furrows for planting seeds and cover them with soil. The coulters consist of two pairs of discs: cutting discs, which cut through the soil cover, and fertilizing discs, which compress the soil around the seeds. The coulters have an individual overload protection system with a soft return, which reduces the load on the frame.

- The planting controller is an electronic device that provides accurate and efficient control of the planting process. The planting controller consists of a display that shows all the necessary information about the operation of the seeder and sensors that monitor the speed of the seeder, the angle of attack of the discs, the depth of processing, the amount of seed and fertilizer supplied to the coulters, as well as possible malfunctions.

What are the advantages of the Cansa C-900-8G pneumatic precision air seeder?

The Cansa C-900-8G pneumatic precision planter has many advantages over other models of disc type seeders. Here are some of them:

- High performance. The Cansa C-900-8G has a working width of 9 meters and can process up to 10 hectares per hour. This allows you to reduce the time and costs of sowing.

- Precise planting. The Cansa C-900-8G seed drill has a pneumatic seed transport system that ensures even distribution of seeds across the field. The seeding controller adjusts the amount of seed fed to the coulters depending on the speed of the seeder and the desired seeding rate. The seeding controller also displays all the necessary information about the operation of the seeder, as well as possible malfunctions.

- Versatility. The Cansa C-900-8G seeder can be used for planting various crops, such as wheat, corn, soybeans, sunflower, peas and others. The seeder has interchangeable discs for adjusting the row spacing from 45 to 75 cm. The seeder also has a fertilizer hopper that allows you to fertilize plants simultaneously with sowing.

- Reliability. The Cana C-900-8G seeder has a strong frame and quality components that ensure a long service life. The coulters are equipped with an individual overload protection system that prevents damage in the event of an obstacle. The rollers have stable bearings that do not require frequent maintenance.
