How to improve the Seed Counting efficiency during the Agricultural work?
With the accumulation of agricultural experiences and the development of counting machines, more and more machines are widely put into use for seed counting. The seed counter is one of those machines and can bring you a more efficient experience. It also helps you count and pack your seeds into sachets and pouches.
What Is The Seed Counter?
Seed counter combines seed counting and seed packaging that can offer you high speed and high precision for your seed packaging. Seed counters provide the accurate and fast counting and bagging of seeds. Generally, the seed counter is suitable for the packaging of prefabricated bags such as seed bags. This machine can not only count grains but also has the function of weighing. It can provide you with weighing and counting seeds at the same time.
What are the applications of the seed counter in the agri-food sector?
Seed counters are widely used in different industries, including:
Agricultural Industry
Seed counters are widely used in the agricultural industry for various seeds and raw materials, such as wheat, barley, corn, sunflower, soya, etc., counting and packaging.
Food Supplement Industry
Seed counters are widely used in the food supplement industry for various food supplements such as vitamin pills, fish oil capsules, mineral substances, honey-related food supplement pills, etc., counting and packaging into pouches and bags.
Other examples of industries that seed counters could be used are the Pharmaceutical, Manufacturing and Electronics Industries.
What Products Are Mainly Applied By Seed Counter?
Various products are mainly applied by seed counters:
Seeds
Due to the lightweight and small size of the seeds. Therefore, the seed counter is able to provide accurate and fast counting and packaging for a wide variety of seeds. Different seeds have different volumes. The seed counter can not only solve the counting and packaging of larger seeds such as beans, soybeans, and sunflower seeds but is also applicable to smaller seeds such as sesames.
Nuts
Seed counters are widely applied in counting and packaging nuts such as peanuts, cashews, almonds, pine nuts, etc. into premade pouches with high efficiency and precision.
Seed Weighing Or Seed Counting?
Why do more industries prefer seed counting and packaging more than seed weighing and packaging?
The difference between seed counting packaging and seed weighing packaging:
Seed counting packaging is a process of completing packaging by counting the number of seeds. When seeds pass through the sensor or photoelectric element, the seed counter will automatically complete the product counting and pack according to the preset quantity.
Seed weighing packaging is the process of weighing the seeds and then packing them according to the preset product weight. This requires a weighing packaging machine. Weighing and packaging machines are generally equipped with high-precision electronic scales to accurately measure the produced film’s weight.
Why Choose Seed Counting?
– Seed Shape Consistency
Generally, seeds of the same type are almost similar in size, and there are few seeds in different shapes. The quality of the seed is light, and the volume is very small. Therefore, seeds are very suitable for counting packaging but not for weighing packaging. Weighing packaging is more suitable for products in different sizes and shapes, such as food, cosmetics, etc.
– Reduce Product Waste
Seed counting can greatly reduce the waste of seeds. In the process of counting seeds, there is no loss and waste except for the impurities and dust removed. Seed weighing and packaging cannot strictly control the weight of the products, which will cause overcompensation. This will cause a loss to the enterprise.
– Saving Space
Seed counting equipment generally has a simple design and a small footprint, which can greatly save the floor space of the manufacturer’s production facilities. Seed-weighing equipment is generally designed to be relatively large. Standard weighing equipment is designed for multi-heads. Such equipment takes up a lot of space and is not conducive to the cleaning and maintenance of the machine.
Conclusion:
The seed counter can be a valuable tool in agricultural businesses and producers, helping in the fastest counting of seeds and the high throughout with a wide counting diameter range.
