Kinze Brush-Type Seed Metering System

The very definition of precision seed metering

The Brush-Type Seed Meter delivers accurate mechanical seed metering, without the need for adjustments to compensate for seed size variations.

The Kinze® Brush-Type Seed Meter

Features a die cast, anodized aluminum housing and a system of brushes that fill and gently retain seeds. The seeds are individually collected in specially formed pockets along the perimeter of a precision-molded seed disc. As the disc rotates vertically within the housing, seeds are picked up by the seed pocket and retained by the brushes. When they reach a point immediately above the seed tube, they are released to drop gently through the tube into the seed trench.

Want to Save Money?

Reduce Seed Waste.Over-planting soybeans with a drill can be very costly, especially if you’re planting today’s more expensive genetically engineered seeds with older mechanical metering systems. For example, compare the Kinze Planter (with Kinze Brush-Type Seed Metering and Interplant Systems) to a grain drill with traditional mechanical metering. When planting Roundup Ready® soybeans, you can save a considerable amount of money per acre simply by lowering the seeding rate (to 180,000 seeds per acre, from 240,000) and improving stands to achieve comparable yield performance.Run the numbers on your operation. The Kinze Brush-Type Seed Meter can save you hundreds, even thousands of dollars each planting season.

An Extremely Low-Maintenance System

  • Just one moving part.
  • No need to adjust for different seed sizes.
  • Easy to clean.
  • Simple to maintain.
  • Long-life, low-cost brushes are replaceable in seconds.
  • Two wing nuts secure the disc to the meter.

Plant a Wider Variety of Crops

The Kinze Brush-Type Seed Meter is capable of planting soybeans, milo/grain sorghum and cotton.

Color-coded seed discs are molded from the latest engineering-grade urethanes; they’re also long-lasting and resist seed treatment buildup. Custom-designed seed cells assist seed fill by effectively agitating the seed to improve performance.
