Time laps photo

This time lapse photo shows how seeds slow down when they make contact with the seed tube. In the photo at right, the seed has hit the sensor and the strobe light exposes its winding path down the tube. That seed spends .11 seconds in the seed tube which tanslates to 11 inches from the previous seed. The seed on the left has a direct path to the seed trench and only spends .07 seconds in the seed tube, and is the correct distance from the previous seed - seven inches.

The BullsEye Seed Tube gives seeds the most direct path to the seed trench. The smooth interior and recessed sensor eye eliminates any interference that can slow the seed’s descent.

In other seed tubes, the sensor can interfere sending the seed into gyrations that slow it causing gaps and misplaced seeds. The BullsEye Seed Tube moves the sensor eye behind a ledge that makes it impossible for the seed to nick the sensor. It is a straight shot to the trench.

To extend wear life, we’ve imbedded tungsten carbide into the bottom of the tube.

This eliminates the wear that causes the small poly dog-ear that normally appears on the left side of the tube. The tungsten keeps the double disk opener from wearing against the side of the tube.

Special Alert for Finger Meter Owners

Kinze and John Deere 7000 seed tubes are especially prone to sensor eye interference. If you own one of these planters, take a hard look at the improvements you can make by switching to BullsEye Seed Tubes.
