We’ve taken thirty year old technology and made it the most accurate way to plant corn. By studying high speed video, we saw the ways standard finger meters create skips and doubles. Then we tweaked and re-engineered every component to eliminate those problems.
Every finger is tested to ensure that it fits the tight tolerances needed handle both round and flat seeds. Cams and springs are balanced for consistent tension that eliminates weak fingers or slow response. Backing plates are injection molded for “flatness”. Flatness means consistent tension so fingers grab and hold seeds.
We placed our high speed cameras inside a typical meter to give you a insight into some common meter problems.:
