SpeedTube
Most planting seasons have weather challenges that make it difficult to plant all your fields in ideal conditions. SpeedTube is a seed delivery system that allows you to double your planting speed without sacrificing performance. You’ll have a sense of accomplishment when the rain comes and your planter is already back in the shed.
A Complete High-Speed System
SpeedTube is one component of the high-speed planting system from Precision Planting. Row by row downforce control, accurate metering and drive, row cleaner control, and a fertilizer rate control that doesn't compromise accuracy over changing speeds all are part of a system that ensures that as speed increases, accuracy remains the same. High-Speed planting is not just a delivery system, it is a complete package.
Details
SpeedTube combines with other systems from Precision Planting as part of a high-speed planting system that ensures that as you speed up, yield potential is not going down. SpeedTube uses two feeder wheels to pull seeds off of the vSet disk, into a flighted belt, and into the seed trench. The seeds don't bounce in the tube because they are under control, and they also don't tumble in the furrow because the seed release is matched to ground speed. The result is properly spaced seeds, and more acres covered in the ideal planting window.
