5.15 Metering
The hopper is equipped with one or two
chambers.
There is 1 metering unit under each chamber.
The material is metered by a metering roller in
the metering unit (Fig. 101/1). The metering roller
can be replaced.
Fig. 101
The metering roller is driven by an electric motor
(Fig. 102/1).
The metered material falls into an injector or a
sluice (Fig. 102/2) and is directed by the air
current to the distributor head and then on to the
coulters.
As soon as the coulters are raised when turning
at the end of a field or when the implement
comes to a stop, the electric motor switches off
and the metering roller comes to a halt.

The speed of the metering roller
 is determined when calibrating the spread rate.
 determines the spread rate.
The higher the speed of the electric motor, the greater the spread rate.
 automatically adjusts to changing working speeds.
The working speed is determined, e.g. by pulses from the radar or the tractor signal.
 can be increased during operation, e.g. when changing from normal to heavy soils, by pressing
a button on the control terminal in defined quantity increments.
