TEGOSEM – For more components in the mixture

Additional components in the mixture

With the TEGOSEM 500 flexible hopper additional components can to be added to the mixture sown using the TERRASEM series. Space-saving, easily accessible using the loading platform, mounted in front of the seed hopper, the pneumatic sowing unit covers a wide range of applications.

  • Companion crop (such as grass) sown at the same time as drilled crop

  • Fertiliser or micro granules can be applied directly by the metering system as contact banding in a single shoot process

Advantages of the TEGOSEM flexible hopper

  • Seed distribution is carried out pneumatically by surface application or directly by the TERRASEM metering unit into the seed coulter.

  • On top of applying seed and fertiliser using the seed and fertiliser coulters, TEGOSEM can be used to apply a further component.


1 Hydraulic fan drive system and metering system

  • Fan speed is adjusted using a flow control valve and hydraulic pressure

  • Perfect match of fan speed to each seed type

  • Two different metering shafts installed as standard to allow the sowing of large and small seeds.


2 Seed flow

The distributor is set either to distribute on the soil surface using the baffle plate, or contact banding using the single shoot process

Distributor flap on each side

Easy to switch flow direction from the side


3 Distributed by baffle plate

  • A baffle plate distributes seed material from eight outlets on the soil surface behind the tyre packer

  • Optimum distribution of the seed

  • Unaffected by crosswind due to distribution close to the ground


4 Sowing as contact fertiliser with single shoot process

  • Feeding the seed or fertiliser as contact banding directly into the TERRASEM seed stream using a diversion in the metering unit

  • Optimum placement when depositing two components using the seed coulters

  • Seeds cannot segregate inside the hopper
