Seed conditioning and de-dusting system for lab use

When treating seeds, achieving precise de-dusting and curing is crucial for coating effectiveness and flow. This small-scale lab solution helps fine-tune your process for optimal performance in larger production lines.

Conditions, De-dusts, and Cures Seed Coatings

The RFBC140-LAB Rotary Fluid Bed Conditioner from Hoopman Equipment & Engineering is designed to enhance seed processing by integrating conditioning, de-dusting, and curing operations in a single, efficient system. It employs a fluidized bed principle, utilizing ambient air to ensure uniform treatment of seeds, ideal for developing treatment protocols on a lab scale.

This equipment is instrumental for seed producers and agricultural research institutions aiming to improve the adhesion and flow characteristics of crop coatings. Capable of processing between 50 to 150 kg per hour, depending on conditioning time, the RFBC140-LAB seamlessly integrates with existing treatment systems, ensuring enhanced product uniformity and reduced contamination risk.

Engineered for small-scale operations, the RFBC140-LAB is perfect for pilot and laboratory environments, offering adaptable integration with your current film-coating systems. The conditioner facilitates energy efficiency and consistent product quality, enabling better control over seed treatment processes, thus meeting the needs of modern agricultural and seed treatment industries.
