Seed conditioning and de-dusting system for lab use
In seed treatment processes, managing dust and ensuring thorough conditioning are critical to meeting regulatory standards and optimizing seed performance. This is especially significant as crop protection products face stringent registration requirements due to environmental concerns, such as bee-related pesticide incidents.
Condition and de-dust treated seeds in lab settings
The RFBC140-LAB from Hoopman Equipment is a compact seed conditioner designed for lab-scale conditioning and de-dusting applications. With a capacity range of 50 to 150 kg/hr, it operates on the fluidized bed principle, utilizing ambient air to effectively remove dust and cure the seed coating layer. This conditioner ensures repeatable and controllable results, making it ideal for developing protocols for larger seed treatment systems. The RFBC140-LAB provides a solution to current issues in seed treatment by enhancing the adhesion and flow characteristics of the seed coating, while also being compatible with existing film-coating and seed treatment systems. It is particularly useful in research and development settings to refine and optimize seed treatment processes before scaling up.
