Screw Dosing Device for Solid Mineral Fertilizers

Abstract

The designs of dosing systems used in precision farming technologies are considered, their advantages and disadvantages are identified. On the basis of the analysis carried out, the design of a screw dosing device for centrifugal distributors of solid mineral fertilizers, cultivators-feeders, and seeders of seeders is proposed. Theoretical substantiations of the performance of this device are carried out, the main modes of its operation are determined.
