Abstract
The paper discusses technical aspects involved in developing seeding control systems for grain seeders and sowing machines. Construction and technological parameters of seeding control systems are based on the analysis of the available machinery. As a result an operation-performing unit was constructed and tested in field trials. The RatinalRose visual simulation environment was used to design the software of the seeding control system. The environment allowed for interpreting the volume concentration of particles. A procedure for collecting and presenting data was developed. COMPAS com106 puter program was used to create a 3D design of the sensor and measure its parameters, then the sensor case was made using a 3D printer. Field trials involved comparing 2 identical drills under identical conditions. The drill equipped with the seeding control system had better indices of time saving and efficiency (by 22 %). The study results allowed us to develop the software for the seeding control system and determine the optimal design and process parameters of the seeding control sensor for a pneumatic drill in order to reduce clogging in the seed pipes and improve the quality of seed distribution.
