Conveyor
Patented Conveyor Design
Seed Protection
Handling your high-value seed with the greatest care is crucial for any seed tender. At Unverferth, we’ve spent years researching and testing different designs, resulting in the Seed Pro conveyor which excels in protecting your high-value seed investment.
Conveyor Technology
The patented 5-ply rubber conveyor belt features offset rows of cupped cleats to minimize seed damage while providing a greater carrying capacity. The offset in each cleat allows the belt to cup inside the conveyor tube and pass by each other to reduce seed pinching.
The conveyor inlet features patented side seals and a brush-seal-brush design to prevent seed from back feeding into the bottom of the conveyor, minimizing seed damage.
The extended-length rounded conveyor hood is rubber lined for enhanced seed flow and protection.
The top-mounted, 6-cubic-inch hydraulic motor pulls the belt forward, keeping it tight for the most efficient and gentlest seed movement.
Unloading Speeds
If you’re filling a larger central fill planter or drill, the 8” conveyor tube on models 410XL and 410 is a good choice for unloading up to 35 bushels per minute.
The 6” conveyor tube on models 410 and 210 unload at 16 bushels per minute for precise control when filling individual planter or drill boxes.
Conveyor Length
Conveyor length is measured from center of the top bearing to center of the bottom bearing for a true measurement of side reach and unloading height.
Easy Filling
Model 410XL utilizes a 21’ long conveyor with a maximum unloading height of 13’6” and features 52” of hydraulically-operated vertical height adjustment.
Model 410 features 41” of hydraulic vertical height adjustment and model 210 features 50” of hydraulic vertical height adjustment. Both models utilize an 18’ long conveyor with a maximum unloading height of 12’.
All models are standard with two downspouts and the downspouts are tool-free removable.
The 4’ flex spout is ideal for filling central fill planters or drills while the 2-stage telescoping downspout is ideal for filling individual planter boxes and reach up to 34’ on model 410XL and 30’ on models 410 and 210.
Conveyor Controls
The Seed Pro is standard with an electric 2-function wired remote that raises/lowers the conveyor and turns the conveyor on/off.
All models can be equipped with optional wireless remote packages that can be found in the accessories section.
Convenience Features
Every conveyor is equipped with the Smooth-Start engagement feature which gently brings the conveyor belt up to maximum speed, which increases the belt life.
Electronic speed control allows the operator to adjust the speed of the conveyor belt independently from the engine for fine-tuning the unloading speed.
A tool-free removable belt access cover allows the operator to quickly check the belt tension to ensure proper operation.
Cleaning out seed between varieties is quick and easy with the tool-free removable hinged cleanout door located at the bottom of the conveyor.
Additional Features
The conveyor can be stored in the front or swung 180° to the rear of the seed tender for convenient road transport. Stainless steel rollers and roller plates allow the conveyor to swing from front to rear and locking increments ensures the operator can lock the conveyor every 10” for unloading versatility.
A redesigned over-center hopper lock is easy to use and the large rubber hopper intake at the bottom of the conveyor increases seed flow.
A standard hopper cover has elastic bands that hold it tightly in place to safeguard the contents.
Pro Box Platform
Seed Handling Versatility
All 10-Series Seed Pro seed tenders feature a dual-compartment unloading chute design for handling multiple seed varieties.
The 5”x6” wheel-operated unloading doors and standard regulating baffle maximizes seed flow and direct seeds into the intake of the conveyor for increased unloading efficiency.
Models & Capacities
Models 410XL and 410 can carry up to four 50 seed unit boxes.
Model 210 can carry up to two 50 seed unit boxes.
Platform Design
Easy-to-use heavy-duty steel hinge latches with locks securely fasten the pro boxes to the platform for worry-free operation.
Standard protective lids cover the unloading chutes when not in use to keep out moisture and debris. A convenient storage holder for the lids ensure safe keeping when not in use.
Two viewing windows in the unloading chute allow the operator to easily monitor seed flow during unloading.
Engine & Power-Pak
A commercial-duty gas engine powers the hydraulic system and features an electric start, battery quick-disconnect for storage, and a large control box on the seed tender's conveyor side for easy operation.
