What is volumetric metering?
A method of measuring output where the output is changed by varying speed.
Volumetric metering is commonly used in agriculture and manufacturing to ensure accurate flow rates.
How many openers does a 1 meter section feed on a 1690?
1 opener.
This configuration indicates a direct relationship between the meter section and the number of openers.
How many openers does a 1 meter section feed on a 1890?
2 openers.
This setup shows a different operational design compared to the 1690 model.
What is the accuracy variation achievable with metering?
As good as 2% variation between rollers.
This level of accuracy is critical for effective product distribution.
What factors can affect the accuracy of volumetric metering?
Rates, slope, crops, and the use of splitters.
These factors must be considered for optimal performance and measurement accuracy.
