Today, most companies use an automatic packaging system that relies on weight to package their seeds. Once the packaging stage is complete, however, these companies then sell to customers, not based on weight, but based on numbers of seeds per package. Because it is impossible to ensure selling an exact number of seeds based on weight, seed manufacturers normally add extra seeds to each package to ensure customer satisfaction. This practice, while pleasing customers, still results in lost revenue.
Using the DATA automatic filling machine, there is immediate savings because companies can actually sell according to number and not weight and therefore can match their sales order with their packaging. Customers are still content to receive the number of seeds they purchased, while manufacturers are able to benefit from actually selling a much higher percentage of their seed stock. The DATA automatic filling machine is significantly more accurate, with no loss in speed. It can pack thousands of seeds per minute with an accuracy of 99.5-99.9%.
