The BETA65 drum seeding line is a modular system designed for high-capacity production, capable of seeding up to 800 containers per hour.

These lines offer complete versatility, supporting all tray types including polystyrene, thermoformed, and rigid injection-molded plastic. Depending on the tray type, an integrated distributor is available for the automatic feeding of empty containers into the line.

The tray filler ensures uniform coverage across all cells with adjustable soil density control and includes a dedicated hopper for the automatic recovery of excess peat. At the core of the system is the SEMBETA65 seeder; containers transition from the filler to a dibbler drum, which creates a precise, centered hole in each cell. The seeds are then accurately positioned by a synchronised sowing drum.

A standout feature of the BETA line is its exceptional flexibility. The high suction power of the sowing drum allows it to handle seeds of all shapes and sizes without difficulty. The system can also be adapted for forestry applications, capable of sowing large seeds—such as acorns—using a specialised rubber drum. To complete the automated cycle, the line features integrated covering and watering units, followed by a balance stacker that organizes containers into orderly stacks for easy extraction or palletisation.

Every component of the BETA65 is engineered to meet specific customer requirements, focusing on reducing maintenance, simplifying seed changeovers, and optimizing operator workflow.
