Distribution by auger

The principle of the Microsem distribution is based on a system of auger. The microgranules contained in the hopper are picked up by 2 augers (1). The agitators (2) allow for a regular feed of these augers. A finger wheel (3) then distributes the product uniformly in the chutes (4).
