Here at Horstine we appreciate it is more than one element that the discerning buyer is looking for.
The cost of inputs continues to rise and with increasing focus on operator safety and minimising environmental impact, accurate application has never been so critical.
Horstine precision applicators are designed to ensure this application rate is uniform across the full spread width of the machine. To guarantee there is no under/over dosing of chemical from any outlet, a individual metering rotor is used to supply each individual distribution outlet.
Horstine granular applicators do not utilise distribution heads as these systems meter the chemical from one rotor, then use airflow to split this metered product to the distribution outlets. This leaves open the probability of variation between the outlets. With the Horstine individual metering system these variations are not possible.
