The HE-VA Multi-Seeder and Multi-Seeder Twin have been developed to work in combination with HE-VA cultivation and grassland machinery.
Whilst the seeders themselves ensure precise seed rates, simple calibration and simple to use controls, the fitting kits that HE-VA have developed allow easy, safe access and provide for all seed placement requirements.

ISOBUS, iSOCAN Artemis control, is standard on Twin Multi-Seeders, and an option on the single hopper Multi-Seeder
A selection of different seed rollers ensures that on a 3m Grass Rejuvenator the Multi-Seeder achieves an even spread pattern for grass reseeding. Similarly band seeding of Oilseed Rape at an ultra low seed rate can be achieved on a Subsoiler. Furthermore the Twin Multi-Seeder allows a single control box to be used for OSR seed and slug pellet or fertiliser application at the same time.
Available as standard with twin electric fans, or as a Pro version with a hydraulic fan for increased air flow when used on wider implements and more demanding situations.
Multi-Seeders supplied with an Evolution or Subsoiler & Stealth models are supplied with a single fine roller.
HE-VA offer complete Multi-Seeder mounting kits for:
Tip Roller, Tip Roller XL, Grass Roller, Disc Roller Contour, Disc Roller XL Contour, Combi-Disc, Triple Tiller, Subsoiler and Stealth. Mounting kits are supplied as standard with the Grass Rejuvenator and Evolution.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
Single or Twin Metering System
The Multi-Seeder can be supplied with a single or twin metering system, the twin model allows a single control box to be used for OSR seed and slug pellet or fertiliser application at the same time.
Even Seed Distribution
The Multi-Seeder can be used for either band application (recommended for OSR) or to spread seed evenly across the whole width.
The standard broadcasting outlets spread the seed in a overlapping pattern for an even full width coverage. Alternatively modified outlets are used for band application of seed into rows. The seed placement is adjusted by changing the height of the distribution outlet, this will give you wider or narrower bands.
Precise Seed Metering
A selection of different seed rollers ensure that whatever the application requirements e.g. even spread (grass seed), band seeding at ultra low rate (OSR) the correct rate can be achieved. The seed rollers available are as follows: grain/fertiliser seed roller, coarse seed roller, medium seed roller, fine seed roller, large hollow seed roller and small hollow seed roller.
Furthermore, the Twin Multi-Seeder allows a single control box to control both hoppers independently e.g. OSR and slug pellets or fertiliser at the same time at different rates.
Fine and coarse seed rollers are supplied as standard. A single fine roller is supplied with the Multi-Seeder for the Evolution, Subsoiler and Stealth.
There are 8 or 12 seed outlets as standard but it is possible to blank off a number of them using the Blanking Roller and Stop Kit, for example for applying seed in a band behind a five-leg subsoiler with one outlet per leg, running directly in-line with each leg.
RATE CONTROL
Forward speed control, i.e. seed roller metering, can be mechanically driven for the Grass Rejuvenator Multi-Seeder, or on all other Multi-Seeder models, controlled by GPS and driven by electric motor (EL). Pneumatic distribution is either via electric fan or, by hydraulic fan on all Pro models.
ISOBUS is standard on Twin Multi-Seeders, and an option on the single hopper Multi-Seeders.
The amount of seed applied is controlled by the speed of the metering roller, this is adjusted until the desired application rate is achieved.
The control box in the cab allows setting and adjustment on the move. Calibration is performed by removing the metering roller cover and using a calibration bag.

Forward Speed Related Metering
The Multi-Seeder comes with a GPS receiver to give constant forward speed related metering.
On some tractors it is possible to connect to the tractors own forward speed monitoring system. Forward speed related metering means accurately maintained application rates on high draft machines and in awkwardly shaped fields where ground speed may vary.
If a mechanical driven model is chosen then a land wheel & cable system are used giving accurate forward speed related metering
Robust Build
The Multi-Seeder is supplied with a strong mounting plate which assist fitting to whatever cultivation machine is chosen. The hopper and chassis are built to withstand the rigors of high speed seeding in arduous conditions.
EASY TO FIT
Three simple steps to mounting your Multi-Seeder for ideal seed placement:
Step 1 - Hopper Positioning
The Multi-Seeder Hopper can be mounted anywhere but it is important to ensure that the pipes to the outlets are not too long and that the seed always flows downhill.
Practicalities of calibration and filling the hopper should always be considered when mounting the hopper. A simple base plate is provided to bolt or weld onto the implement, the Variocast can then be mounted onto this and removed if necessary.
Step 2 - GPS Receiver
Multi-Seeder's are capable of metering to within 0.1Kg/ha if required which is critically important with expensive small seeds. The GPS receiver is an important part of this accurate metering and should be mounted out of the way of soil flow from the cultivator where it can follow the contours of the land.
The GPS receiver needs to be mounted at 45 degrees from horizontal and the sensor should ideally be mounted between 60cm and 90cm above the ground to ensure an accurate reading of the forward speed. A GPS receiver cutout switch may be needed to cut off reading when turning on the headlands.
Step 3 - Outlets
Positioning the outlets correctly is critical for good seed placement. With most applications, the outlets should be mounted just behind the cultivation elements and in front of the press roller.
Where possible some adjustment should be designed into the mounting of the outlets to allow fine tuning of the seed placement in the field. The optional 1.5m or 2m distributor holders assist mounting the outlets and allow horizontal and vertical adjustment to alter the spread pattern.
MULTI-SEEDER MODELS
The HE-VA Multi-Seeder 8 incorporates a mechanical ground wheel that drives the metering roller. Supplied with an RDS control box.
OSR seed rates, grass seed or cover crop seeds can be accurately broadcast or band spread to control cost and maximise yield and the Multi-Seeder allows unmatched precision whilst also monitoring the seed levels and work rates for the operator.
