Abstract
The paper covers process flowsheets and design implementation of two-phase coulter systems of seeding machines for precision farming technologies. A mathematical model of the movement of a two-phase coulter system has been developed and simulation modelling has been conducted. As a result, the ability of a two-phase coulter system to operate a specified working mode, if such operating parameters as, for example, the amplitude and the frequency of irregularities entering a coulter system, the mass of a slot cutter and an indenting disk, a damping coefficient, an amplification coefficient etc. are changed, given that there are systematic and random errors of measuring and control elements, has been determined. Technology evaluation of a two-phase coulter system operation was conducted in the field environment by determining the variation coefficients of a seeding depth, the distance between plants in a row, field germination capacity and the average soil consistency in the area of a plant location. Technical and economic assessment of the application of a two-phase coulter system on row-crop seeding machines has been conducted.
