Mobile Seed Conveyor Automation for AgField
Boost Agricultural Efficiency with Automated Conveyor Systems
In modern agriculture, preserving grain quality post-harvest is a major challenge. Grains are prone to contamination and damage during transport, especially if handled improperly. Mobile seed conveyors offer an effective way to safely move high volumes of grain at controlled speeds—minimising damage and maintaining product integrity.
That’s where Telemation’s automation and control solutions come in.
AgField partnered with us to automate their mobile seed conveyor system, aiming to increase efficiency, enhance operator safety, and reduce downtime in the field.
Smart Agricultural Automation in Action
We engineered a bespoke remote control system combining a Tele-Radio Puma transmitter/receiver pair with a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) and EPEC control logic. This integration enables full wireless operation of the conveyor from a distance, making agricultural processes safer, faster, and more intuitive.
Key Features of the Automated Seed Conveyor System:
✅ Remote Control Functionality
The Puma T26 industrial transmitter allows operators to control all conveyor functions from a safe distance, improving visibility and workflow speed.
✅ Real-Time System Diagnostics
The system monitors for faults and operational errors, providing instant alerts that prevent equipment damage and downtime.
✅ Custom Flow Rate Configuration
Operators can set precise conveyor speeds for different materials, helping protect delicate seeds and optimising throughput.
✅ Modular Section Control
The conveyor is divided into zones (e.g., bins 1–3 as Section 1, bins 4–6 as Section 2) for flexible, targeted handling.
Results: Efficiency, Safety & Precision Farming
By integrating remote control and diagnostic technology, Telemation helped AgField:
Minimise seed damage and contamination
Reduce operational downtime and equipment failure
Improve safety through remote access and fault management
Optimise workflow across modular sections of their conveyor system
This solution represents the future of agricultural machinery automation—where wireless control, live monitoring, and custom logic create smarter, safer, and more reliable farming equipment.
