Smart Seeder - manual disc seeder

Smart Seeder

Smart Seeder is a modular precision seeder designed to make sowing faster, cleaner, and more consistent

Designed for simple and practical use in the garden, it allows seeds to be deposited at regular intervals, limiting waste and reducing the need for thinning after emergence

No more bending down to place seeds one by one
Simply open your furrow to the desired depth, roll the Smart Seeder, then close the furrow

Simple, clean, and efficient

More consistent sowing, with less effort

The system is driven directly by the wheel: as it moves forward, the internal disc automatically rotates and distributes seeds into the furrow at more regular intervals

This allows for

• more consistent spacing
• cleaner rows
• less waste
• less overcrowding
• less thinning
• faster and more comfortable sowing

The goal is simple: save time during sowing and lose less afterward

A modular system designed to evolve

Smart Seeder is based on a system of interchangeable discs

The main body remains identical, only the internal disc changes depending on the seed type and desired spacing

A single tool can therefore adapt to multiple uses, simply by changing the disc in a few seconds

Each disc is designed to respect an adapted planting distance, in order to improve sowing consistency and limit the need for intervention later

New discs will enrich the collection to cover more seeds, needs, and sowing distances

And if the system is popular, other complementary garden accessories will also be added around this base

Quick change, no tools required

Disc changing has been designed to be simple and quick

A quarter turn is enough to unlock the system, remove the disc, insert another, and resume immediately

No complicated disassembly
No tools
No time wasted

The change is done in a few seconds directly in the garden

Few parts, easier to maintain

Unlike a traditional seeder, Smart Seeder uses very few parts

This makes it simpler, more reliable, and easier to maintain daily

And in case of wear or breakage, it is not necessary to replace the entire unit

Each part can be reprinted individually, allowing only the affected component to be repaired without having to remake the entire seeder

A more practical, more economical, and more durable system

Recommended Handle

The Smart Seeder is designed to accommodate a wooden handle with a 20 mm diameter

For good user comfort, I personally use a handle approximately 1.10 m to 1.20 m long for a height of 1.73 m

This length offers a good compromise between comfort, control, and ease of use in the garden

The handle length can of course be adjusted according to your height and working style to achieve a more natural and comfortable position

A design built to last

Smart Seeder was designed as a simple, robust, and durable assembly

The main body forms the structural base of the system
It is logically the most important part, designed to offer rigidity, stability, and longevity

The other elements are not "consumable" parts, but fully functional parts, also designed to be strong and resistant to normal use

They have simply been designed more intelligently: the parts most exposed to mechanical stress or wear remain easy and economical to replace if necessary

In case of significant breakage or wear, it is therefore not necessary to reprint the entire unit: only the affected part can be replaced quickly, with little material and without remaking the complete seeder

A system designed to last, but also to be easily repaired

Usage

1. Open your furrow to the desired depth
