THE AT500 BOX-TO-BOX SEED TREATER

TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR SEED TREATING.

Want to treat your own seed without the space or investment required for a full bulk system? A box-to-box seed treater gives growers, seed dealers and growing seed companies an efficient, affordable way to bring seed treating in-house.

UAS offers semi-automated and fully automated AT500H seed treaters, along with pump stands, treatment products, setup, calibration, training and 24/7 support to help you build a complete treating operation.

WHAT IS A BOX-TO-BOX SEED TREATER?

A box-to-box seed treater is a compact seed treating system that allows seed to move directly from one seed box, through the treater and into another box.

Compared with a larger bulk seed treating system, box-to-box treating requires less space and equipment while still giving you control over when your seed is treated, what goes on it and how much you treat at a time.

Systems like the AT500 don't require additional conveyors or hoppers, making them especially useful for growers and seed businesses looking for a straightforward way to begin treating their own seed.

Fast. Easy-to-use. Accurate. Affordable. Box-to-box treating checks all the boxes.

Looking for an economical way to treat seed, but don’t have the capacity for a bulk treating system? Box-to-box may be your best bet. Some box-to-box setups consist of conveyors, hoppers, and a seed treater, and can easily be converted to a bulk setup in the future. Others are just as effective with no conveyors necessary, like the AT500 from USC.

This innovative system is flexibility, convenience and efficiency all rolled into one. Accurate seed flow metering and patented slide-out atomizer technology allow for precision treating. And with no additional conveyors necessary—paired with its compact size—maneuvering and storing your system is easier than ever. 

Save time. Save space. Save money. Treat yourself to a box-to-box treater.

BOX-TO-BOX DRUM TREATERS

A box-to-box setup with the LPX2000 or LPV seed treater provides considerable flexibility. Conveyors and hoppers can be configured in a variety of ways, allowing you to maximize your space as you see fit.

BOX-TO-BOX SEED TREATER FAQS

  • A box-to-box seed treater moves seed from one seed box through a treating system and into another box. It provides an efficient way to treat smaller batches without the infrastructure required for a complete bulk seed treating system.

  • There isn't one acreage number that works for every operation. UAS generally positions box-to-box equipment for growers with 1,000+ acres, but treatment costs, annual volume, labor, timing and potential custom-treating revenue all affect the decision.

  • The semi-automated and fully automated AT500H systems are currently listed by UAS at approximately 800 pounds per minute.

  • Both offer approximately the same treating capacity. The fully automated system adds digital touchscreen controls, recipe storage, reporting and automatic pump-flow adjustments, while the semi-automated model provides a simpler, more economical entry into treating.

  • The AT500H is designed to operate without additional conveyors or hoppers, helping keep the system compact and reducing the amount of equipment needed to begin treating.

  • I'd answer this based on your exact AT500/pump-stand configurations. Your current UAS educational material says pump stands can house treatment and other chemistry such as inoculants and nematicides, but before we make a broad compatibility claim covering every biological/product, I'd word it around the products/configuration being used.

  • Yes. UAS specifically describes moving from box-to-box to bulk as a path for operations whose customer base, volume or capacity needs outgrow their existing setup.
