Taizy’s KMR-100 is a fully automatic greenhouse tray needle seeder for commercial nurseries, delivering over 98 percent seeding accuracy at 500 to 1,200 trays per hour. It uses a Siemens PLC, touch-screen controls, and photoelectric detection to maintain one-hole-one-seed placement.
The machine handles seeds from 0.3 to 15 mm, supports standard and custom trays up to 540 mm wide, and can include an optional watering module. It is aimed at large-scale seedling centers, greenhouses, transplant producers, and cooperatives seeking high-throughput automated sowing.
Taizy is releasing the KMR-100, a fully automatic greenhouse tray needle seeder built for commercial nurseries that need high throughput without giving up accuracy. It holds a seeding precision above 98%, runs 500-1,200 trays per hour depending on tray speed, and is the first machine in our lineup to pair a Siemens PLC with real-time photoelectric fault detection.
The headline problem it solves is a familiar one for seedling centers: at high line speeds, most vacuum seeders start dropping or double-dropping seeds, and a single missing seedling in a plug tray costs you a sellable cell. The KMR-100 keeps one-hole-one-seed accuracy across its full speed range, so the trays that leave the line are transplant-ready.

What Makes the KMR-100 Tray Seeder Different
- Siemens PLC, not a generic controller. The programmable controller coordinates soil feeding, hole punching, needle indexing and soil covering so each step stays timed as line speed changes. You change crop without mechanical re-tooling.
- Real-time photoelectric protection. A sensor detects when no tray is under the head and instantly suspends seeding. No seed is wasted on bare substrate, and the machine does not jam.
- Vacuum needle accuracy above 98%. Each needle picks a single seed by vacuum and drops it into its own cell, so a 200-cell tray gets a genuinely uniform stand.
- Broad tray compatibility. Runs 32, 50, 72, 105, 128 and 200-cell standard 540 × 280 mm trays. Custom trays are engineered free of additional charge.
- Optional watering module. The watering configuration adds a spray section so trays exit pre-watered and go straight to the germination chamber. It adds 1,600 mm of length and 140 kg.
How It Fits the Taizy Seeder Line
The KMR-100 sits at the top of our vacuum needle family. If you are comparing options, here is how it relates to the machines most buyers already know:
| نموذج | Best for | سعة | دقة |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMR-78 (Semi-Auto) | Small farms, beginners | 200 trays/h | >95% |
| KMR-80-2 (Compact Auto) | Greenhouses, medium volume | 200-400 trays/h | >97-98% |
| KMR-100 (this release) | Large-scale commercial seedling | 500-1,200 trays/h | >97-98% |
Who the KMR-100 Needle Seeder Was Built For
- Commercial seedling centers selling uniform plug trays to growers.
- Large-scale greenhouses running multiple crops per season.
- Vegetable transplant producers moving from manual sowing to an automated line.
- Agricultural cooperatives pooling purchasing power for one high-capacity line.
Price and Lead Time of Seeding Machine
Because the KMR-100 is configured per buyer (tray sizes, watering option, custom trays), we quote against your crop list rather than publish a single sticker. Production runs 15-25 working days, followed by 25-40 days of sea freight from Qingdao. Every unit ships with five sets of suction nozzles and a full toolbox, and our engineers run your own seed samples on the machine before it leaves the factory.
What seeds can the KMR-100 handle?
Any seed from 0.3 mm to 15 mm, in any shape, including pelleted vegetable seed and small flower seed. Five nozzle sets ship standard and cover the common size bands.
Does the KMR-100 water the trays?
Only the watering configuration adds a spray module so trays exit pre-watered for the germination chamber. The standard unit fills, punches, sows and covers soil; you can add watering later without replacing the seeder.
What is the warranty and after-sales support?
Two years on mechanical parts, with installation video guides, multilingual manuals and video-call training. Our team provides 24/7 online technical support.
Can it run trays that are not 540 mm wide?
Yes. Custom tray widths are engineered free of additional charge; send us your tray specification and we match the feeding and needle indexing to it.
