A metering unit is installed under each hopper tip. The metering roller is electrically driven and can be exchanged. The metered material falls into the sluice or injector and is directed by the air current to the distributor head and then on to the coulters. As soon as the implement is raised when turning at the end of a field, the electric motor switches off and the metering roller comes to a halt.
