Williames ST2500: The World’s Fastest Seeding Machine

The Williames ST2500 Seeding Machine is the world’s fastest and most advanced seeding solution, engineered for high-volume, precision-driven horticultural production. Capable of processing up to 2,500 trays per hour, the ST2500 seeding machine integrates multiple robust, high-performance components into one seamless system — filling, seeding, covering, and watering trays with unmatched efficiency. Whether working with vegetable, flower, or tree seeds, this machine ensures consistent single-seed placement across all known tray types, delivering superior accuracy and uniformity at scale.

The ST2500 seeding machine combines reliability, speed, and adaptability in one compact footprint. Its modular design features a Tray De-Stacker, FNC Universal Filler with Soil Accelerator, high-speed Seeder with 5 singulator bars, V5 Vermiculite Coverer, and DC Watering Tunnel — all powered by heavy-duty motors and intelligent control systems. With low maintenance requirements and fingertip adjustment controls, the ST2500 maximizes productivity while minimizing labor and downtime, making it the ideal investment for commercial growers demanding precision and performance.

Features and Benefits of Seeding Machine ST2500

  • Processes up to 2,500 trays per hour, the highest throughput in the ST range
  • Accommodates all known international tray sizes
  • Supports cleat-to-cleat 30-inch and optional 32-inch spacing with two trays between cleats
  • Finger-tip adjustable to suit a wide range of tray widths and styles
