It then enters the mixing duct 5 again through the third air guide pipe 13 and the axial flow fan 4, forming a gas circulation. The air inlet of the axial flow fan 4 is connected to the air outlet of the air filter 3 through the third air guide pipe 13, realizing the recycling of airflow.

[0034] After all the corn seeds have been processed, turn off atomizer 2 and axial flow fan 4. Collect the processed corn seeds from the discharge port of screw conveyor 1 and proceed with subsequent sowing or storage operations.
