MARViN XLine II
High-Capacity Seed Counting & Precision Size Analysis
- High-Capacity Seed Analysis
Designed for larger sample volumes, the MARViN XLine II processes approximately 2,000 wheat kernels per batch, making it ideal for high-throughput seed analysis.
- Precise Seed Counting & Measuring
Reliable seed counting with a typical accuracy of ≥99.5% under defined conditions, combined with precise measurement of seed length, width and projected area.
- Fast & Efficient Sample Processing
Typical measurement times of just 3–5 seconds per sample ensure efficient workflows, even when handling larger seed batches.
- Easy & Convenient Sample Handling
The practical tilt-and-pour mechanism allows quick and effortless emptying of the seed tray, minimizing handling time between measurements.
- Flexible & Customizable Analysis
Adapt measurement parameters, size classifications and statistical evaluations to your specific requirements using the configurable MARViN software.

FAQ
Which parameters can be measured with MARViN VisionLine
The MARViN software for Seed Analyzers, Seed Counters, and Grain Counters is an open and flexible platform that allows full customization by the customer. All features can be tailored to specific requirements, making it ideal for advanced Seed Analysis and Phenotyping.
We provide a pre-configured default setting that includes the most essential parameters for seed detection and analysis:
- Number of good seeds
- 1000 seed weight (grams)
- Average seed size (mm²)
- Proportion of undersized seeds in the sample (%)
- Editable fields for sample ID and variety
Customers also have the option to order a service package to further customize their MARViN Seed Analyzer system. Additional configurable parameters include:
- Length and width in millimeters
- Area in mm² and pixels
- Circularity and length/width ratio
- Detection of seeds that are too small or broken
- Statistical parameters (average, deviation, standard deviation, etc.)
- Customizable parameters, such as impurity levels
- Brightness distribution for each seed in up to 5 categories (e.g., very flat or transparent seeds)
All data can be calculated and analyzed using the built-in formula editor, offering a comprehensive solution for rapid and accurate Seed Analysis with the MARViN Rapid Seed Counter.
