The air-suction roller dibbler for peanuts is the core component to realizing precision seeding on film; however, the seeds in the dibbler cannot accurately fall into the seed-guiding mechanism during the work. In this study, we stabilized the seed trajectory by adjusting the installation angles of the chock block (IACB) and installation angles of the dibbler cover (IADC). We studied the seed-movement characteristics under different IACB and dibbler covers using EDEM simulation software. The separation between the seed and the baffle was obtained for different installation conditions, which were contact separation and noncontact separation. We obtained the best seeding performance when the seed was released from the edge of the dibbler cover in contact with the baffle of the seed separation tray. In the bench test, we obtained the best seed-feeding performance at 48.28° for the IACB, 12.29° for the IADC, and 3.84 km/h for the machine. The seeding pass rate was 95.35%, the missed seeding rate was 2.52%, and the reseeding rate was 2.11%. The field verification test showed that the machine worked well with the combination, and the seeding pass rate was above 92%, which meets the requirements of the single-grain precision sowing of peanuts and substantially improves the operation performance.
