Viscon has introduced a new robotic gap filling solution for plant growers using advanced Delta robotic technology. This machine ensures 100% filled plant trays by eliminating inefficiencies in the transplanting process where missing plants can occur.
In current production lines, flawless transplanting is a challenge. During this process, some plant cells in a tray may not be filled, due to issues like germination problems in the source tray or transplanting errors. This results in incomplete trays, leading to inefficiencies and production losses. The robot filler offers the perfect solution.
This robot filler is placed directly behind the transplanter in the production line and automatically fills the missing plants in the trays. The delta technology, known for its speed and precision, ensures the machine can place up to 1,600 plants per hour. With just one gripper, the robot can quickly and accurately pick up plants and place them in the correct position in the tray, regardless of the gaps from the initial process.
The use of delta technology results in significant labor savings. Growers no longer need to manually fill missing plants, saving both time and costs. Additionally, the machine is especially useful for replenishing plants at the beginning and end of a batch, where production typically faces higher loss rates.
What truly sets this robot filler apart is its user-friendliness. Operation is simple and intuitive, and settings for different tray combinations can be quickly adjusted, making the machine highly flexible. Whether dealing with different plant types, tray sizes, or other variables, the machine can be swiftly configured to meet the specific needs of the customer.
A standout feature is the conveyor tracking functionality. This technology allows trays to move continuously on the conveyor belt while the robot filler adds plants. As a result, the production line remains in motion, ensuring maximum output. The robot filler can be easily added to any existing line in a nursery, making it a valuable addition to existing setups. Thanks to its modular design, the machine can be quickly installed and integrated without requiring major adjustments to the current production line.
The high speed, precision, and user-friendliness make it a valuable investment for growers looking to optimize their production lines while reducing labor costs. This robot filler provides an efficient and reliable solution for automatically filling in missing plants, leading to higher productivity, improved quality, and reduced losses.
