TTA-ISO FlexSorter - Advanced Plant Sorting and Transplanting System
The FlexSorter by TTA-ISO represents a sophisticated solution for horticultural sorting equipment, melding transplanting and plant grading in a singular process. Utilizing proprietary plant grippers and supported by a pusher pin system, the FlexSorter efficiently extracts plants from donor trays. A key feature of this machinery is its ability to handle plugs only once, drastically reducing potential damage from multiple handling. The FlexSorter uses an imaging system with an intuitive interface and integrated self-diagnosis to streamline operations. Capable of managing 3,000 to 12,000 plugs per hour, this equipment excels in high-capacity environments. The system supports a maximum of four classifications, directing approved plants to corresponding destination belts while rejected ones are gathered on a waste belt. Suited for use in nurseries, the FlexSorter optimizes efficiency with reduced manual intervention, marking it as a significant advancement in plant sorting and transplanting technology.
The FlexSorter is a unique selection equipment that combines transplanting and multiple class selection into one simple step.
The FlexSorter extracts plants from the donor tray with our in-house developed plant grippers, assisted by a pusher pin system from below. The machine is unique since it selects plants and handles the plugs only once.
The plant grippers give the plants space so that it's easy to determine the plant's quality. After selection, the FlexSorter transfers approved plants to the selected destination belts, grade by grade. The number of classifications depends on the number of destination belts and is maximized at four.
Discarded plants and empty plugs are collected on a waste belt. The selected trays are all combined, class by class. Both the machine and the imaging system offer an easy-to-understand user interface with inbuilt self-diagnosis. The FlexSorter is the new generation of selection equipment, avoiding plant damage due to double handling of plants.
