TTA - Model FlexSorter - Automated Transplanting and Selection Machine
The FlexSorter represents a technological advancement in sorting and transplanting processes used in agricultural and horticultural industries. This equipment innovatively integrates the tasks of multiple class selection and precise transplanting into a single step, significantly enhancing efficiency and reducing manual labor. It employs sophisticated plant grippers to handle various types of plants, ensuring accurate and gentle handling. The FlexSorter is versatile, accommodating different operational needs across several applications such as horticulture nurseries and forestry. As a modular system, it is designed for easy integration into existing production lines, providing flexibility in handling diverse plant sizes and types. This machine is ideal for sorting lines and nurseries that aim to streamline operations and enhance throughput. Its implementation can lead to improved consistency and accuracy in plant selection, directly impacting the productivity of the agricultural operations.
The FlexSorter is unique since it selects plants and handles the plugs only one time! Plants are extracted from the donor tray with our in-house developed plant grippers, assisted by a pusherpin system from below. The plant grippers give the plants space, so that it's easily to determine the plant 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 on 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 offers an easy-to-understand user interface with inbuilt self-diagnosis. The FlexSorter is the new generation of selection equipment, avoiding the plant damage due to double handling of plants.
