Semi-automatic horticulture handling system Space-O-Mat

for pots

The Space-O-Mat system is an efficient solution for transporting pots and trays, and the spacing of pots to reduce labor in the greenhouse. The Space-O-Mat system has become a common concept and has proven itself internationally over the years. Automate your handling process with the VSM Forklift and transport and spacing forks. -Flexible system -Efficient and easy -Proven worldwide Buffer belt The Space-O-Mat line starts with filling the pots automatically. Afterward, the plants will be transported by an output conveyor towards the buffer belt. A custom-made push-over template is used to acquire the precision needed to pick up the pots. The exact positioning of the pots allows for easy pickup. VSM forklift The Visser Spacing Machine (VSM) Forklift is functional in many situations and can be used for transporting pots, moving and loading soil bails and totes, and loading and unloading trucks. The VSM is available as either a 3-wheel or as a 4-wheel version. Both types are available as diesel, LPG, and electric. Spacing fork The spacing fork is used for spacing pots from high to lower densities. The pots are placed in a staggered pattern to utilize available space efficiently. The distance between the pots will be set at the Space-O-Mat control box. To ensure the required positioning, the speed of the chain moves independently from the forklift. The forks can be custom-made for every pot size.
