Robotics: time savings Via feed pipes and four feed valves, the required quantity of wet feed is precisely fed into the crates. The robot stacks the crates with the feed on a pallet. From an adjacent pallet, the robot takes the crates with the fullygrown larvae and empties the insects into a sieve. Special sieving technology is employed to separate larvae and their faeces or so-called frass. Frass is a very sustainable and organic fertiliser that helps the soil to build up humus. Alternatively, the frass can be used in biogas plants. Four feed valves per crate dispense the fresh feed...

Climate chamber with temperature and humidity control An exactly weighed batch of young larvae is added to the freshly dispensed feed mix. The crates are then ready to be moved into the climate chamber for one week. In the climate chamber, the temperature and humidity conditions must remain very constant. This is guaranteed by a climate computer that controls fresh and exhaust air fans and a heating system. Since the larvae also generate heat, use of a heat exchanger to recover up to 50 per cent of the exhaust air heat is recommended. Five-day-old larvae are added to every crate...
