PLANT TECHNOLOGY Prior to all cultivation, pots, trays and other sorts of carriers are filled with a substrate. To achieve a successful growth of the root system of the plant, a tray must be filled with the correct density level. A dibbled tray ensures perfect positioning of the seed. In designing our machines, we have taken these aspects into careful consideration to ensure optimal growth for your plants. The composition of the substrate can either be composed out of several components or one single component, for instance peat. The process starts with delivery in bulk, large bags, small...

Ensure optimal growth for your plants.

Seeders for every type of seed.

PLANT TECHNOLOGY Seeding Seed is valuable and accurate seeding is a substantial saving for every grower. Visser designed seeders for every type of seed. In the design we have focused on accuracy, continuity and uniformity. No double seeds, no empty cells and a precise sowing result. Due to the diversity of small and large nursery operations, there are many different seeders available. Both the great variety of plants and the wide variety of carriers, require different seeders. Over the past 40 years, Visser has developed a seeding range that is suitable for all capacity needs and types of...

PLANT TECHNOLOGY Transplanting Great flexibility, sufficient capacity, ease of operation and a perfect planting result are probably the most important characteristics an automatic planting machine should have. Visser has more than 25 years of expertise in automatic planting operations and has developed a very wide range of models for both small and large nurseries, for planting into both trays and pots. Low change-over times, visual control and programming, a high degree of reliability, excellent planting results and capacities up to as high as 45,000 plants an hour characterize the high...

25 years of experience in transplanting.

The most versatile line of image recognition systems.

PLANT TECHNOLOGY Vision grading Over the last decade, the use of image recognition techniques has also found its way to the greenhouse industry. Vissers many years of experience in terms of image recognition systems in greenhouse horticulture in virtually all cultivations has resulted in the most versatile line of image recognition systems for the greenhouse industry. From inspecting trays and making them uniform, grading young plants in trays to grading pot plants. Image recognition systems are equipped with digital video cameras. Grading can be based on many criteria such as volume,...

PLANT TECHNOLOGY Pot handling Logistics carried out as efficiently as possible and optimum utilization of space available in your nursery are of paramount importance in pot handling operations. At Visser, thinking in these terms has become a second nature, always applied to the situation of your specific operations. For some 20 years now, the continuously innovating Visser Space-O-Mat system has become a common concept in potplant nurseries but also increasingly in tree nurseries with container cultivation ranging from small to large scale. The system is suitable for both concrete and...

Logistics carried out as efficiently as possible.

PLANT TECHNOLOGY Buffering & shipping The Visser Dynamic Buffering System is a patented system for growers who want flexibility in their greenhouse space and in the choice of their pot sizes. The dynamic buffering system includes the Dynagrip. The Dynagrip is a crane that can pick up pots from the conveyor belt where they have been presented after they have been graded. The Dynagrip puts the pots on the eb and flow floor in the greenhouse. The program in this system registers where the specific pots are located. Therefore they can be picked up by the crane at any given moment. The Dynagrip...

PLANT TECHNOLOGY Packing A neatly efficiently packed plant requires a well designed automated process. Visser provides options for labeling, sleeving and automatic loading.

PLANT TECHNOLOGY Washing The industrial washing machines supplied by Visser are suitable for cleaning trays, buckets, pallets, etc. They are available in a variety of models that can, if required, be integrated with blow off and drying units and automated loading and unloading systems. Because of the modular cleaning sections, the use of chemicals or high temperatures, solutions for any cleaning problem can be found. The filtration systems increase the life of the tank water contents and ensure a cost-effective and reduction in use of energy.

PLANT TECHNOLOGY Internal 'Q Transport Every product has to be brought into and out of the greenhouse one or several times a year. Many types of transport systems have already been developed for your products, which means that there is a fitting solution for any greenhouse-and product combination. Visser can supply any type of internal transport system, from semi automatic such as transport by forklift truck or overhead cranes to fully automatic such as X-Y internal transport or mobile bench systems.

A fitting solution for any greenhouse.

Storage and preparation of soil substrate.

PLANT TECHNOLOGY Soil handling The storage and preparation of soil substrates form the basis of the cultivation of plants. The most suitable system can be chosen according to volume, the number of different substrates and the application required. For substrate storage, there are digging systems, conveyor equipped bunkers and big bale breakers. For substrate preparation, there are soil mixing, watering and glue systems that have already proved themselves in practice for many years.
