At AmazonePlants in Honselersdijk, it's all about efficiency and flexibility. With the growing numbers of anthuriums in different pot sizes, they no longer wanted to rely on manual labor for potting and spacing. The question: a smart solution that automates both processes – preferably at the same time.
We developed a robot application that does exactly that.
Save up and expand – at the same time
The robotic arm is designed to handle multiple tasks. Potting, filling tables, moving wider: it can all be done with one system. And even better: it can do it simultaneously.
For example:
- Filling pots size 12 during the day and simultaneously widening pot size 17
- Or in the evening, just spread out, while the staff has already gone home
- Switching between pot sizes or functions is easy, without reconfiguration
Fully customizable
The settings for distance, stroke, and pot size can be easily adjusted via the touchscreen. The gripper is suitable for pot sizes 12, 14, and 17 cm – no switching is necessary.
What does it yield?
- Multi-functional: one robot for multiple tasks and pot sizes
- Simultaneously usable: stacking and spreading run parallel
- Flexible in planning: available during the day, in the evening, or at night
- Less manual work: staff savings without loss of quality
- Scalable: ready for growth, without extra pressure on the workplace
The result: AmazonePlants now has a versatile robotic solution in-house that continuously operates and effortlessly adapts to the process. Smart, practical, and future-proof.
