Sticking robots
As Florensis, we are the only company in the bedding plant segment in Europe that works with sticking robots on a large scale, and we are proud of that. It all started with five robots. Now, our 24 robots together stick 60,000 cuttings per hour, 24/7. Partly thanks to the sticking robots, our delivery reliability increased.
The sticking robots work extremely fast besides that they are very efficient and bring our young plants quality to a higher level as well. Each cutting is stuck at the same depth in the tray, which results in perfectly uniform young plants. Thanks to the self-learning and artificial intelligence software of these robots, the quality of the sticking is constantly improving and the robots can be used for more and more different crops.
This video shows the complete process from our cuttings abroad to young plants in the Netherlands and how the robots are at work!
