Brinkman UK to exhibit number of innovative machines at Fruit Focus

Brinkman (Horticultural Service) UK Ltd are exhibiting a number of machines:

Weterings biochopper

The Bio Chopper Compact shreds crops, such as tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, aubergines, strawberries or raspberries. The crop volume is reduced by approximately 80% of its original volume.



The machine works with crop sheets on which the crop is placed. It rolls up the canvas and pulls in the stems. The crop is then shredded or chopped, after which the crop waste is dumped into a container. The container can be emptied by a forklift.

The Bio Chopper Compact has a user friendly interface, is built according to the latest safety standards and has a capacity of 2.500-5.000 m2/hour (depending on the circumstances). Its compact dimensions make the machine suitable for narrow situations.

Logitec coco mill

Coir is being used more often in modern horticulture due to the excellent breeding characteristics and good availability of the material. Coir is thought to be one of the most important growing media of the future. By compressing the material into blocks, coir can be shipped economically worldwide.

Up to now coir processing has been a slow process or carried out using brute force
which breaks up the compressed blocks. This can damage the fibres and does not
incorporate the necessary moisture in the coir to decompress properly. Proper moisture is required before filling and planting.



The Logitec Plus Coco Mill has been developed to moisturize and break up the compressed blocks in the proper way. The mill brings the coir back to its original state with the desired moisture level. The mill gently decompresses the coir using moisture control and a specialised screen. The special screen only releases the coir that is properly processed. The process is done at a rate of about 12m3 per hour (around 16 cubic yards).

CM100The Logitec Plus Coco Mill CM100 is available in a manual and semi automatic
version. From the control unit the start, stop and run (only semi automatic) times
of the individual components can be set.

pulsFOG Tracfog

Fogging machines have come a long way in the past 60+ years and we are seeing an increase in greenhouse operators adding on to or completely transitioning over to more modern hazing procedures. In our opinion, the main reason of steady turnover to these new fogging techniques (noticeably in the greenhouse market) is from availability of information on modernized fogging practices found on the internet and in other media sources in today's globalization. pulsFOG helps makes it an uncomplicated and smooth transition from older methods and/or update to current ones with our revolutionary, powerful, yet easy-to-handle and operate, PTO driven TracFOG unit. This cold fogging aerosol generator is equipped with two ULV nozzles which are movable in all directions. In normal, non-windy conditions, a fogging height of 20-30m is reached and in indoor greenhouses, a fogging width of 50+ meter is achieved!



It's no wonder we are seeing a worldwide agricultural and horticultural trend of converting to simpler and more effective fogging methods... with the help of our latest pulsFOG innovation, the TracFOG. Contact us today to learn more information on how your indoor greenhouse or outdoor plantation can benefit from TracFOG or many of our other advanced products.
