Efficient substrate management is crucial for ensuring high productivity levels in greenhouses and nurseries. However, attention is often focused on increasing work speed and the performance of the technologies used, overlooking another critical aspect: operational continuity which can be achieved by reducing interruptions and machine downtime.
The challenges of pressed peat
Systems that work with pressed peat, such as fillers, can quickly run out of substrate in the hoppers, especially during intensive operations or when processing specific seed trays. These challenges become more pronounced when the hopper has limited capacity, the operation requires large volumes of peat, or the big bale change is frequent.
Introducing an intermediate hopper is a strategic choice to address these challenges, ensuring a continuous flow of peat to the filling system and minimizing machine downtime. This innovation allows you to increase overall capacity, optimize operational times, and eliminate machine downtime.
