Block spacing machine

IDEAAL's block spacing machine eases the labour intensive work of raising young vegetable plants. Thanks to the deck of this machine, you can automate multiple operations, which improves working conditions and saves both time and manpower! 

This machine is suitable for loading rockwool blocks from a planting line and for transporting and unloading the blocks on concrete floors. This is done in different phases during the cultivation process. You start by loading the blocks from a planting line, after which you can place them side by side on the greenhouse floor. When the plants start to grow, the machine can pick up the blocks from the floor when they are still side-by-side and put them back on the floor spread out. This can be done in both length and width. 

The maximum spread width of the entire upper plateau is no less than 3.00 meters. Due to the scissor movement, the width distance between two rockwool blocks can vary from 0 centimeter to a maximum of 15 centimeters. The longitudinal distance between the rockwool blocks is freely adjustable from 0 centimeter to any desired distance. This way you can decide for yourself how you want to spread out your plants. 

The block spreading machine can place the blocks in one straight row along each other so that you can place the optimum amount of plants on the floor. However, the deck also has the so-called miter system, with which you can place them in a pattern. This way the plants can be equally distanced from each other, which allows your plants to grow optimally!
