Horticultural Farm Rath

After Gartenbau Rath had already used several Visser products for automation, it was decided to optimize the existing machinery by adding the potting machines TM 2400E and TM 2400DR, two bale breakers BZ 6160 and the pot destacker Potjet 2 from Mayer. 

• The Mayer TM 2400E is characterized not only by the wide range of pot sizes that can be used, but also by its peak output of up to 4,000 pots per hour.
• Thanks to a constantly centred and exact planting hole drilling, the TM 2400DR creates perfect conditions for consistently favourable cultivation conditions and constant plant quality – and this at up to 7,000 pots/h. 
• The Mayer BZ 6160 processes big-bales up to 2.7 m and its particularly ergonomic design allows for easy handling.
• The Mayer pot destacker Potjet 2, which has been newly integrated into the workflow, allows the individual pots to be selected and controlled via touchscreen operation. Despite a wide range of pot sizes, Gartenbau Rath is now able to change the pot sizes without high set-up times. Thanks to the sophisticated control system of the Potjet 2, up to 1,000 different pot sizes and manufacturers can be stored and recalled. 
• In addition, the Domino printer Ax350i was integrated on site. The powerful and reliable Ax350i allows printing logos and plant passes on the planted pots, at the highest speed.

The complete automation of the potting process with products from Mayer, Visser and Domino guarantees efficiency as well as the best and consistent plant quality.
