Labour is a major challenge for most quite a little flora grower . Fortunately , invention in gardening does not stand still . WPS take Jelle Strijbis , film director of SV.CO , what his challenge is in the playing area of mechanization . With a WPS organization at three position , from Vision sorting to the SmartFlo transporter swath , this company helps to create optimal workings condition . This way SV.CO can deliver more industrial plant without employees working extra time .
" When we amount to this location on the Kreekrug 8 years ago , we were looking for a way to adjust the glasshouse . look at into account the soft soil , the possibilities were modified . In increase , the economical crisis limit our scope for investment , so we wanted to set about on a small musical scale . We chose WPS because the SmartFlo organization offer a lot of tractableness in combining with a heritage floor . Now that the greenhouse has been completely filled with 23 cm pots for years , we are really stool the most of it and the Decramec expanding and lodge machines integrated in WPS SmartFlo make employment done with your hands minimum . "
Jelle agrees with hands - free growing : " We still make investment that we ante up back , so we are always working on automation . We require to lay aside 5 % on labour each year and that is necessary to realise our maturation ambitiousness . With the time that remains , we are already working on the next automation measure . This never hold back , especially with the 35 million plants we develop every class . "
More efficient plant processing through workstations"Next summer , WPS will expand the delivery fender , install an extra Vision camera and order software at the Burgerdijkseweg location . Our manual orders will then be sent from the buff to the new workstations by the sorting scheme ’s club computer software . This makes it easier to process social club . Moreover , this scheme enables us to process the plants more expeditiously , so that we can be ready on time even on bloom Clarence Shepard Day Jr. . "
Time for fun things"What do I do when I really have time to dispense with ? I like to go out with my family . To the celluloid or somewhere for coffee . I also do sport in my unembellished time and wish to watch football . I also like to make time for inhalation from fellow growers . Because even with different products , pot sizes or processes , I find it cool to see how mechanization act differently in every glasshouse . This gives me fresh theme of how thing can perhaps work even better in our own garden . My tip for fellow growers is therefore : look for each other , share knowledge and experiences and be inspire .
