Innovate UK backs collaborative project linking AI with automation & control to improve indoor farming sustainability
The project's core objective is to tackle the inefficiencies prevalent in TCEA by leveraging innovative technologies and methodologies - thereby improving energy efficiency.
Horticulture LEDs and Photophyll™ Select LED
Cree LED is the first LED supplier to fully characterize products in horticulture metrics, such as PPF and Red PPF %, instead of lighting metrics, such as CCT and CRI.
Integrating Renewable Energy in Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA)
The energy demands of indoor farming can be substantial, leading to increased greenhouse gas emissions and environmental strain. Enter renewable energy - a game-changing approach to powering CEA systems while reducing their carbon footprint.

X-Rail: reliability and resistance to environmental impurities
Rollon's X-Rail linear rails are a reliable solution in environments susceptible to impurities. Equipped with rolling elements with shaped and flat raceways, they are available in several versions: galvanized, nitrided or stainless-steel sheet metal. The latter version ensures total corrosion resistance, which is critical for hostile environments such as those found in vertical farming.
Particularly innovative is the T + U configuration of the X-Rail linear rails, which can compensate for the parallelism errors of mounting surfaces. This simplifies installation and reduces costs.
