HOW MOBILE ROBOTS OUTPERFORM CONVENTIONAL AUTOMATION IN VERTICAL FARMS

At Seasony we believe recent years have shown that over-automated CAPEX intensive farms are not the way forward. Instead of elevator systems, conveyer belts and rails, we believe there is a more flexible and modular approach to automation for many. A solution that allow growers the benefits of automation without the up-front capital and technology lock-in of conventional automation solutions. In this whitepaper we share our point of view on why mobile robotics outperform conventional automation on a number of areas – and how Seasony is part of the next wave of vertical farm automation.

THE KEY TO A THRIVING GREENHOUSE - 8 STEPS TO COMMERCIAL GREENHOUSE ROOFTOP CLEANING

Commercial greenhouses play a vital role in modern agriculture, allowing farmers to grow fresh and nutritious produce year-round. To ensure the best possible growth and productivity of crops, proper maintenance of a greenhouse is of paramount importance. Among the essential maintenance tasks, regular roof cleaning stands out as a crucial practice that directly impacts plant health and overall greenhouse performance. In this comprehensive guide, we will delve into the best practices for proper commercial greenhouse roof cleaning, emphasizing safety, efficiency, and environmental responsibility.

CLONE NUTRIENT TREATMENT STUDIES DURING ROOT PROPAGATION ON VARIOUS STRAINS OF CANNABIS SATIVA

Here the authors present findings from their study involving six different nutrient treatments applied during the cloning cycle for approximately 500 plants. This paper focuses on the observed benefits in this study involving the use of an amino acid and salt solution using food-grade ELMNTs.

CANNABIS RISK MANAGEMENT GUIDE

Cannabis is a rapidly evolving space, yet, regulations change almost daily, often clashing at the federal and state level. Keeping pace with the growing industry demand is challenging enough, let alone maintaining professional expansion goals. Cannabis companies need multifaceted risk management support as tough as they are. Download this Cannabis Risk Management Guide to help you better manage the exposures along your operation’s development journey, such as licensing, non-compliance, property, casualty, and professional liability risks.

INNOVATIVE LED LIGHTING DRIVER STRATEGIES FOR VERTICAL FARMING

This study investigates various LED driver strategies for vertical farming and their impact on reliability, maintenance, thermal management, and cost. Key findings suggest that remote driver configurations and centralized remote DC driver systems offer the greatest benefits to the CEA farm.

AUTOMATING SIMPLE TASKS USING SENSORS

The concept of automation invites thoughts of robots operating along a line of conveyor belts, working in concert to build parts. Sensors monitor the position of these components and communicate this into a controller. The controller sends commands to the robot to grab the part and perform the next function until a product is assembled. While this scenario exists, it represents the highest end of automation technology working to perform complex tasks. Automation can be integrated into nearly every operation. It just requires analysis to discover which functions are repetitive and cumbersome. This paper will help explore these operations and describe how automation can be used to manage simple tasks, reduce operating costs and save money.

TRANSFORMING ROBOTICS - HOW 3DEXPERIENCE ON THE CLOUD IS EMPOWERING STARTUPS

Developing innovative robots is a challenging but rewarding field that requires a combination of technical skills and creative ideas. The goal of these designs is to create robots that are able to perform tasks efficiently and effectively, with a focus on increasing productivity and reducing costs. We know that by designing and engineering robots that are able to adapt to changing environments and to handle complex tasks, we can stay ahead of the curve and remain competitive. But robot development comes with its own set of challenges; limited budgets, lack of manufacturing capabilities, teams that aren’t large enough to spare time for innovation, and so on. How can robotics startups overcome these challenges and stay ahead of the competition?

WHY LIGHTING TECHNOLOGY GROWTH COSTS GREENHOUSES LESS

One of the largest reoccurring expenses growers are faced with is the ever-increasing cost of energy. This impact has led many growers to consider a transition to solid-state (LED) lighting to reduce energy consumption and lower costs. This white paper explores how greenhouse budgets benefit in multiple ways from replacing HPS with LED. Check it out to begin calculating the potential ROI your operation could gain from an LED lighting system.
