The potting console offers enough space for up to 5 persons to pot or a transplanter. It includes 18 (Version M) / 22 (Version L) / 26 (Version XL) ‘VarioFix’ pot holders, the height and diameter of which can be quickly and easily set. The pot stability that this achieves allows continual working. The fixed pot support level means there is no need to adjust take-off conveyors.
The adjustability of the individual pot holders means they do not need to exchange for each pot size and thus saves their costly acquisition and space-consuming storage.
The exact pot track movement is guaranteed by a special, high-performance belt that is low-wear and low-maintenance. The pot holders that are fixed to this belt by force-locking are also supported in the outer track, thus preventing tipping. The speed is infinitely adjustable via a potentiometer, as with a chain elevator.
The ingenious curving of the switch cylinder guarantees a smooth drive without jolts. This retains the desired drill pattern, which is an important prerequisite for trouble-free working with transplanters and large plant root balls.
The unique 2-stage soil re-circulation protects the substrate structure and protects the machine from wear. The excess substrate at filling is fed directly back to the soil hopper after the drilling process and thus does not travel along the entire potting track.
