Central leaf discharge system

The central leaf discharge system is a system that is used for the disposal of leaves. With this automated system you can decrease the volume of leaves and transport it to the containers outside. There are different degrees of automation: the automation can start in the greenhouse, or it can start in the packing hall.

• Fully automated: the central leaf discharge system operates in combination with the Qii-Drive Deleaf or the Power Bee AGV which pulls the Bo Cart harvesting carts with leaf container. They drive automatically to and from the leaf discharge system, guided by an induction course.
• Semi-automated: The central leaf discharge system operates in combination with a hand-operated Power Bee which pulls the Bo Cart harvesting carts with leaf container. In this case, there will be a few metres of pipe rail in front of the pusher unit to guide the harvesting carts into the correct position.

A handling system is modular, always custom made: depending on the needs/desires of the customer and the available space in the packing hall. Together with the customer, Bogaerts greenhouse logistics always finds the best solution.

Container handling unit and shredder

The gripper lifts the leaf container from the carts and dumps the leaves into a shredder with helical screws that shreds the leaves.

Modular belt conveyors

The belt conveyors transport the leaves out of the corridor, and divides the leaves among one or two container lorries.
