Delta’s mobile plant-growing control system facilitates agricultural automation
Text by IABG 2021/02

Recently, Delta has worked with Grow Systems, a Singapore company that specializes in agricultural technology, and introduced a mobile plant-growing gully control system to a customer in New Zealand that implements automated plant-growing gully conveyance. The customer who supplies vegetables, salads and herbs for baby food used to spend much time sowing, inspecting and harvesting on their large farm grounds. Delta’s automated mobile gully control system advances plant growing by using self-developed products that save time, labor, and water for the customer.

Delta adopts the Human Machine Interface DOP-107EG Series to easily operate the mobile gully control system and uses the Advanced Slim PLC DVP-SE Series to control the movements of the system. The system runs based on the time intervals, speeds and directions configured. The water recycling mechanism makes good use of irrigation water. It consumes only 20% of the water used by conventional plant growing methods, and no wastewater is generated. The water recycling mechanism operates with the Compact Drive MS300 Series to adjust motor velocity and pump speed for optimal energy savings.
