Sylva Nurseries: Grading machine for forest and hedging plants

More than 25 million plants were graded during 2019, 2020 and 2021. This helped the company’s performance through increased professional efficiency.

The machine had to be made very durable. The products are very difficult to automatise as there is a lot of ground, leaves and humidity so all machinery parts had to be protected from the products.

As a lot of unexperienced young people work in the company, the vision and detection of quality had to be developed to grade a wide variety of plants.
