The Tree Transplanter Basic is a compact and efficient machine that automates the essential steps of the tree potting process, using our patented technologies. While both pot and tree/shrub placement are done manually, the system takes over with pre-filling, final filling, and compacting, reducing labor requirements by 2-3 operators. Ideal for nurseries seeking a reliable and cost-effective solution to improve speed and consistency in potting operations.
Automated Filling & Compacting
Best for open bags
Compact & User-Friendly Design
Ideal Entry-Level Solution
HOW IT WORKS
Pot/bag Placement
The operator places an empty pot or bag in position.
Pre-filling
The machine pre-fills the container to create a stable base.
Tree/shrub Input
The operator places the tree or shrub, and the machine fills and compacts substrate around the root ball.
Make Potting Easier With Tree Transplanter Basic
Simplify Potting Tasks
Automates essential steps like filling and compacting, reducing manual workload.
Consistent Potting Quality
Ensures uniform results for stable tree growth and professional presentation.
Low Labor Dependence
One operator can manage the process, helping to reduce staffing needs.
Compact & Reliable Design
Small footprint, solid performance, built for daily use with minimal maintenance.
Simple and Accessible Potting
Efficiency: Automated filling and compacting increase speed and reduce manual work.
Capacity: Up to 2-3 trees per minute, depending on application.
Flexibility: Suitable for pots and bags (10L-100L) across different nursery setups.
Simplicity: Manual placement keeps operation straightforward and accessible.
The Tree Transplanter Basic is designed to simplify essential potting tasks in a structured and efficient workflow. Pre-filling and compacting are automated, while manual tree insertion ensures controlled placement and flexibility in operation. The system is easy to operate with preset configurations and requires minimal maintenance, making it suitable for daily use in nursery environments. Its compact design allows it to fit easily into existing workflows, providing an accessible entry into potting mechanization.
The Tree Transplanter Basic 2.0 builds on the proven, patented technology of the Basic. Integrated options such as bark application, watering, and outfeed handling make the potting process more complete and consistent. By combining these steps into one system, manual handling is reduced, lowering labor requirements by 3-4 operators, while improving overall efficiency without increasing complexity.
Automatic bark application
Integrated watering after potting
Better process flow from filling to outfeed
Same intuitive operation as the Basic 1.0
HOW IT WORKS
Pot Placement
The operator places an empty pot or bag in position.
Pre-filling
The machine pre-fills the container to create a stable base.
Tree/Shrub Input
The operator places the tree or shrub, and the machine fills and compacts substrate around the root ball.
Optional bark and water adding
Optionally, the machine adds water and applies a layer of bark to complete the pot.
Integrated Options for Better Workflow
Consistent Finishing Quality
Ensures each pot is finished uniformly for a clean and professional result.
Improved flexibility
Well suited for both trees and shrubs, and optimised for use with closed-top grow bags and various container types.
Improved Process Control
Enables precise control over filling and compacting for consistent and repeatable results.
Outfeed Conveyor Option
Moves finished pots away efficiently, improving overall workflow and reducing handling.
More Control and Flexibility in Potting
Control: Servo-driven operation enables precise filling and compacting.
Flexibility: Suitable for trees and shrubs, with strong performance in Closed-top grow bags and various container types (10L-100L).
Functionality: Integrated options such as watering, bark application and outfeed improve the overall process.
Capacity: Efficient processing with quick changeover between sizes
The Tree Transplanter Basic 2.0 is designed for nurseries that require more control in their potting process while maintaining flexibility.
Its intuitive control system combines simple operation with advanced settings, allowing operators to quickly adapt the machine to different conditions and container sizes.
The compact and accessible design makes it easy to integrate into existing workflows, while ensuring reliable performance in daily operation.
Fast changeovers and a wide container range allow the system to adapt efficiently to varying production needs.
Ideal for nurseries taking their first step towards automated potting.
