High-Efficiency Greenhouse Collaborative Robot

Horticultural automation solutions represent a new generation of collaborative robots designed to optimize greenhouse processes. These systems integrate precision, speed, and ease of use to meet the needs of modern floriculture and nursery businesses.

System operation

The robot replaces repetitive manual tasks thanks to Pick & Place technology, reaching up to 2,400 cycles per hour. It is managed via an intuitive touch interface and is easily relocatable within the greenhouse to adapt to different workflows.

Key advantages

  • High productivity: Reaches 2,400 picks per hour, ensuring a constant speed superior to manual labor.
  • Cost reduction: Automates repetitive operations, slashing management expenses and addressing personnel shortages.
  • Certified safety: The lightweight and padded design allows it to work alongside operators without the need for protective barriers.
  • Rapid Integration: Easily fits into new or existing production lines with simple and immediate programming.
  • Total mobility: The structure is designed to be moved easily, adapting flexibly to dynamic layouts.
  • Quality and scalability: Ensures crop uniformity and sustainable production growth with low entry costs.

Robot dimensions (Operating footprint)

  • Maximum Height: 1,200 mm (approx. 47 in)
  • Width: 800 mm (approx. 32 in)
  • Depth: 550 mm (approx. 22 in)


Technical Note: The measurements provided above are indicative and may vary depending on the specific configuration or the final application of the robot (application dependent).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Everything you need to know about the Collaborative Robot for Greenhouses

1. Is it cost-effective for small to medium nurseries, or only for industrial giants?

It is especially cost-effective for small and medium-sized nurseries, which are our primary target market. The robot is among the most affordable on the market; while it may not have the absolute highest hourly speed, its modular design allows you to run multiple units side-by-side with a low, accessible entry cost compared to large-scale industrial systems offered by competitors.

2. How long does it take for a standard worker to learn how to operate it?

Getting started with basic operation takes only a few hours, as the machine comes pre-configured for a wide range of plant varieties. For programming new species, a brief training session is provided: the system operates via an intuitive guided wizard on a tablet, requires no coding skills, and can be mastered in just a few hours or, at most, a couple of days.

3. How many workers are needed to run or supervise the robot?

Only one operator is needed for the entire line. Traditional setups usually require 2–3 transplanting workers plus one dedicated to the potting machine. With the cobot, the potting machine operator can oversee the robot simultaneously, only carrying out periodic tasks such as loading trays every 10–20 minutes, visual quality checks, and filling any empty pots or missing seedlings.

4. Does it work in traditional or tunnel greenhouses, or does it require a high-tech facility?

It works in any type of greenhouse. The machine is not placed inside the plant growth or cultivation area; instead, it operates in the standard staging and working space that nurseries already dedicate to transplanting activities.

5. Do we need to renovate the greenhouse or repave the floor to install the robot?

No. Nurseries already have the necessary flooring and clearance for their transplanting line: the robot is simply integrated directly into your existing setup without requiring any structural changes.

6. Can mud, dust, or water condensation cause operational issues?

No. The engineering is specifically tailored for humid environments, water splashes (some clients also run belt irrigation), and dust. The pneumatic grippers are equipped with a dedicated air-filtration system to prevent debris and particles from affecting performance.

7. If I grow many diverse crop varieties instead of a single monoculture, is the robot still effective?

Yes, it supports multiple recipe profiles and adapts smoothly to various crops. Unlike needle gripper systems that risk tearing roots or damaging delicate bulbs (such as cyclamens), it uses soft, interchangeable pneumatic grippers tailored specifically to the crop specifications requested by the client.

8. Does this robot consume a lot of electricity?

Energy consumption is very low. It is engineered to require less power than competing machinery because it relies on fewer motorized electrical actuators. The grippers are pneumatic and air-driven via compressor (exact consumption figures and technical specifications are detailed in the technical manual).

9. Is it a single-task machine, or can it perform other duties besides transplanting?

It is currently optimized and certified specifically for transplanting due to occupational safety standards. While the hardware can physically handle additional tasks (such as produce packaging or sorting), each new application must be custom-defined, tested, and certified before commissioning.

10. What is the difference between an automated greenhouse and a greenhouse robot?

An automated greenhouse (such as a vertical farm) is a complete, self-contained facility engineered from scratch with substantial capital investment. Our collaborative robot is a modular, flexible unit that integrates into existing commercial greenhouses to optimize individual processes without redesigning your whole infrastructure.

11. Are there safety hazards for operators working close to the robot?

As a collaborative robot (cobot), it complies with stringent safety regulations and operates at torque-monitored, safe speeds designed for human proximity. It can work side-by-side with your staff or be installed inside a fenced robotic cell if your goal is full end-to-end automation.

12. Are there subsidies or government grants available to offset the investment?

Yes, numerous incentive programs are available, including Smart Agriculture / Industry 4.0 schemes and regional Rural Development Programs (RDP/CAP). Many of these programs offer non-repayable grants covering up to 80% of the cost. Organizzazione Orlandelli provides itemized quotes and compliant technical documentation to streamline your grant application.

13. Can it identify whether a plant is diseased or ready for processing?

Yes, it can. While not a standard baseline feature on every unit, adding machine vision cameras and AI inspection software for plant health monitoring or anomaly detection is an optional module that can be custom-integrated upon request.
