POT448: ITS ROLE AND DESIGN
POT448 is a 448-cell tray for the MINORU pot system. Its compact layout helps reduce onion nursery area. Y-shaped bottom slits drain excess water and let roots extend below the tray; opening flaps release seedlings during mechanical transplanting. The tray functions as part of the transplanting machine.
ⓘ
A dedicated system component. POT448 is not a universal plug tray. Use the tray and components specified for your selected sowing machine and transplanter; compatibility with other equipment must not be assumed.
THE MINORU APPROACH
WHY CHOOSE
MINORU?
MINORU offers machinery and materials for distinct jobs, from seeded-tray preparation and nursery raising to field planting. Consider how each component fits the work you need to mechanize.
Automated preparation of seeded trays.
OSE-12H brings tray feeding, bed-soil filling, sowing and covering into one process. It is designed to sow coated onion seeds individually into the tray cells.
Support for soil supply and tray handling.
LSPA-61 supplies potting soil to the sowing machine, while LSPA-82 stacks sown POT448 trays. MINORU recommends using both with OSE-12H to support the sowing operation.
Transplanters for different field layouts.
The four-row range includes OPD-4 for flat beds, OPT-40H for high beds, and OPKR-40 for mulched or open-field planting. Compare the intended application before selecting a model.
