Increasing yields from the land while minimising cost and environmental impact. Vlukon works closely with well-known manufacturers of agricultural machinery, for example hay rakes, seeders and harvesters. Durability and ease of assembly are priorities in our product development.
Much of our work here is custom: medium series, fast product development, and rims, Wheel Systems and OEM design-in combined.
Horticulture and greenhouse
In the Netherlands about 10,000 ha of greenhouses grow flowers and vegetables under controlled conditions. Vlukon and Konijnenburg BV supply wheels and castors for a good logistics flow:
- Castors for AGVs in highly automated greenhouses
- Wheels for harvest carts
- Flower-auction swivel castors
- Danish container swivel castors
Robots for agriculture and horticulture
Field and greenhouse robots need reliable wheels for varied terrain. Vlukon delivers samples and small batches of custom wheels to developers of agricultural technology, so the machine gets the best possible components from the first prototype.
