Pipp Horticulture worked with Sozo to implement multi-level Mobile Vertical Racking Systems that allowed them to create 70% more canopy space, totaling 24,824 sq. ft.

Implementing Multi-Level Mobile Vertical Racking Systems

Case Study from | Pipp Horticulture

CASE STUDY

Sozo has a world-class operational facility with 40+ cultivars, leading genetics, and consistently high total cannabinoids and terpenoids. Sozo is committed to using technology, methods, and tools that inspire innovation and maximize sustainability.

 

ABOUT SOZO

Sozo cultivates, processes (concentrate), and sells quality cannabis products in stores they feel good about. No shortcuts here. They believe plants grown with care produce better outcomes. Whether it’s trichome-encrusted flower or top-quality concentrates, the better the input, the better the output. Each step of their cultivation process comes with a deep sense of care. From the moment seeds are planted, they nurture cultivars to retain full terpene and cannabinoid expression.

PLANNING

Pipp’s team of in-house designers, engineers, and experienced cultivation experts designed a mobile cultivation system that integrated with the other components necessary for successful operation, such as lighting, airflow, irrigation, and drainage systems. All of these tools help Sozo ensure that they are producing the highest quality products possible for their customers.

THE SOLUTION

Pipp Horticulture worked with Sozo to implement multi-level Mobile Vertical Racking Systems that allowed them to create 70% more canopy space, totaling 24,824 sq. ft. in their Detroit cultivation facility. This, along with additional grow solutions such as the ELEVATE™ Platform System, allowed Sozo to greatly improve their workflows and increase their overall output per square footage.

TOOLS FOR SUCCESS

To further improve the efficiency of their grow operation, Sozo added Pipp’s revolutionary ELEVATE™ Platform System, which allows growers to safely access plants on the upper level. They also used products such as ABS Combination Grow Trays and Drying Carts/Racks to allow them to easily access, transport, and care for the plants.

The ERT150 - Dorner’s Next Evolution of Edge Roller Technology Conveyors

The ERT150 - Dorner's Next Evolution of Edge Roller Technology Conveyors

The next evolution in Dorner's Edge Roller Technology conveyor platform, the ERT®150, is ideal for small and light-load assembly automation, as well as medical and medical-device assembly application. The ERT platform is the only pallet conveyor of its kind available with an ISO Standard Class 4 rating for cleanroom applications. Earning the ISO Standard 14644-1 Class 4 rating means Dorner's ERT150 will conform and not contribute to the contamination of cleanrooms to those standards. As implied by its name, the ERT150 (Edge Roller Technology) uses rollers to move pallets through the conveyor smoothly with no friction (a byproduct often seen in belt-driven platforms). The conveyor's open design eliminates concerns of small parts or screws dropping into rollers and causing conveyor damage or jamming. The ERT150 is suited to operate in cleanroom environments requiring a pallet handling conveyor. It is capable of zoning for no or low-back pressure accumulation and is ideal for automation assembly applications within industries including medical devices, electronics, consumer goods among others.
