Automating Material Transport for Efficiency & Precision
Substrate elevators are a key part of our automated production system, eliminating the need for manual lifting and transport of heavy materials. These speed-controlled conveyors streamline the movement of raw and hydrated substrate between machines, keeping production efficient, consistent, and contamination-free.
We require three substrate elevators:
- One large 4m elevator to transport dry raw materials into the ribbon mixer for hydration and mixing.
- Two smaller elevators to transfer hydrated substrate from the ribbon mixer to the automated bagging machines.
These low-maintenance, simple-to-operate machines reduce labour, prevent unnecessary handling, and ensure a smooth, automated workflow.
Why These Machines are Essential
Eliminates Heavy Lifting – Moves large volumes of substrate automatically, reducing labour demands.
Optimises Workflow – Ensures a steady, controlled feed of raw and mixed materials, keeping production running efficiently.
Speed-Controlled for Precision – Adjustable speed allows for seamless integration into our production process.
Reduces Waste & Contamination – Direct transport from machine to machine minimises spills and contamination risks.
Low Maintenance & Simple Operation – Few moving parts make these elevators reliable, durable, and easy to maintain.
The Role of the Substrate Elevators in Our Facility
The 4m Elevator – Moves dry raw materials into the ribbon mixer for hydration and blending.
Two Smaller Elevators – Transfer hydrated substrate from the mixer to the bagging machines, ensuring a steady, uniform feed.
Supports a Fully Automated System – Keeps machines stationary, preventing unnecessary handling and improving hygiene.

Why We Need Funding for This Equipment
These elevators remove one of the most time-consuming and labour-intensive tasks in mushroom cultivation – transporting heavy materials between machines. By investing in this system, we increase efficiency, reduce strain on workers, and maintain a cleaner, more sterile production environment.
