Bishop-Wisecarver’s Linear Motion Systems Maximizing Performance in Field Robotics

How Bishop-Wisecarver offerings have found a home in field robotics applications

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) reports that yields of food from vertical farms average over 100x greater produce compared to traditional methods. The future of the farming industry is prime for new innovations and developments, specifically in the field robotics segment.

Enter organizations like Bishop-Wisecarver^®.

Linear robots tend to plants in vertical farming

Vertical farming has its own sets of challenges associated with crop tending, but an increase in automation and robot usage in the industry has seen promising results. For example, a combination of Bishop-Wisecarver offerings fit the linear farming mold and assist farmers in integral tasks to ensure their crops are growing consistently.

Precision agriculture requires systems with precision movement. The UtiliTrak^® Linear-Guide System excels in these environments because they can push aside dirt and other debris during operation, don't exhibit corrosion despite regularly being exposed to water and don't rely on parallelism during the installation to ensure accurate operation.

Watch Now

Along with UtiliTrak, Bishop-Wisecarver's DualVee^® Guide-Wheel and Track assembly and MadeWell^® Crowned-Roller assembly supplement automation deployments in mechanized greenhouse and other precision agriculture deployments. These products are the optimal choice for farmers or warehouse personnel to assemble themselves because they assemble into place with off-the-shelf fasteners and simple hand tools.

These Bishop-Wisecarver offerings are designed to withstand harsh environments with corrosion-resistant materials and require low maintenance because of their ability to easily wipe away debris, a consistent battle in vertical farming.
