End-to-End Automation

Written by Team GreenBroz | 03/23
To thrive in this industry, cannabis producers need to produce high-quality, distinctive products — while protecting their bottom lines.

 End-to-End Automation

 
The legal cannabis industry is blossoming. As one state after another legalizes and begins to regulate medical cannabis — and, often soon after, recreational cannabis — hundreds of cultivation facilities have sprung up around the U.S., giving customers more choices than ever.

Growing and harvesting cannabis can be expensive and labor-intensive. That’s why more and more marijuana industry players are turning to cannabis tech to help them automate their production processes.

End-to-end automation — cannabis tech that automates nearly every part of the harvesting and production process, minimizing human error and protecting the purity of cannabis — is revolutionizing the industry.

The Technology Behind GreenBroz Cannabis Harvesting Solutions

 
 
Sorting
Once cannabis flowers have been destemmed, they need to be sorted by size so they can be processed efficiently. The GreenBroz Sorter automates this process, eliminating a time-consuming step in your harvest. When cannabis is sorted faster, it can move through the process faster, again reducing the time your flower spends in a more varied, uncontrolled environment.

The GreenBroz Sorter is built from stainless steel and polyurethane, reducing the chances of contamination. The technology is designed to be intuitive while maintaining a number of customization options for users who want to control sizing and speed. To further increase throughput, GreenBroz just debuted a new rise conveyor which allows you to feed the sorter at even higher volumes, increasing the efficiency even further.

What sets our sorter apart most, though, is that we do not use the vibration method that can be harsh on cannabis flower. Instead, our technology sorts flower using a conveyer and band system. This results in a gentle handling function that maintains your product quality without compromising speed or accuracy.  
 
 

Dry Trimming

After cannabis has been destemmed, sorted, and dried, it’s time to trim the flowers to get them ready for your end-products. The GreenBroz Model M Dry Cannabis Trimmer (works great for hemp as well) is designed to mimic the act of hand-trimming a cannabis harvest while increasing the consistency and efficiency of the harvest process.

This cannabis trimmer is designed to be gentle, quiet, and as easy as possible to clean. Our patented blade design is built from surgical-grade stainless steel and allows the flower to roll gently inside, maintaining the potency, shape, and quality of your cannabis harvest.

As gentle as the Model M Dry Trimmer is, it can still process 8 to 12 pounds of cannabis per hour, conservatively.

To clean the cannabis trimmer, simply take apart the cutting chamber, blades, and exit door and clean them as desired. The control panel is outside the machine and the motor is sealed, allowing you to remove the control panel and wash down the machine without any further breakdown (yes that means the motor is washdown ready too).

This improved breakdown ability, in comparison to previous models, eliminates the problem of contaminants in hard-to-reach corners, which helps GreenBroz Model M users remain in compliance with local, state, or country regulations.

As proud as we are of the Model M Dry Trimmer, we’re thrilled to be bringing Model Z cannabis trimmer to market later in 2021.
