Automate plant transplanting with robots

4XROBOTS' delta collaborative robots bring speed, precision, and consistency to plant transplanting. Collaborative robots (cobots) are built with safety in mind and intelligent sensors that stop movement instantly if contact is detected enabling your team to work safely alongside the robot. Our cobot handle seedlings gently while maximizing throughput, making them perfect for horticulture operations and plant growers scaling up production.

Why manual transplanting holds you back

Manual transplanting is labor-intensive, slow, and error-prone — limiting your ability to scale efficiently or meet demand.

Common challenges with manual transplanting include: 

  • Inconsistent seedling depth and spacing

  • Repetitive strain and labor fatigue

  • Bottlenecks in scaling plant propagation

How 4XROBOTS improves transplanting

4XROBOTS’ cobots offer reliable, fast robotic and automatic transplanting. This means no fatigue, misalignment, or human error.

  • Precise seedling placement at high speed

  • Gentle handling preserves plant quality

  • Easy to configure for different tray or pot formats

What is robotic transplanting?

Robotic transplanting uses delta cobots with pick & place capabilities to move young plants from germination trays into pots or larger formats. This process is ideal for horticulture operations and it:

  • Improves plant consistency and survival

  • Reduces manual labor and associated errors

  • Enables scalable, repeatable transplanting processes
