Energy curtains are an important element of modern greenhouse and glasshouse production. They regulate the amount of light, temperature and retain heat at night, thereby creating stable conditions for plant growth and reducing energy consumption and heating costs.
Since light conditions are constantly changing, manually controlling curtains is often inefficient and demanding. That's why automated systems are increasingly being used that effectively adapt conditions to the needs of plants.
The automated greenhouse shading system enables precise light control and maximum energy efficiency of the curtains. It automatically opens and closes the curtains depending on the light intensity, temperature, day or night, and the selected summer or winter operating mode.
Thanks to reliable industrial computers from a Japanese manufacturer and precise sensors, the system adapts conditions to the needs of the plants, reduces energy consumption and eliminates the need for manual control.
Blackout is especially important for plants that require shorter day lengths, such as chrysanthemums, gerberas and similar crops. Curtains are mounted above the plants and to the side, allowing the greenhouse to be completely darkened when needed.
The dimming system gives growers precise control over day length, independent of natural light changes, ensuring stable and predictable production throughout the year.
In addition to the standard shading system, automatic dimming has been developed, which allows precise control of the length of day and night inside the greenhouse. This technology is especially important for plants such as chrysanthemums, which require precisely defined light cycles for proper flowering.
The system automatically darkens the greenhouse at pre-defined times, ensuring plants have optimal light and dark periods. This way, growers can easily maintain ideal growing and flowering conditions, regardless of natural changes in day length throughout the year.
