Engineering Your Success
in Logistics
When producing a product, at a certain point, this specific product needs to be moved through an organisation, stored in a warehouse, but it
also needs to be retained easily once positioned at its location. Either goods need to be sorted or picked from a warehouse for further transport, or they need to be available for an internal process. These processes all need to occur fast, reliable and simple.
Viscon Logistics provides smart and efficient solutions in both large and average sized companies. We can design a cost efficient process for
storing products, sorting products and order picking products.
Viscon Logistics can design a solution in an existing warehouse or can design an entirely new company. Our success engineers can consult
and provide an optimal logistic flow. We will take care of the total project management from concept to commissioning product lines, so
customers can focus on the quality of their products.
Viscon is able to design suitable carriers for every type of product, including crates, boxes, pallets and racks. This opens up opportunities for

Engineering Your Success
in Poultry Health
Viscon Group has been aiming to take the lead in innovative techniques in hatchery automation since the end of the last century. This resulted
in the establishment of our company ‘Vinovo’. This company provides the latest revolutionary techniques on hatchery automation. Vinovo
introduces the Select Line, a product line that revolutionises the process of egg handling in the transfer area of a hatchery. The Select Line
consists of three innovative machines: the Vinovo Live Embryo Detection, the Vinovo Select Inject and the Vinovo Select Transfer.
The Vinovo Live Embryo Detection accurately indicates every egg with a living embryo by using a patented heart beat sensor. The eggs
without a living embryo are classified as infertile, early dead, or late dead embryos. Based on this information only the living eggs are
selectively handled during vaccination and transfer, leaving the unwanted eggs untouched for further processing in a separate waste room.
This creates a more hygienic environment in the transfer area and helps prevent bacterial contamination.
The next step in the Select Line is in-ovo vaccination. The Vinovo Select Inject enhances the accuracy of injection and delivery of the correct
vaccine dose in the proper egg compartment by re-positioning only “the living eggs” in perfect perpendicular position under the injection
tooling. Also this reduces the risk of damage to eggs & embryos in case eggs would be positioned obliquely in the setter tray.
Directly after injection the Vinovo Select Transfer unit only transfers the selected eggs to the hatcher baskets by use of a patented gripper
instead of traditional vacuum naps. This prevents negative-pressure inside the eggs and further reduces the risk of cross contamination.
Vinovo supplies the unique Select Line, which creates a healthier environment, better hygiene and more efficient vaccination results.
Engineering Your Success
in Fresh Produce
Viscon Fresh Produce specializes in the delicate care of tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, potatoes, onions, mushrooms, soft fruit and stone fruit.
Packing areas can be designed by Viscon to process fresh produce with great care and optimal efficiency. Our passion and expertise is to create
a high quality premium packed product for the growers customer.
Our team of successful engineers can create simple solutions for the most complex processes through their many years of experience in both
smaller projects and the largest projects in the world. Our unique standard product range and our comprehensive knowledge of the sector
enables us to create affordable and smart designs.
Within the Fresh Produce industry, accuracy and focus are highly important within the handling process. The Fresh Produce needs to be
harvested with care but even more importantly; it needs to be handled with great care during further processes. This is one of the reasons
why the handling process needs to be developed and automated as precisely and efficiently as possible. Viscon can supply all of the growers
needs with their in-house development and in–house production of both standard and custom-made machinery.
We develop, produce, install and service high quality machinery for harvesting, handling, grading, weighing, warehousing and packing Fresh
Produce. Together with our Logistic Control company we can also provide all software, necessary to control the entire process.
This software also provides tracking and tracing data and applications to enhance Food Safety worldwide.
Engineering Your Success
in Hydroponics
Viscon Hydroponics is a sustainable cultivation system where the growth of crops ensures an increase in production capacity and a decrease
in production costs. Due to a more efficient use of the available growing space and automation simplification of a part of the labour, the investment in Hydroponics pays itself back within a few years.
Unique to the Hydroponics system is the possibility to adjust the crop spacing multiple times during the cultivation without disrupting the
growth. The fact that it is possible to increase production by 100% without increasing the production area is partly realized because of this
spacing.
Beside the ability to space, crops are growing faster using Hydroponics. First because of light reflection and secondly because of the microclimate around the leaves; this microclimate is dry and clean which reduces fungal growth and experiences so far has learned that very little
treatment is required. Last but not least, the innovative closed system ensures a constant availability and no losses of water, oxygen and
nutrients. With this microclimate and closed growing system, plants can grow, basically ‘on their own’. With this system the grower will have
simple control over crops and will only, infrequently, have to monitor/test water and basic climate conditions that will deliver perfect, clean
and delicious lettuce.
Engineering Your Success
in Logistics Control
Viscon Logistics Control is the one company in the Viscon Group that is 100% about software. A 100% focus on intelligent software designs to
connect our equipment to our customers resource planning software.
The Viscon Logistics Control (VLC) software manages material handling processes and communicates with our customers’ daily management.
VLC prioritizes appointed products, ensures traceability and controls warehouses. It can also collect, manage and store the data coming from
the material handling processes for re-use or track & trace purposes.
The development and maintenance of Viscon Logistics Control is done by Viscons own team of dedicated professionals, therefore the system
can be customized to customers plans and wishes. The VLC software can seamlessly be connected to the customers already existing software,
or the software can be operated as a stand-alone system. VLC service is 24/7 available to ensure a continues process with as little downtime
as possible.
When using the Viscon Logistics Control system, the maximum will be gained from the Viscon material handling solutions, whereby the
capacity, possibilities and flexibility of the systems will significantly increase. This results in an optimal production process.
