MechaTronix launches new Coolstack grow light for high wire crops

In the ever-evolving landscape of greenhouse agriculture, MechaTronix takes a bold step forward by introducing an exciting innovation to their existing Coolstack Dynamic Growlights.

The optimal approach in the lighting season 2023-2024 was already proven to be a dynamic light strategy in high-wire crops.

Most growers have already invested in LED grow lights that can perform dynamic light strategies. These growlights allow crop steering by the daily light integral (DLI) and adjust the light spectrum according to the crop’s needs and/or the available radiation in the greenhouse.

Now, MechaTronix goes to the next level in this strategy by adopting the new Osram OSCONIQ® P3737 LEDs in its Coolstack Dynamic Growlights. These LEDs are paired with completely redesigned optics tailored for high-wire crops like tomatoes and cucumbers.

This results in an ultra-high efficacy of over 3.8 µmol per joule combined with a unique light spreading and depth into the crop. This new development also serves as the ideal solution for lower greenhouses with limited space from trellis to crop to implement a full LED light setup.

“Our commitment to innovation drives us to continuously push boundaries,” says Koen Vangorp, CEO at MechaTronix, “by providing growers with the tools to maximise yields and efficiency.”

With its headquarters in The Netherlands, production facilities in The Netherlands and Canada, and R&D hubs in New Taipei and Kaohsiung, Taiwan, it specialises in advanced LED grow lights. As part of the 8 Lakes group, with headquarters in Breda, The Netherlands, the company combines Asian technology and manufacturing with the cores and values of the Western European market.
