Precise Work" in Greenhouses: How Does My Mini Excavator Achieve "No Seedling Damage, No Shed Damage?

Date: Aug 06, 2025

Work in greenhouses is most afraid of machines being "clumsy" — the ridge width is only 1 meter, and the shed height is less than 2.5 meters. A little carelessness will break flower branches and scratch the shed film. But I have used Mini Agricultural Engineering Excavator for three years and never had any accidents. The secrets lie in several details.

You must remember to "slow down a bit" during operation. When lifting the boom, keep an eye on the shed roof to ensure a distance of at least 30 cm; when moving the vehicle, first check the edge of the track and keep a 20 cm safety distance from the seedbed. Last time I dug a drainage ditch in a strawberry shed, the bucket of the Mini Agricultural Engineering Excavator "translated" close to the ground, and the 30 cm deep ditch was dug straight without damaging a single strawberry seedling nearby.

The "ground-hugging walking method" passed down by old farmers is very useful: let the bucket of the Mini Agricultural Engineering Excavator gently touch the ground, moving like "tiptoeing". The shaking of the machine body is reduced, so the shed film is not easy to be scratched by the wind brought up by the track. A flower farm used this method to renovate the greenhouse. The Mini Agricultural Engineering Excavator finished changing the soil in a 500-square-meter greenhouse in one day, with zero damage to one million pots of succulents.

To sum it up in a mnemonic: "Lower the arm without raising the head; look around when moving the vehicle; the bucket walks close to the ground; exert force a little slower." Mastering these, the Mini Agricultural Engineering Excavator is more flexible than manual work in the greenhouse — it can complete soil turning, ridge forming and ditch digging in one machine, with efficiency 5 times that of manual work.
