The Gamechanger A-Z
The Gamechanger A-Z
The Gamechanger has been designed to be the A to Z for harvesting mushrooms in an existing or standard mushroom farm.
We have listed a summary of the A to Z benefits below:
a) This is a tried and tested solution that has been operational in many farms world-wide.
b) The machine and its lifts is the only harvesting solution that will work in existing farm infrastructure with minimal or no alterations. It has the potential to achieve efficiencies to picking while adding decades of useful life onto an existing farm.
c) The Gamechanger range of products can begin operation within hours of landing on a customer’s farm.
d) Using the Gamechanger allows pickers to pick with 2 hands
e) A full farm implementation could be phased in over a short or long time, depending on the timescale the mushroom producer requires, dictated by finances or labour considerations
f) The Gamechanger has a much lower cost than any of the other largescale solutions.
g) We know that with the Gamechanger a quick Return of Investment (ROI) is possible if used correctly compared to other larger systems.
h) Mushroom Producers who purchase the Gamechanger are not committed to a big spend and thus have dramatically reduced risk.
i) We have the only one-person operated mushroom harvesting aid in which the picker is accountable for their complete production and the production data is captured by the software.
j) The Gamechanger is the only harvesting aid that prioritises the mushroom presentation in the selected packaging, choosing to accurately place the mushrooms, instead of dropping mushrooms randomly from height which may cause damage and loss of presentation.
k) The Gamechanger will cater for basically any type or size of punnet and the Gamechanger Pro will handle individual punnets (tills), trays, boxes, and punnets arranged within trays. The ability to flexibly handle numerous container types and sizes is vital to ensure best presentation of the mushrooms.
l) The software controlling the Gamechanger is fully functional allowing control of every aspect of the machine and it can be easily altered on-site.
m) We have concentrated on the usability of the machine for pickers of all nationalities and abilities with big buttons and minimal user interaction.
n) The ability of the Gamechanger to capture the data allows complete analysis of the picking data. This allows the producer to analyse performance, evaluate yield and enable the correct picking strategies over time.
o) The accurate weighing will save pickers time, reduce time in the packhouse check-weighing, eliminate further handling of mushrooms in the packhouse as well as providing accurate information on the picking rates.
p) The machine is fully multi-lingual. The operational language will show all text in the required language and all notifications/warnings will be spoken in the required language.
q) With the ability of the machine to be quickly moved about from one harvesting room to another, or from one side of shelving to the other, we can maximise the use of the asset. Increasing the utilisation of the Gamechanger is important.
r) With the accurate cutting of stalks, we can maximise yield while also reducing waste.
s) The implementation of crop grazing is much easier using the Gamechangers integrated Lift system which can provide continuous horizontal movement.
t) As cleaning can be regarded as a picking cost, we have minimised cleaning time and made it as easy as possible to do.
u) The minimum maintenance results in a low cost of ownership.
v) Upgrades and Support can be provided remotely for each machine.
w) The team at The Mushroom Machine Company can provide a Complete Solution. We have the knowledge and can provide the specific consultancy required to achieve maximum results with the implementation.
x) With the Mushroom Machine Company there is more than one option. We have the Gamechanger, Gamechanger Pro, Gamechanger Lite and various accessories to allow producers to get the best results for their farms.
y) The machines are available to be despatched within weeks from date of order.
z) The Gamechanger can now be utilised in a Floor Supported Lift which can be used in aisles with very little space at either end. This new development will allow the Gamechanger / Gamechanger Pro to be even easier to move from shelf to shelf and room to room.
