Pipe-rail system in horticulture
The
BENOMIC S500
has been designed to run on a stable pipe-rail system. This means
that each path between the crops has a track comprising two pipes of the same diameter
with a fixed width between them (centre-to-centre (c.t.c.) size). The pipes are often used
as heating pipes and are supported with fixed spacing between them.
