Our secret: we invest in R&D

Our success is based on our commitment to research which leads to efficient and profitable solutions for the client.

At SERFRUIT, we have to highly specialised departments that carry out the R&D activity.

  • R&D design. A team consisting of industrial engineers, electricians and industrial draughtsmen who are experts in the use of 3D software. They design the machines and evaluate the different prototypes before manufacturing them. They also have a specific simulation programme for checking the suitability of each piece of equipment.
  • The programming and computing department is made up of industrial engineers, electricians and computer technicians who simulate the sequences and programme the control system.

We multiply our potential

At SERFRUIT, we collaborate with institutions and companies at the cutting edge of technology in order to generate synergies when applying experience and technological knowledge to the field of industrial automation.

We belong to the Foundation for Auxiliary Agricultural Technology (TECNOVA) as a founding member and we jointly participate in technological innovation projects. We also maintain links with universities and the research field: the Polytechnic University of Valencia, the University of Almería, the Tecnalia Research & Innovation Foundation and the University of Girona, to name a few.

We are currently developing the AGRONAUTA project, as the coordinating company, within the framework of the CIEN Strategic Programme, managed by the Centre for Industrial Technological Development (CDTI) of the Ministry of Economy and Finance, with ERDF funding.

Additionally, we work closely with other leading companies in order to offer integral and innovative solutions.
