Packaging machine - Kourim, Czech Republic - Preserved Machines on Public Display on Waymarking.com

Technically remarkable plant for planting fruit seedlings comes from the once famous Jaroslav Veselý Kindergarten in Molitorov near Kourim. It was made in the first third of the 20th century, and was used in the company along with another similar, but smaller machine, which probably was not preserved. The machines were used to tighten the bundles of straw-wrapped trees that protected the seedlings when transporting by rail.

The machine is on display in Open-air Museum in Kourim.

Stroj na balení sazenic ovocných stromku
Technicky pozoruhodný stroj na balení sazenic ovocných stromku pochází z kdysi velmi proslulého školkarského podniku Jaroslava Veselého v Molitorove u Kourimi. Zhotoven byl v první tretine 20. století, a v podniku byl používán spolecne s dalším podobným, ale menším strojem, který se pravdepodobne nezachoval. Stroje sloužily k utahování úvazu balíku stromku ovinutých slámou, která chránila sazenice pri transportu železnicí.
