Mobius releases new Concepts in Development preview

Mobius has released its Concepts in Development preview, along with the launch of their newest models of trimming machines. Mobius debuted these new models at the 2024 MJBizCon in Las Vegas, providing attendees with an exclusive first look.

"Mobius is dedicated to advancing the cannabis industry through continuous innovation," said JJ Fabian, Director of Sales and Business Development. "These new trimming solutions showcase our commitment to meeting the evolving needs of our customers, helping them achieve greater productivity and consistent quality while reducing labor demands and costs. Our in-house research and development teams have been iterating on the trimmer designs, ensuring every aspect of each machine is optimized to deliver the best trimming results," said Fabian.

These new trimming innovations come when the global cannabis trimming machines market has projections for a steady growth rate, expected to reach a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 8.5% through 2028. This growth is driven by the rising demand for cannabis-trimming solutions that deliver high-quality products on a commercial scale. With the increasing utilization of automated cannabis processing equipment in the industry, technological advancements and commitment to innovation for cultivators are what will deliver the best results to consumers.

The first of the newest trimmers will be launching this March, featuring Mobius' T-Line, including the TD15 and TD25 dry trimmers. The trimmers are designed to aid the commercial cannabis processing with advanced design, efficiency, and precision. The TD15 and TD25 dry trimmers are purpose-built for dedicated dry trimming, offering customized solutions to accommodate different cannabis types and processing scales, making them highly adaptable to various operational needs.

The T-Line trimmers are GMP-ready with stainless steel construction and are designed to be portable, versatile, and easy to use for any harvesting workflow. The TD15 and TD25 are also vacuum and lubricant-free, ensuring premium top-shelf flower and pure trim. Available in two different sizes, growers can find the trimming capacity that best suits their needs, with the TD15 trimming up to 10 lbs/hour and the TD25 trimming 24 lbs/hour.

For operations requiring even greater capacity for dry trimming, Mobius is unveiling the MD48. This dedicated dry trimmer is optimized for gentle handling and maintains the integrity and quality of cannabis buds while achieving high-speed commercial throughputs. The MD48 will feature a stainless steel body, is washdown-rated, and is ready for use in any GMP-certified facility. This new dry trimmer design allows for faster and easier loading and unloading of the machine, thus reducing downtime in the process. The auto-tensioning shear band technology eliminates the need for any lubricants or vacuums, ensuring the flower remains trichome-rich. The auto-tensioning system also allows for seamless drum removal and swaps for fast, tool-free cleaning, or non-stop trimming action. Easily swap in the optional kief kit for kief extraction without having to re-tension your machine.

Featuring touchscreen control, the MD48 will let the user create trimming recipes, allowing them to track and save settings such as tilt levels, tumbler speeds, and timers. This creates a streamlined workflow for every harvest based on throughputs, strain type, and moisture content, delivering ultra-consistent trimming results with each run. Integrated oscillating technology and tilting features will pitch the unit back and forth, mixing the flower more efficiently and speeding up the trimming process.

After almost 10 years of serving the industry, the flagship Mobius trimmer has also been updated. Now the M108X, this new model has been revamped with all of the same Mobius trimming technology cultivators know and love, with additional upgraded features. The M108X has a fully stainless steel construction for pharmaceutical and food-grade compliance, easily fitting into any GMP facility. With a 50% stronger vacuum, the new M108X will deliver the tightest, hand-quality trim cultivators have ever achieved on a commercial scale. The trimmer will also feature a touchscreen interface for more advanced controls like recipe saving, tandem operation, and conveyor control.
