Summary:Continuing previously developed works, the modular robotic manufacturing cell presented in this paper refers to a third fully automated subsystem dedicated for automated mushroom's harvesting and transport as well as compost bags' automated collecting and transporting outdoors of the production system. The modular robotic manufacturing cell is designed by authors as part of a completely new robotic subsystem allowing septic cultivation condition and respecting food safety standards by completely excluding human operators involvement in the production cycles and allowing controllable and repeatable production cycles by continuously monitoring and adapting of the environment parameters to different production phases (as incubation and fructification are). Key words: mushrooms harvesting, robotic system, virtual prototyping
