Description
AIGRO UP is an autonomous tool carrier that can perform tasks such as weeding and mowing. It is designed to be lightweight and yet powerful enough to work for up to 10 hours between charge cycles. AIGRO UP has been developed with simplicity and reliability in mind, making it an affordable solution for mechanical weed control and mowing.
Drive train type
The robot is available in 3- and 4- wheeled versions.
Characteristics
Hitch lifting capacity is 100 kg, lifting height >150 mm.
Navigation system
The robot navigates by combination of RTK-gps and local proximity sensing of the crop row. The GPS is only needed for switching rows and navigating between work areas. This allows our machines to reliably follow plant rows in situations with unreliable GPS signals, such as under foliage. Mechanical safety bumper sensors are provided.
