Robotics

The Kress RTKn series of robotic lawn mowers are designed to provide precise, efficient, and eco-friendly lawn care solutions. Here are some of the key benefits and savings offered by these advanced mowers:

Benefits of Kress RTKn Robotic Mowers

  1. Precision and Efficiency:

    • Centimeter-Level Accuracy: Guided by satellites, these mowers provide unmatched precision without the need for perimeter wires or stationary antennas on your property. This ensures every blade of grass is cut perfectly

    • Systematic Parallel Line Mowing: The mowers follow a systematic pattern, creating beautifully aligned stripes and maximizing mowing efficiency. This systematic approach allows a single mower to manage large areas effectively​

    • Obstacle Avoidance: Equipped with an integrated Obstacle Avoidance System (OAS), these mowers can navigate complex landscapes and avoid obstacles seamlessly​

  2. Environmental Benefits:

    • Zero Emissions: Kress mowers operate without emitting polluting exhaust fumes or greenhouse gases, making them an eco-friendly alternative to traditional petrol-powered mowers

    • Quiet Operation: These mowers are designed to operate quietly, allowing for lawn maintenance even during night hours without disturbing the surroundings​

  3. Superior Lawn Health:

    • Healthier Grass: Frequent mowing with Kress RTKn mowers promotes a denser, healthier grass canopy. This reduces weed propagation and diminishes the need for chemical herbicides. The precise cuts produce ultra-fine clippings that decompose quickly, returning nutrients to the soil and improving its structure​

    • Minimized Soil Compaction: The lightweight design of these mowers minimizes soil compaction, preserving the soil's ability to absorb water and nutrients, which in turn boosts the lawn's resilience to environmental stresses​

  4. Convenience and Control:

    • App Control and Management: The Kress app allows users to create maps, set mowing schedules, manage charging stations, and customize working zones easily. The app can handle multiple mowers simultaneously, making it ideal for managing extensive grounds​

    • Advanced Features: Features like electronic cutting height adjustment, auto-leveling blade systems, and energy-saving regenerative braking systems enhance user convenience and mower performance​

Savings on Time and Money

  1. Labor and Maintenance Cost Savings:

    • Reduced Labor Costs: With automated mowing, the need for manual labor is eliminated, resulting in significant cost savings. This is particularly beneficial for large properties and commercial facilities​

    • Minimal Maintenance: Kress robotic mowers require less maintenance compared to petrol mowers. There are no oil changes, spark plugs, or air filters to replace, and the brush
