Husqvarna Launches Advanced Robotic Lawn Mowers for Turf Care Professionals
Husqvarna's New Robotic Mowers: A Game Changer in Turf Management
Husqvarna, recognized globally for its innovative outdoor power products and robotics, has announced the launch of two cutting-edge robotic lawn mowers aimed at the commercial sector. The new models, Automower® 535 AWD EPOS and Automower® 580L EPOS, are set to revolutionize turf management, especially for golf courses, sports fields, and maintenance facilities. This exciting development is aligned with Husqvarna’s commitment to advancing autonomous solutions in landscaping.
Set to debut at the upcoming GCSAA Conference and Trade Show in San Diego, California, these mowers reflect a forward-thinking approach to improving efficiency and ease of use in turf care.
Features of the New Models
Both the Automower® 535 AWD EPOS and Automower® 580L EPOS are designed with state-of-the-art technology that offers landscapers and turf professionals enhanced capabilities.
The Automower® 535 AWD EPOS is tailored for uneven terrains, making it particularly suited for medium-sized commercial landscapes that include hills. It boasts an All Wheel Drive system that enables it to handle slopes up to 70% (or 35 degrees), making it a premier choice for challenging environments. Additionally, it is equipped with a five-blade cutting disc and features like FOTA (Firmware Over-The-Air) updates and warning lights, which contribute to its versatility and efficiency. This model can maintain areas covering up to 0.9 acres.
On the other hand, the Automower® 580L EPOS is engineered to handle larger expanses, with the capacity to manage high-quality grass over two acres. Ideal for maintaining golf course roughs, fairways, and sports fields, this powerful mower features an 80W cutting motor along with adjustable cutting heights down to 10mm. Its rotating wheel brushes and advanced obstacle-avoidance technology enhance its functioning, while a robust rubberized exterior offers protection against golf ball impacts.
