Professional mowing, Answers right away
Football
Can a single robot mow several football pitches?
Yes, every football pitch can be considered a mowing zone. You can adjust the mowing times of your professional mowing robot according to when the pitch is occupied by players.
How do you programme mowing according to football pitch occupancy?
You can schedule your robotic football pitch mower to take account of match times or training periods.
Do ECHO Robotics® robots respect the marking lines?
Yes, your football stadium robotic mower preserves the marking lines 100%.
What is the recommended frequency of mowing for a football pitch?
Depending on the vigour of the growth, the weather, and how the turf is used, program your robotic mower for 2 to 4 mowings a week. Your football pitch is sustainably fertilised thanks to the perfect mulching guaranteed by ECHO Robotics® robots.
Are robotic football pitch mowers weatherproof?
Yes, our robotic mowers are designed to operate in rain, cold and harsh conditions.
Golf
Are ball picker robots compatible with all driving ranges?
Yes, they adapt to most driving ranges, whatever the configuration. You can also install a drop pit area. The system is fully automated, from collection from the driving range to the ball dispenser.
How many balls can the golf robot pick up in 24 hours?
With its 350-ball tank, the robotic golf ball picker collects up to 12,000 balls, depending on the surface and density.
How does the robot avoid obstacles on a golf course?
Your robotic golf course mower uses safety sensors and GPS-RTK configuration to go around obstacles automatically. Wisecut technology allows your professional robotic mower to mow the entire course, from teeboxes to aprons.
Can you use a robotic mower and a ball picker robot at the same time?
Yes, it's even the ideal combination. Your robotic mowers work simultaneously and silently to avoid disturbing the players. Let your robotic golf course mowers work 24/7 while you monitor their performance remotely.
Do robotic mowers work on fairways and the rough?
Yes, ECHO Robotics® professional robotic mowers feature the unique Wisecut technology. They automatically adjust their cutting height (from 10 mm) to mow all areas of your golf course. Teebox, fairways, semi-rough, rough and aprons.

Yes, ECHO Robotics® professional robotic mowersare designed to operate in rain, cold and harsh conditions.
Sports fields
Are robots suitable for rugby pitches or baseball diamonds?
Yes, they are suitable for the maintenance of any natural grass sports field. They ensure regular, precise and sustainable mowing. THE guarantee of an even surface, ideal for sports. Automation frees up time for other maintenance tasks and keeps the grass in top condition, whatever the sport.
How safe is it for athletes and the public?
All our professional mowing robots and ball-picking robots are equipped with safety sensors. They guarantee an immediate stop in the event of an obstacle or human presence.
Is the automatic mower for professionals weatherproof?
Yes, ECHO Robotics® robotic mowers are robust and designed to work in rain, cold and harsh conditions.
Parks and gardens
Are robotic mowers suitable for public parks and municipal green spaces?
Yes, professional large-area robotic mowers large area are perfect for automatic maintenance of large parks, even complex ones. Request your ECHO Robotics® demo.
How do you manage mowing areas with many trees or obstacles?
Configuration via GPS-RTK allows all known obstacles to be defined. What's more, thanks to the safety sonar units, your professional mowing robot detects unexpected obstacles.
What is the annual electricity consumption for a park?
Your professional robotic mower consumes very little energy: approximately 580 kWh/year for 10,000 m². This is a very low cost compared to conventional lawnmowers.
Can the robots operate on sloped municipal land?
Yes, your large-area robotic mower without boundary wires mows your lawns up to a 45 % slope, according to the model.
Are ECHO Robotics® mowers quiet enough for residential areas?
Yes, our professional robotic mowers boast a noise level of just 52 dB(A), the equivalent of a quiet room or birdsong.
Are ECHO Robotics® robots weatherproof?
Yes, our robotic mowers are designed to work in rain, cold and harsh conditions.
Extreme sites
Do ECHO Robotics® robots work on rough or very uneven ground?
Yes, thanks to their appropriate drive wheels and sensors. Find out which robotic mower for difficult terrain and extreme sites is right for you with our selection toolfor professionals.
Are ECHO Robotics® robots suitable for airports?
Yes, automated mowing is the ideal solution for airports and airfields. No need for human intervention or additional machinery on less accessible terrain.
Are ECHO Robotics® robots suitable for power plants?
Yes, automated mowing is the ideal solution for power stations. No more need for human intervention on complex terrain, with the work-related risks that would entail.
Are the robots protected against theft or vandalism?
Without a connection to your application, your ECHO Robotics® robotic mower will no longer have GPS-RTK positioning. So it won't work. A solid safety feature. Not to mention your personal PIN code and a robust chassis to resist any attempts at vandalism.
How weather-resistant are ECHO Robotics® robots?
ECHO Robotics® robots are designed to operate efficiently in rain, cold or other harsh weather conditions.
- Their electronic components are protected, so they continue to mow even in wet weather.
- Sensitive components are insulated to prevent malfunctions caused by the weather.
- The mechanical parts are designed to withstand impacts, corrosion and harsh conditions.
Companies & large areas
How do you automate the maintenance of green spaces around a business?
ECHO Robotics® large-area robotic mowers provide autonomous, regular mowing without human intervention. Find out which robotic mower is right for you with our selection tool for professionals and businesses.
Can you manage several robots on the same industrial site?
Yes, large-area professional robotic mowers can work together in a fleet. ECHO Robotics® multi-robot management is easy using the application or portal.
How can you monitor status and performance remotely?
As a professional, you have Connect, the unique management application for the new generation of GPS-RTK robotic mowers. Professional automatic mowers are now even more intuitive and efficient to learn to use and control.
Are robotic mowers compatible with very large areas (> 10,000 m²)?
Yes, our large-area professional robotic mowers cover up to 75,000 m². Ask for your personalised quotation to find out the price of your 10,000m² robotic mower.
GPS-RTK / Wisenav®
What is GPS-RTK technology?
GPS-RTK enables satellite positioning with centimetre-level accuracy, with real-time corrections transmitted by a ground reference station. The new generation of ECHO Robotics® GPS-RTK robotic mowers uses this technology in combination with Wisenav® for an installation without boundary wires and Wisecut for automatic cutting height adjustment.
What are the advantages of GPS-RTK for mowing?
- Centimetre cutting accuracy
- Straight trajectories, uniform strips and aesthetics
- Simplified installation without boundary wires
- Uniform lawn, professional result
What is the purpose of the Wisenav® option on a professional robotic mower?
Wisenav® allows the robot to mow with precision thanks to GPS-RTK: it works without boundary wires, via virtual zones and fully automated navigation with centimetre accuracy. Opt for Wisenav® technology and enjoy a complete automatic mowing system for your grounds.
