Groundcare Automation Systems

Groundcare automation systems are transforming how large outdoor spaces—like golf courses, sports pitches, parks, and estates—are maintained. These systems use robotics, sensors, and smart software to handle tasks like mowing, turf management, and even ball collection with minimal human input.

Here are a few standout examples:

  • Robotic Mowers: Companies like AMS Robotics offer autonomous mowers that can maintain up to 19 acres with precision. These are ideal for golf courses, sports fields, and large properties, reducing labour costs and fuel usage.

  • Smart Powertrain Solutions: Lancereal provides bespoke electric and engine-driven systems for groundcare machinery, including gear drives and motor controllers—key components for automating traditional equipment.

  • Fleet Management & Remote Monitoring: Many systems now include GPS tracking, app-based controls, and AI-powered scheduling to optimize performance and reduce downtime.

The borough of East Retford was enlarged in 1878 to include Ordsall, West Retford and part of the parish of Clarborough. The East Retford constituency was a noted example of a rotten borough, being effectively controlled by local landowners the Dukes of Newcastle until reformed in the early nineteenth century.[2] Retford and the surrounding area was also a centre of Nonconformism.
