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.
Tadcaster is a market town and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England, 15 miles (24 km) north-east of Leeds and 10 miles (16 km) south-west of York.
Its historical importance from Roman times onward was largely as the lowest road crossing-point on the River Wharfe until the construction of the A64 Tadcaster by-pass some 660 yards (600 m) to the south, in 1978. There are two rail crossings downstream of the town before the Wharfe joins the River Ouse near Cawood. Thanks to its position on the banks of the River Wharfe parts of the town adjacent to the bridge are prone to flooding.[3]
The town was part of the West Riding of Yorkshire until 1974, but is now part of North Yorkshire.[4] Tadcaster is twinned with Saint-Chély-d'Apcher in France.
