PUDU GT3 Compact autonomous mower and sweeper
A 36-inch rotary mower that cuts and collects in one pass. With the blades disabled it sweeps walkways, so the same machine works year round.
Where it works
- Smaller turf areas that need a clean finish, with clippings, leaves and light debris collected as it cuts.
- Walkways and paved edges, with the blades off and two sweeping brushes feeding the vacuum intake.
- Several fields or zones, moving between them on pre-mapped routes.
- Sites near people and vehicles, where it slows down, bypasses or stops by risk level.
Day to day
The GT3 runs 4 to 6 hours and covers up to 5 acres on a charge. It maps a site after one autonomous lap and finds the border between turf and paved surfaces; the saved map can be edited for no-go zones and transit paths. A standard charge takes 4 hours, and fast charging is optional at 2 hours. It has an IP66 rating and emergency stops, blade interlocks and automatic lift and tilt braking.
