When Automation Hub evaluated the robotic mower market, we looked beyond cutting performance, battery life, and features. We focused on one thing that determines whether an autonomous mower succeeds every day: the network it relies on.
There are many robotic mower manufacturers that require RTK base stations, perimeter wiring, or dedicated antennas installed around your property. While these systems can work, they also add installation costs, maintenance, and potential points of failure. Tree cover, buildings, terrain, and antenna placement can all interfere with the signal, leading to interruptions or inconsistent performance.
Think of it this way: Would you buy the latest smartphone if it constantly lost signal and dropped calls? Probably not. Autonomous robots are no different. Their ability to work consistently depends on having a reliable connection.
That's one of the biggest reasons we chose to become a Kress Robotics dealer.
Kress owns and operates the world's two largest dedicated RTK correction networks, giving its mowers access to an extensive infrastructure designed specifically for precision positioning. Rather than relying on a customer-installed base station, Kress mowers connect to this professionally managed network, providing stable, centimeter-level accuracy across supported coverage areas.
Why does this matter? A stronger RTK network means your mower stays aligned to its planned routes, navigates more consistently, and requires fewer interruptions or manual corrections. The result is improved uptime, cleaner mowing patterns, and a more dependable operation.
At Automation Hub, we believe autonomous equipment should simplify your job—not create more infrastructure to manage. That's why we confidently recommend Kress for customers looking for a scalable, reliable robotic mowing solution built on a network designed for long-term performance.
