Husqvarna Automower 560 EPOS Commercial Robotic Lawn Mower

Commercial Wire-Free Robotic Mower with EPOS, Radar & Optional AI Vision

$5,999.99

The Husqvarna Automower® 560 EPOS® is a professional autonomous mower built for commercial turf operations including sports fields, schools and universities, municipalities, parks, corporate campuses, hospitals, resorts, golf facilities, driving ranges and other professionally maintained properties.

Unlike a conventional robotic mower designed primarily for residential lawns, the 560 EPOS is engineered around professional fleet operation. It combines Husqvarna EPOS® wire-free RTK-GNSS positioning, systematic pattern mowing, radar obstacle detection, a floating commercial cutting system, five-blade cutting disc, Husqvarna Fleet Services™ and compatibility with Husqvarna's optional AI-assisted Vision Technology Accessory.

The 560 EPOS can maintain up to 1.5 acres in 24 hours in Sports 24 mode or 3 acres in 48 hours in Standard 48 mode, allowing commercial operators to automate repetitive mowing while grounds crews concentrate on higher-value turf and facility work.

Add the optional Husqvarna Vision Technology Accessory and the mower gains an AI-assisted camera capable of recognizing and avoiding objects including balls, animals, clothing and standing water, with infrared illumination supporting operation at night.

For professional turf managers looking to automate mowing without sacrificing control over cut height, patterns, work areas or schedules, the Automower 560 EPOS provides a highly configurable commercial autonomous mowing platform.

Husqvarna Automower 560 EPOS at a Glance

Commercial Autonomous Mowing – Up to 3 Acres

The Automower 560 EPOS is designed around continuous professional operation rather than the traditional idea of mowing a property once per week.

Husqvarna provides two important capacity ratings:

Standard 48

Up to 3 acres in 48 hours

Sports 24

Up to 1.5 acres in 24 hours

This makes the 560 EPOS suitable for applications where turf needs to remain consistently maintained rather than periodically cut back.

Potential applications include:

• Sports fields
• Schools
• Universities
• Parks
• Municipal properties
• Corporate campuses
• Hospitals
• Hotels and resorts
• Commercial properties
• Golf facilities
• Driving ranges
• Practice facilities

For larger properties, multiple robotic mowers can be deployed as a fleet.

Optional AI Vision Technology

A Commercial Robotic Mower That Can Understand What It's Seeing

The Automower 560 EPOS comes standard with radar-based object detection and is compatible with Husqvarna's optional Vision Technology Accessory.

The Vision accessory adds an AI-assisted camera that allows the mower to visually identify and classify objects it encounters.

Husqvarna specifically identifies objects including:

• Balls
• Animals
• Clothing
• Standing water
• Other recognizable obstacles

Rather than relying exclusively on conventional obstacle sensing, AI-assisted vision provides another layer of environmental awareness.

That makes Vision particularly interesting for sports fields, schools, universities, golf facilities and other properties where objects may frequently be left on the turf.

AI Vision for Sports Fields

A sports field isn't an empty lawn.

Objects can be left behind after practices, games and events, including:

• Soccer balls
• Footballs
• Baseballs
• Softballs
• Tennis balls
• Training equipment
• Clothing
• Towels
• Other field objects

Husqvarna specifically states that its AI-assisted Vision technology can classify balls and clothing.

This gives the 560 EPOS with Vision Technology another layer of object awareness when operating around active sports facilities.

As with any vision-based system, detection can depend on the object's size, visibility, environmental conditions and positioning, so individual object types should not be treated as guaranteed detections unless specifically confirmed by Husqvarna.

What About Golf Balls?

This is an important question for golf applications.

Husqvarna states that its AI-assisted Vision system recognizes the object category “balls.” However, Husqvarna's current documentation does not specifically guarantee golf-ball detection.

For that reason, Automation Hub does not represent golf-ball avoidance as a guaranteed capability without application testing.

The underlying technology is nevertheless very interesting for golf facilities because the mower combines:

EPOS Positioning + Radar + Optional AI Vision

For golf applications where ball avoidance is important, Automation Hub can evaluate the application and test performance under representative operating conditions.

AI Vision Works at Night

Commercial autonomous mowing doesn't need to stop when the sun goes down.

The optional Vision Technology Accessory incorporates infrared illumination, allowing its AI-assisted camera system to continue detecting and classifying objects during nighttime operation.

This allows facilities to schedule autonomous mowing during lower-traffic periods such as:

• Overnight
• Early mornings
• After sporting events
• Between practices
• Outside business hours
• Before golfers or guests arrive

For commercial operations, extending the available mowing window can be just as valuable as increasing mower speed.

Radar + AI Vision + EPOS

The 560 EPOS uses multiple technologies for different jobs.

EPOS

Determines where the mower is and where it is permitted to operate.

Radar

Helps detect physical objects and obstacles around the mower.

Optional AI Vision

Helps the mower visually recognize and classify what it is seeing.

Together, the platform can combine:

Centimeter-Level Satellite Positioning + Radar Object Detection + AI-Assisted Computer Vision

This multi-sensor architecture is particularly valuable in dynamic commercial environments.

Husqvarna EPOS® Wire-Free Technology

The 560 EPOS eliminates the need to establish its primary mowing boundaries using traditional buried perimeter wire.

Husqvarna's Exact Positioning Operating System (EPOS®) uses satellite-based RTK-GNSS technology to provide positioning accuracy down to approximately 2 cm under suitable conditions.

Virtual boundaries can be used to establish:

• Work areas
• Stay-out zones
• Transport paths
• Charging areas
• Maintenance points
• Different mowing schedules
• Different cutting heights
• Different mowing patterns

This gives commercial operators substantially more flexibility than a fixed physical boundary-wire installation.

EPOS Reference Station Required

The Automower 560 EPOS requires compatible EPOS positioning infrastructure.

The EPOS reference station is sold separately and is not included in the $5,999.99 mower price.

Automation Hub can help determine the correct EPOS configuration based on:

• Property size
• Number of robotic mowers
• Satellite visibility
• Buildings
• Trees
• Terrain
• Charging-station location
• Required mowing areas

For commercial projects, we recommend evaluating the entire property before determining reference-station placement and mower quantity.

Selectable Professional Mowing Patterns

The 560 EPOS doesn't have to produce the random appearance traditionally associated with robotic lawn mowers.

Using EPOS, grounds managers can select systematic mowing patterns to change the visual presentation of the turf.

Patterns can include:

• Parallel lines
• Diamonds
• Triangles
• Checkerboard

This makes the 560 EPOS especially attractive for sports fields, schools, universities, golf properties, corporate campuses and other high-visibility turf.

Customized Work Areas

Commercial properties rarely have one uniform mowing requirement.

The 560 EPOS allows operators to establish multiple customized work areas with individual settings.

Different areas can have their own:

• Mowing schedule
• Cutting height
• Mowing pattern

For example, a university could configure an athletic area differently from surrounding campus turf.

A golf facility could establish different operating schedules for separate maintained areas.

One autonomous mower can therefore perform different jobs depending on where it is working.

Temporary Stay-Out Zones

Need the robot to temporarily avoid an area?

Instead of modifying a physical installation, operators can create temporary stay-out zones digitally.

This can be useful for:

• Construction
• Seeding
• Turf repair
• Aeration
• Irrigation work
• Sporting events
• Outdoor events
• Temporary structures
• Golf tournaments
• Damaged turf
• Areas requiring recovery

When the restriction is no longer needed, the digital stay-out zone can be removed.

EPOS Guidance

The 560 EPOS can automatically calculate efficient routes to and from the charging station.

EPOS Guidance can also vary the mower's route across the property rather than repeatedly driving exactly the same path.

This helps reduce unwanted tracks and repeated traffic patterns in professionally maintained turf.

Floating Commercial Cutting System

Professional turf isn't perfectly flat.

The 560 EPOS uses a spring-loaded floating cutting system designed to adapt to changes in ground contour and unevenness.

As the terrain changes underneath the mower, the cutting system can better follow the surface to help maintain a consistent cut.

This is especially valuable for:

• Sports turf
• Golf applications
• Rolling terrain
• Uneven commercial lawns
• Professionally maintained landscapes

5-Blade Commercial Cutting Disc

The 560 EPOS uses a commercial five-blade cutting disc rather than the three-blade system commonly found on residential Automower models.

The commercial platform uses five Enhance HSS pivoting blades, providing strong cutting performance while extending the interval between blade changes.

Cutting Width

10.2 inches

Cutting Height

0.8–2.4 inches

Cutting Height Adjustment

Electric

The ability to cut down to approximately 0.8 inch is particularly important for certain sports-turf and golf applications.

Quick-Release Cutting Disc

Commercial equipment needs to be serviceable quickly.

The 560 EPOS uses a one-bolt quick-release cutting disc.

This allows maintenance personnel to quickly remove the entire cutting assembly.

A facility can even keep a second cutting disc prepared with fresh blades so the complete assembly can be swapped and the mower returned to operation while the removed disc is serviced separately.

That can help reduce commercial downtime.

Handles Slopes Up to 50%

The Automower 560 EPOS is designed to handle slopes up to:

50%

Husqvarna also uses a pivoting front-wheel axle to help maintain wheel contact with the ground and improve traction on uneven and hilly surfaces.

This makes the mower suitable for properties with more terrain variation than a perfectly flat athletic field.

Maintenance Point – Let the Robot Come to You

One of the smartest commercial features of the 560 EPOS is the ability to designate a maintenance point on the digital map.

When requested, the mower can autonomously travel to that location and wait.

That location might be:

• Maintenance shop
• Equipment staging area
• Wash area
• Loading location
• Service area
• Storage location

Instead of maintenance personnel searching a large property for the mower, the mower can come to the maintenance team.

appDrive Remote Control

Grounds personnel can manually operate the 560 EPOS from a smartphone using appDrive.

This can be useful when:

• Moving between workspaces
• Performing installation
• Moving to a service area
• Loading the mower
• Repositioning the machine
• Performing maintenance

The robot remains autonomous during normal operation while still providing manual control when personnel need it.

Dock by Wire

Although the 560 EPOS uses satellite positioning for normal mowing, Husqvarna also provides Dock by Wire.

A local wire corridor can guide the mower to a charging station positioned in an area where satellite reception is limited.

This provides additional flexibility to locate a charging station:

• Under a roof
• Near a building
• Inside a protected area
• In a garage-type enclosure
• Where satellite visibility is otherwise limited

It's an important feature for real-world commercial installations where the ideal protected charging location may not have ideal GNSS reception.

Husqvarna Fleet Services™

Managing one robot is useful.

Managing an entire autonomous mowing fleet from one platform is where commercial robotics becomes much more powerful.

The 560 EPOS integrates with Husqvarna Fleet Services™, allowing professional operators to remotely monitor and manage their equipment.

Depending on configuration, operators can manage:

• Individual robotic mowers
• Multiple robots
• Operating status
• Mowing schedules
• Cutting heights
• Work areas
• Mowing patterns
• Location
• Alerts
• Fleet information

This makes the platform scalable for organizations operating multiple autonomous mowers.

FOTA – Firmware Over the Air

Firmware updates can be delivered remotely through Husqvarna Fleet Services.

FOTA – Firmware Over The Air reduces the need for physical intervention simply to update mower software.

Supported updates can provide improvements and new functionality as Husqvarna continues developing the platform.

Enhanced Remote Start

If a mower experiences an unplanned interruption, authorized operators can remotely restart supported operation through the mobile platform rather than necessarily traveling across the property to physically interact with the machine.

For large campuses and commercial facilities, eliminating unnecessary trips to a mower can save meaningful staff time.

Built-In Theft Protection

The 560 EPOS incorporates commercial security features including:

• PIN protection
• Alarm
• GPS tracking
• GeoFence functionality
• Fleet-based location monitoring

If the mower is removed from its authorized area, connected fleet tools can help operators identify its location.

Warning Lights for Public Environments

The 560 EPOS includes integrated warning lights.

Pulsating or solid illumination increases awareness of the mower while it operates, particularly during nighttime operation.

That's especially relevant in environments such as:

• Universities
• Schools
• Parks
• Hospitals
• Resorts
• Municipal properties
• Commercial campuses
• Sports complexes

Designed for Professional Weather Exposure

Commercial autonomous equipment needs to work around the property schedule—not wait for perfect weather.

The 560 EPOS is designed for professional outdoor operation throughout the growing season with normal cleaning and maintenance.

Its free-hanging cutting blades can continue mowing during rainy conditions.

The mower carries an:

IPX5 Protection Rating

and can be cleaned with a water hose.

180° Professional Service Position

The mower's chassis incorporates a rubber support that allows it to rest securely in an upside-down 180° service position.

This gives maintenance personnel easier access for:

• Blade changes
• Cutting-disc service
• Cleaning
• Inspections
• Routine maintenance

The design also helps protect the mower body while being serviced.

Safety Sensors

The 560 EPOS incorporates multiple safety systems.

If the mower is lifted or tips over, the cutting function is designed to shut down immediately.

Its blade system is also positioned away from the outer edge of the mower chassis, while object-sensing technology helps the mower respond to obstacles encountered during operation.

Commercial Applications

Sports Fields & Athletic Facilities

The 560 EPOS is particularly compelling for:

• Soccer fields
• Football practice fields
• Baseball complexes
• Softball complexes
• Athletic campuses
• Multi-field sports facilities

The combination of systematic striping, 0.8-inch minimum cutting height, floating cutting system, EPOS navigation, radar and optional AI Vision capable of recognizing balls makes sports turf one of the strongest applications for this platform.

Golf Courses & Clubs

Potential golf applications include:

• Driving ranges
• Practice facilities
• Clubhouse grounds
• Rough areas
• Peripheral turf
• Other compatible maintained areas

For golf, Automation Hub can evaluate cut height, acreage, slopes, mowing frequency, traffic, satellite visibility and object-detection requirements before recommending a platform.

Schools & Universities

Automate repetitive mowing while grounds personnel focus on:

• Field preparation
• Irrigation
• Landscaping
• Edging
• Repairs
• Turf health
• Higher-value grounds work

Municipalities & Parks

Virtual boundaries and temporary stay-out zones provide flexibility around:

• Festivals
• Construction
• Events

Hospitals & Healthcare Campuses

Quiet electric autonomous mowing can help reduce dependence on conventional mowing equipment around large healthcare campuses.

Corporate Campuses & Commercial Facilities

Maintain highly visible turf consistently while reallocating grounds labor to other tasks.

Hotels & Resorts

Autonomous mowing can operate during low-traffic periods while selectable mowing patterns maintain a professional appearance.

Why Autonomous Mowing?

The goal of commercial robotic mowing isn't necessarily to eliminate the grounds crew.

It's to automate one of the most repetitive tasks the crew performs.

Instead of spending hours driving a mower over the same turf every week, skilled personnel can focus on:

• Trimming
• Edging
• Irrigation
• Landscaping
• Turf health
• Field preparation
• Course setup
• Equipment maintenance
• Repairs
• Customer-facing areas
• Other work that still requires people

The autonomous mower handles repetitive mowing while your team handles the work that requires human judgment.
