Yanmar Introduces New Autonomous Vineyard Robot

YANMAR has introduced a new, technological breakthrough for wine producers – a vineyard robot which offers a host of benefits for wine growing operations of all sizes including enhanced safety, productivity, cost reductions and versatility.

YV01 is an autonomous spraying robot which can transform the way vineyards operate and is backed by YANMAR’s long-established, cost-effective technology and quality.

YV01 will be on show at the VITeff International Sparkling Wine Technology Exhibition from October 12-15 at Epernay, France.

Due to its light weight and compact dimensions YV01 can climb and descend slopes of up to 45% and won’t compress soils in any weather conditions. Furthermore, it is easily transportable on a small truck or trailer, whilst carrying a high payload of spraying fluids.
