Multi-Function Platform

RM21 Multi-Functional Robotic Mower

All-in-One Solution for a New Era of Turf Care.

One machine. Four jobs.

The RM21 is a platform, not a single-purpose mower. Swap the kit on the back and the same machine mows, marks, collects and picks — so one capital purchase covers work that would otherwise need four.

BP01 Ball Picker Kit

BP01 Ball Picker Kit

Automated driving-range ball collection with full-basket detection and auto-return.

LM01 Line Marker Kit

LM01 Line Marker Kit

Turns the RM21 into a line marking robot — pitch markings without a string line in sight.

GC01 Grass Collector Kit

GC01 Grass Collector Kit

High-capacity collection for clippings, leaves and debris in a single pass.

DB01 Dew Brush Kit

DB01 Dew Brush Kit

Clears dew from fairways and greens ahead of play, first thing in the morning.

Smart control

Intelligent Path Planning

The RM21 plans its own route across the working area, adjusting line spacing and turn patterns to cut cleanly with minimal overlap and no missed strips.

Intelligent Path Planning

Multi-Zone Management

Split a venue into separate zones and the RM21 works through them in sequence — several fields, or several areas of one course, from a single map.

Multi-Zone Management

Remote App Monitoring

Track position, battery, progress and job status from your phone. Start, pause and reassign work without walking the site.

Remote App Monitoring

Built to keep working — and to keep out of trouble

RTK gives centimetre accuracy in the open. LiDAR keeps the machine located when the sky is blocked. Together they cover the conditions that stop other robots.

No Signal Worries

RTK and LiDAR fusion keeps the RM21 accurately positioned under tree canopy, beside grandstands and in the places GNSS alone drops out.

No Signal Worries

Multi-Layer Safety Protection

360° LiDAR obstacle detection backed by dual collision protection — the machine sees people, equipment and stray balls, and stops.

Multi-Layer Safety Protection

Smart Docking & Charging

The RM21 returns to its dock, charges and resumes where it left off. Fast charging turns a full battery around in three hours.

Smart Docking & Charging

Animal-friendly obstacle detection

Night mowing is where robots meet wildlife. The RM21’s detection is tuned to recognise small animals — hedgehogs among them — and stop rather than run them over.

Detection performance varies with conditions; FJD does not present this as a guarantee.
