Dutch Revolution in the Field: Agxeed Introduces Powerful Autonomous AgBot T2 7-Series Robot

Dutch company Agxeed is expanding its lineup of autonomous robots by introducing the new AgBot T2 7-series model with 230 horsepower. The new robot is designed for large-scale arable farms and open-field vegetable operations that already actively use wide-span implements.

New Level of Power and Performance

Agxeed, as promised earlier this year, has introduced a new, significantly more powerful version of its tracked robot AgBot. The T2 7-series model is equipped with a Deutz diesel engine delivering 170 kW (230 hp) with a torque of 910 Nm. By comparison, the existing 5.115T2 model has a power output of only 115 kW (156 hp), making the newcomer almost twice as powerful.

The increased power enables the robot to work efficiently on large areas with heavy wide-span implements. As with the previous model, the diesel engine drives a generator that provides electrical power to the entire machine, including the front and rear power take-off shafts. Both PTOs feature stepless speed adjustment ranging from 850 to 1050 rpm.

Tracked System and Versatility

The AgBot T2 7-series robot is equipped with rubber tracks measuring 1.82 meters in length. The base track width is 61 centimeters, but versions with widths of 76 and 91 centimeters are also available. The machine remains within three meters of working width, which is important for road travel and field operations.

Variable track width from 1.5 to 3.2 meters allows the robot to be adapted to different working conditions and crop types. Thanks to the tracked system, ground pressure remains below 30 kPa, ensuring soil structure preservation even with intensive use.

Impressive Lifting Capacity

The new AgBot T2 7-series demonstrates impressive lifting capacity figures. The front hitch can lift up to 4,000 kg, while the rear hitch can handle up to 9,000 kg. This power allows for the attachment of virtually any agricultural implement, including heavy ploughs, cultivators, and seeders.

The hydraulic system provides flow rates of up to 170 liters of oil per minute at 210 bar pressure, sufficient for operating the most demanding trailed and mounted implements. The machine's own weight is approximately 9,000 kg, providing necessary traction when working with heavy implements.

Autonomy and Safety System

The AgBot T2 7-series is equipped with a complete package of safety systems for autonomous operation. The complex includes:

• Geo-Fencing system that limits the robot's working area
• LIDAR sensors for obstacle detection
• Radar and ultrasonic sensors
• Sensor bumper
• Front and rear surveillance cameras
• Emergency stop buttons around the machine perimeter
• Light and sound signaling

RTK-GNSS navigation provides movement accuracy of up to 2.5 cm, enabling the most precise field operations without operator participation. The robot can operate in a speed range from 0 to 13.5 km/h with 42 cm ground clearance.

Digital Control and Planning

Robot control is carried out through the cloud-based TraxWise/AgXeed Portal platform. The operator can:

• Plan tasks days, weeks, or months in advance
• Create different scenarios for each operation
• Optimize movement routes
• Receive real-time performance data
• View work history with details on time, fuel consumption, and application data
• Remotely control and monitor operations via web portal

The system automatically plans the most efficient route, ensuring complete coverage of the designated area with minimal overlap. Full ISOBUS support enables variable rate application, mapping, and data collection.

Energy Efficiency and Operating Duration

A 350-liter fuel tank and 30-liter AdBlue tank provide up to 20 hours of continuous operation, depending on workload. The diesel-electric hybrid drive provides additional efficiency advantages compared to traditional tractors.

According to tests of the previous 5.115T2 model, which set a world record for autonomous ploughing (20.8 ha in 24 hours), fuel consumption was 18.4 l/ha when working with a five-furrow plough. The new, more powerful model is capable of working with even heavier implements and at higher speeds.

Other AgBot Models from Agxeed

In addition to the new flagship T2 7-series model, Agxeed offers several other autonomous robot variants for different needs:

AgBot 5.115T2 - the existing tracked model with 156 hp that has proven itself well in the market. It is equipped with a 4.1-liter four-cylinder Deutz Stage 5 engine with 610 Nm torque. The machine weighs 7.8 tonnes, the front hitch can lift 3-4 tonnes, and the rear up to 8 tonnes. The hydraulics provide 85 l/min flow rate. This model set the world record for autonomous ploughing in the UK, ploughing over 50 acres in 24 hours.

AgBot 2.055.W3 - a three-wheeled model with 75 hp, designed specifically for work in orchards and vineyards. The narrow body allows easy maneuvering between rows of trees and grape vines.

AgBot 2.055.W4 - a four-wheeled model with 75 hp, ideal for livestock farms and small arable operations. It provides good stability and application versatility.

All AgBot models support work with Category II front and Category III rear mounted implements, making them compatible with a wide range of equipment available on farms.
