Ecorobotix ARA sprayer

Ecorobotix is a rapidly growing company that offers innovative solutions for precision agriculture. Its key product, the ARA smart sprayer, recently debuted in the US market and has already gained popularity due to its high accuracy and significant savings in crop protection products. This device provides ultra-precise spraying, which saves up to 95% of crop protection products, reducing the negative impact on the environment and increasing yields.

The ARA sets itself apart from the competition by uniquely combining Ecorobotix's advanced UHP-Spray-Technology™ with the artificial intelligence-based Plant-by-Plant™ software. In less than 250 milliseconds, this dynamic system “scans” the field, takes real-time images, identifies the specific crops or weeds that the farmer has decided to treat, and delivers extremely precise spraying with an accuracy of 6×6 cm, minimizing the spray plume.

Innovative solutions for precision farming

The ARA sprayer is unique on the market for its ability to spray each plant individually. The spraying accuracy is 6×6 cm, which allows for precise weed detection and avoidance of contact with crops. The ARA system works with a wide range of products: herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, and fertilizers. This makes it a universal solution for agriculture at different stages of the annual cycle. Thanks to its three phases of operation - data collection by cameras, image analysis, and ultra-precise spraying - the technology can significantly reduce farmers' chemical costs.

Savings and environmental friendliness

One of the biggest advantages of the ARA sprayer is the significant savings in plant protection products, which reaches 80-95% depending on the density of weeds in the field. This reduction in the amount of chemicals not only reduces farmers' costs, but also contributes to the preservation of the ecosystem and improves biodiversity. According to the producers, using the ARA sprayer avoids phytotoxicity - the effect of chemicals on the crops themselves, which increases yields. The technology also meets strict environmental standards that are becoming increasingly important in modern agriculture.

Versatility and ease of use

ARA can be used year-round, day and night, and in windy conditions thanks to special protective screens that minimize the drift of the liquid during spraying. The sprayer is suitable for various types of crops, such as sugar beet, rapeseed, corn, lettuce, onions, spinach, and others. Farmers can also use it to treat lawns and pastures. In addition, ARA has a mobile fluid refill system in the field, which greatly simplifies the process of spraying large areas.

The device is controlled using a tablet, which makes working with the sprayer simple and understandable even for those who have no experience with such equipment. All processing data is automatically stored in the cloud, which allows you to track the use of plant protection products and create maps of treated areas.

Technical characteristics

The ARA sprayer has a working width of 6 meters and is capable of processing more than 4 hectares per hour. The maximum processing speed is 7 km/h, which ensures high productivity even on large fields. The system includes 156 nozzles with a spraying accuracy of every 4 cm. Thanks to the presence of two tanks - for water and chemicals - the device can work continuously without the need for frequent stops to replenish the liquid.
